Hades II review
Hades II is a sequel that out-designs its masterpiece
More systems, more weapons, and somehow even tighter.
9.4out of 10
Supergiant had no business improving on Hades, and yet. Melinoë's Omega moves add a layer of resource management that makes every room a decision.
What's new
- Incantations and the crossroads give you real meta-progression choices
- Two divergent routes keep runs fresh deep into the hundreds
It's already one of my most-played roguelites, and I've played a lot of them.
The good
- Omega moves add real decisions
- Two routes keep runs fresh
- Great music and art
The bad
- Slow start before the systems open up
