hades is a rogue-like game with a deeply rich story that explores the traditional mythos of Hades and Persephone under a different lens. the story is told through the eyes of Zagreus, Hades' son, who has recently concerned himself with escaping the Underworld and finding his biological mother. there are a number of themes in this game that might be difficult to work through. although this isn't an exhaustive list, here are some common themes that transpire throughout the game. please leave a comment here to opt-out or send me a PM and i will completely avoid in partiality, or totality, the following:
• child abuse, both mental and physical • the Persephone mythos or other Greek mythos that Zagreus would be privy to • divorce • blood, gore, violence (there's a lot of gratuitous blood in Hades) • themes of death and rebirth, doomed fate • skulls
please comment here or PM me if you'd like, for any reason, to not be tagged by Zagreus, or if you'd like to avoid Hades spoilers. all comments to this thread are screened.
