You have to play the game on Nintendo Switch charts

The list of top sellers on the Nintendo Switch is, in general, dominated by AAA releases and first-party Nintendo games, which will cover most of 2020 Animal Crossing: New Horizons. This side of the PC is also the best vehicle for indie games, and sometimes a little game up or down. Right now, when Super Mario 3D All Stars Ranked # 1 on the main chart, but the indie title is at the bottom and the “download only” chart is at the top. It’s Hades, You have to go to play.

Hades The latest from the critically acclaimed Supergiant Games Tower, Transistor And Pier. It’s a roguelike, meaning for beginners you will try to do a long series of semi – random levels at once, absorbing power ups along the way. If you die, you start over, but you manage some currencies that you use to buy permanent updates. You play the role of Zagros, the son of Hades, when you are trying to escape from the underworld for reasons I will not go here. And it was the most addictive experience I’ve played in years.

I’m still planning to write a full review about Hades in the coming days, this time, I’ll be playing a little more Hades In fact do it. For now, however, it continues to reveal new ways of surprising me. The most interesting part of the game is that despite the repetitive nature of its gameplay, the way it is played with a continuous narrative slowly reveals itself to its little world every time you react back to yourself at the beginning. Like all Supergiant games it is beautiful in terms of sound and art design. It is cruel in many ways, but surprisingly sweet, even exposing itself for dozens of hours.

But that’s the top stuff, the stuff that drives you after a few hours. All this is the Foundation. I’m back Hades Time and time again to see if I can make it, to see what I can do with different power ‌ups, to see what people will say if I see them again. But most of all, I only do it to do it. To feel my sword smack on the enemy and watch the slam against the wall, line up the extensive combo and watch the status effects domino, I leap across the screen and narrowly miss the enemy attack, Zeus Lighting rewards me with a well timed strike. It is a perfect, mechanical perfection, a return to a relatively simple isometric action Tower I have been wanting from Supergiant for years.

And though Hades It’s hard at its base level, and even harder with the many trouble modifiers you can throw at in unforgivable hell mode or after your first successful run. If that worries you, note that the Supergiant is not dogmatically committed to that particular level of hardship Some Other popular games. There is also a “God mode”, which minimizes the damage done by enemies and constantly gives you more encouragement every time you are dead, effectively adjusting the difficulty level until you find a point where you can continue. The rest of the game-story, unlockable, capabilities, etc. remain the same and you can toggle the mode on and off whenever you want.

So go play, you will not regret. More to come later.
