Hades is a 2020 action roguelike from Supergiant Games set in the Greek Underworld, priced at $24.99. The game features narrative-branching storytelling, relationship-sim elements, and weapon-switching across six distinct armaments, with roguelike-progression meaning each run builds toward something permanent. Boons granted by the gods of Olympus create synergistic build combinations, and reviewers highlight that every death advances the story rather than resetting progress. Players describe the gods feeling like real characters with distinct personalities, and report that replayability never runs dry across its massive content. The game holds a 98% positive rating from 139,938 Steam reviews, and is verified for Steam Deck play.
