Hades is arguably Supergiant's best game to date, superbly melding the beautiful graphics and isometric-action gameplay of their earlier titles Bastion and Transistor with the procedural level generation and item-based character improvement of other Roguelites such as Binding of Isaac, Crypt of the Necrodancer, and Dead Cells. The Mirror of Night and post-game Pact of Punishment together form one of the most impressive difficulty-tweaking systems I've seen, allowing players to incrementally adjust nearly every aspect of gameplay to keep things challenging and supremely replayable as your skill and Zagreus' arsenal improve. Finally (and as expected), Darren Korb's OST is a fantastic contribution to the game's atmosphere without being distracting or wearing out its welcome during a marathon game session. This game is 100% a must-have if you have enjoyed Supergiant's other games or Roguelites in general.
