Hades is a god-like rogue-like dungeon crawler that combines the best aspects of Supergiant’s critically acclaimed titles, including the fast-paced action of Bastion, the rich atmosphere and depth of Transistor, and the character-driven storytelling of Pyre.
BATTLE OUT OF HELL
As the immortal Prince of the Underworld, you’ll wield the powers and mythic weapons of Olympus to break free from the clutches of the god of the dead himself, while growing stronger and unraveling more of the story with each unique escape attempt.
UNLEASH THE FURY OF OLYMPUS
The Olympians have your back! Meet Zeus, Athena, Poseidon, and many more, and choose from their dozens of powerful Boons that enhance your abilities. There are thousands of viable character builds to discover as you go.
BEFRIEND GODS, GHOSTS, AND MONSTERS
A fully-voiced cast of colorful, larger-than-life characters is waiting to meet you! Grow your relationships with them, and experience thousands of unique story events as you learn about what’s really at stake for this big, dysfunctional family.
BUILT FOR REPLAYABILITY
New surprises await each time you delve into the ever-shifting Underworld, whose guardian bosses will remember you. Use the powerful Mirror of Night to grow permanently stronger, and give yourself a leg up the next time you run away from home.
NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE
Permanent upgrades mean you don’t have to be a god yourself to experience the exciting combat and gripping story. Though, if you happen to be one, crank up the challenge and get ready for some white-knuckle action that will put your well-practiced skills to the test.
SIGNATURE SUPERGIANT STYLE
The rich, atmospheric presentation and unique melding of gameplay and narrative that’s been core to Supergiant’s games is here in full force: spectacular hand-painted environments and a blood-pumping original score bring the Underworld to life.

You should really start saving darkness for another death defience. You can get 2 more.
Also don't ignore the darkness bonus for the weapons, especially where you are at now progress wise. The darkness bonus is really useful in the long run.
You don't really need to roll a dice for the starting weapon because that bonus is random too. Plus it goes well with how you gain health collecting darkness.
1:04:35 arghhhhhh it literally said right there that it would also replenish 1 use of death defiance 😭
I'm surprised Zag didn't mention to Orpheus that he did find his muse and she's in Asphodel. The story of Orpheus and Eurydice is one of the main classics of poetry and opera.
Haven't actually played the game, so don't know if it would be mentioned, just enjoying gameplay and lore, pretty easy to follow even in comparison to other games
Don’t forget about your aid ability!! It doesn’t have to be completely full to use , basically free damage in normal chambers.
Always love it when Zag enters the final chamber in Tartarus and makes his prediction/comment on who he's about to meet haha. The Hypnos coin purse keepsake is pretty nice to pick up in the room in-between regions in case the shop in there has something really good you can't afford otherwise.
Instead of the dice it might be better to use whichever weapon that gives bonus Darkness (it's random).
57:56 Missed fishing spot. After taking your reward you can hear a particular bell sound that indicates a fishing spot has spawned.
Definitely enjoying these streams! I also think you might enjoy the story a bit more if you looked up Demeter, and, as previously suggested, Orpheus & Eurydice. It's all non-spoiler & general knowledge. Demeter has a special relationship to Zagreus… 🙂
Breathe that cold air while it lasts my underworld dude 🥶⛄
Did you know my finishing run was under 25 mins with those gloves in the dodge aspect 😄👊
Really enjoying the series so far. Those fishing points are important, so listen for that bell!
Stubborn Defiance does in fact mean you can die in every single room, but Death Defiance is better imo because you’re most likely to die to a boss where you’re in danger of dying a second (or third) time, plus you can earn death defiances back if you lose them.
I dont normally give advice like this but you should really stay away from Stubborn Defiance. It isnt as good as it sounds because you shouldnt really die in normal chambers anyway at a certain point then you will only have one (weaker) revive for boss battles instead of multiple ones. You are doing really well so far anyway and you die very rarely now, so save up sone Death Defiance for the bosses, I think itll work wonders for your run
You're making really great progress! Always fun to see the combos you can get from mixing different boons.
Nice first try against dear old dad. And now you’ve met Demeter, whose cast(especially when supplemented by secondary boons from her) allows you to control a version of the laser crystals you hate, lol.
Yeah, stackable damage boons are really good on the fists’ attack. With the Talos aspect’s magnetic cutter, it’s so fun to drag them in, quickly stack the curses and dash away.
Also I would recommend giving the various duo boons a look in the codex. That way you can see if there is particular build you are interested in trying out 🙂
