If you're a fan of the critically acclaimed game Hades and its stylish visuals and roguelike gameplay, then the newly released Eclipsoul from Peraspera Games might just catch your eye. Now available on Android, Eclipsoul blends the familiar strategy RPG genre with a Hades-inspired aesthetic, creating a unique gaming experience that's sure to appeal to fans of both genres.
Set in a world inspired by European mythology, Eclipsoul places you in command of the gods' forces as you strive to restore light to a world darkened by the malevolent Eclipse Legion. The game's core mechanic revolves around auto-battles, where you deploy five distinct heroes, each rooted in mythology, to lead customizable troops against the forces of darkness.
Eclipsoul draws significant inspiration from the Heroes of Might & Magic series, incorporating modern strategy gameplay conventions into the idle RPG format. This fusion makes for a compelling evolution in the genre, offering players a familiar yet fresh experience. The game stands out not just for its mythological themes and Hades-like art style, but for its engaging gameplay mechanics.
