Zagreus, the Underworld, and the rogue-like that won the BAFTA and a Hugo
Hades was the first video game ever to win the Hugo Award, beating out traditional novel-length science fiction nominees in 2021. Supergiant Games' acclaimed roguelike follows Zagreus, immortal son of Hades, as he repeatedly attempts to escape the Underworld with the help of Olympian gods, weaponry forged by Daedalus, and a memorable cast of mythological figures.
Each round presents 10 randomized questions from a pool of 50, with four multiple-choice options and instant feedback after every answer. Your final score comes with a performance tier and shareable results.
You'll explore Hades' four regions from Tartarus to the Temple of Styx, the Olympian Boon system, the six Infernal Arms and their Aspects, key characters like Megaera, Achilles, Nyx, and Dusa, the legendary voice cast led by Logan Cunningham and Darren Korb, the game's awards history, and the ongoing Hades II early access sequel starring Zagreus's sister Melinoë.
Hades was developed by Supergiant Games, the indie studio behind Bastion, Transistor, and Pyre. It launched into early access on December 6, 2018, and released in full on September 17, 2020.
Zagreus is the protagonist of Hades — the immortal Prince of the Underworld and son of Hades. He attempts to escape his father's realm in search of his mother, Persephone.
Boons are powers granted by Olympian gods like Zeus, Aphrodite, and Athena. They modify Zagreus's attacks and abilities and can combine into powerful Duo Boons when paired correctly.
