Escape From Hades
A downloadable game
Escape From Hades is a roleplaying game inspired by Hades from Supergiant games which uses a card-based twist on the LUMEN system kit. This game follows the escape attempt of Condemned trying to ascend through the underworld in opposition of its Master.
Condemned players are the could’ve-beens of Greek myth, favored for greatness by the Gods but condemned to obscurity by Fate; a warrior who trained under Achilles but died of plague before seeing battle, or an oracle who learned the secrets of Delphi just as prophecy was deemed forbidden.
The Master player holds Hades’ authority, and is divinely charged with deploying the hordes of the underworld's greatest soldiers, criminals, heretics, beasts and monsters to stymie the Condemned's escape from their assigned place in the underworld.
Features:
- Intuitive and snappy resolution system based on poker rules.
- Tons of divine power-ups and weapon customizations for character advancement.
- Quickly configurable levels full of unique enemies and traps.
- Slowly unfolding political intrigue.
- Transient death.
- And more!
Download the free demo version of the game for an example level, pre-generated characters, and a small sample of character progression options.
Purchase the additional Guide to Hades for more technical advice on running levels as the Master, and enough pre-made content to double the amount included with the core rules.
