Perfection
Very high value; a masterpiece that keeps on giving
Five years after this game released and immediately following its sequel’s release, I am deciding to write a review on this well-known, well-loved modern classic. I recently revisited this game to get the last few achievements I needed for this game and it was every bit as fun as I remember. Even with all the achievements completed, I’m constantly discovering things to do in the game or goals to strive towards. I’ve played nearly 100 hours and there’s still more fully voiced dialogue that I’m hearing for the first time after every single run. The amount of effort and love that went into this game is easy to see. Hades is filled with beautiful artistic direction, an amazingly paced narrative, awesome music, and great gameplay. It all adds up to one of the best gaming experiences I’ve ever had. It’s especially a treat for anyone who enjoys Greek mythology. If you somehow do not own this absolute masterpiece yet, do yourself a favor and get it. It is worth so much more than what you’ll spend on it.
