Hades (Nintendo Switch)

Hades is a rogue-like dungeon crawler for Nintendo Switch, published by Supergiant Games and released on 17 September 2020. You hack and slash your way out of the Underworld, defying the god of the dead, and the game comes as a single-player experience on a physical game card.

Defy the god of the dead

The premise is plain and powerful: you are trying to escape the Underworld, and the god of the dead stands in your way. Each attempt is a fresh run at breaking out, fighting your way forward with hack-and-slash combat.

Hades is listed in the Action, Adventure and RPG genres and rated PEGI 12. The rogue-like structure of the dungeon crawl is its defining idea, which means failure is part of the loop and every attempt teaches you something new.
