Jupiter Hell is a turn-based tactics roguelike developed by ChaosForge, set in a sci-fi universe inspired by golden VHS era classics. The game features procedural level generation, meta-progression through skills, and deep build variety alongside mechanics like cover-based positioning, grid-based movement, and weapon-swapping. Players describe the combat as intense and atmospheric, noting that turns feel like real-time action when engaged, and reviewers highlight high replayability with meaningful choices. The difficulty is brutal and sessions are long, with no multiplayer component. Currently priced at $24.99, the game holds a 92 percent positive rating from over 1500 Steam reviews and runs in playable mode on Steam Deck.

About Jupiter Hell: True Roguelike. Turn-based shooter. Permadeath. Tribute to the sci-fi classics of the Golden VHS era. Successor to DRL. Just you and your gun against hordes of horrors and monstrosities. Give them hell to the rhythm of heavy metal.
