New Switch 2 Roguelike Has a Twist That Could Give Hades Real Competition

Roguelikes have a weird way of making failure entertaining, and Hades is probably one of the best examples of how well this approach works. Players can basically spend the entire run trying to defeat their enemies, fail miserably, but still start all over again and even be happy to do it because there is simply always another approach worth trying. It is a clever formula that encourages replayability aggressively, which is one of the reasons why Hades is such a recognizable name in the genre, after all. It seems like Tenjutsu is very aware of what made Hades so successful, and the game is trying to build upon this idea.
