Hell is Us

You won't find any hand holding here. No map, no waypoint, no quest log. Only a checklist of things you started and things you finished. You need to read notes you pick to find the solutions and secrets but the game sort them clearly which are useful or only lore. Souls-lite game with a lot of puzzle a self healing mechanic with a well timed activation that favor offense. Very good atmosphere with a well fitted soundtrack. I only have two negative things to say. Enemies variety is low, there will be stronger versions that have different attacks but otherwise you fight the same enemies the whole game. If you aim for the achievements there is a lot of missables because your actions can kill many of the NPCs. Most are obvious, make sure to explore well and don't advance the main story too fast but there are a couple that you could clearly miss, like opening a door before meeting an NPCs or giving an item before finishing other NPCs quests. At least there is a spoiler free guide online for that.

Surprisingly solid game. Definitely worth it for the price. It doesn't hold your hand, which makes it all the more satisfying when you solve a puzzle and discover more of the story.

Amazing game, but disappointed that the end game pillar spawning bug was never fixed. I hope the upcoming update addresses this issue.

I thought I'd take a chance on a new experience and ended up finding one of my favorite games of the year! The combat of Hell is Us is fun, but could use some more enemy variety. What we're mostly here for is the puzzles and exploration. The game hits a sweet spot with its puzzles where I didn't get stuck any individual puzzle, but I still felt super smart whenever I solved one. The atmosphere is fantastic if depressing. Our character is solving mysteries and fighting monsters while everyone around him is busy fight a brutal religious civil war that complicates his life every step of the way. I can't stop myself from recommending this game to anyone who is even remotely interested in it.

Świat tej gry jest niewiarygodnie złożony i przemyślany. Odkrywanie historii Hadei jest naprawdę satysfakcjonujące,

If you do not like using a controller do not buy this game! Typical console port, I should know better by now

I have tried souls-like before, though few. I could never come to grips with the timing, combat, puzzles, etc. This is the third I have tried and now I am in love. This game is phenomenal and I cannot begin to express how much fun I had playing it. The story is entrancing, dark, and not without moments of humor. The sounds are magnificent: distorted growls, cries, and screams assault the senses. Then there are the visuals; extraordinary! The way the walkers move is abhorrent and sensual all at once. The controls are smooth throughout. Combat is a lot of fun and incredibly satisfying when parrying or dodging. I love the characters, the lore, and the environments you get to explore. I found myself often frustrated with the target prioritization; sometimes a quick switch would leave me targeting the very farthest enemy rather than the one immediately starting to attack. The only other down side was the "element" system which did not seem to make a difference in play. I acquired mounds of buffs/debuffs for Rage, Terror, Grief, and ecstasy, but I never seemed to need them. Overall this is a truly magnificent game and I would highly recommend it!

immersive Welt, guter Soundtrack - schoen dystopisch. Keine Questmarker, man muss mitdenken, selbst Notizen machen, keine interaktive Karte.
