A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Hades
I recently picked it up for my switch and I'm really excited to try it out. I've heard a lot of great things about it
It's a great game to kill time, each play through is random so doesn't feel repetitive. Great soundtracks. I'm playing this on my laptop through a ps5 controller honestly this game is best to be played on a switch or steamdeck type device. Anyway happy gaming.
I'm pretty hyped for the sequel.
Wow there is a sequel? Great!
Highly recommend; it's on my list. It's a low-barrier roguelike to get into. Overall, the genre has some friction points, but this game is really smart about it. There is a story! It is advanced every time you die. You slowly get more stats each time also. However, If the game determines you are dying 'a lot', it will allow you to decrease the difficulty so you won't abandon the game. The fun is in combining Greek god powers; you can 'git gud' if you want a challenge, but it's not necessary to 'have fun.'
