Fun game with nice visuals, nothing groundbreaking but a decent take on the action rougelike.

Mediocre. There's some things it does well such as the various the character + god skills. But overall the character balance is awful, the scaling is bad, the maps are very small, aren't well designed or laid out, and they are chock full of annoying areas with terrible collision aspects that get lost in the visual clutter. Speaking of clutter, the Rune Puzzle is the dumbest thing they've "added". They just posted that v1.0 is launching soon with a price jump to $14.99 and I cannot recommend the game without fixing all the glaring issues first, especially if they want to consider that the full release.

After 2 hours play this game, i feel this game's not terrible, it has potential, but im not excited in the system.
- Art design -> Beautiful!
- Animations -> Better than many games in same Roguelike genre!
But the big problem is when the countdown timer ends if you don't summon the boss you will be considered a loser.
-> If so why doesn't the system automatically summon when the time is about to run out?
The design of the skill tree feels unapproachable and sketchy to me personally.
It is a bit disappointing compared to other games in the Rouguelike genre because the cost is higher but perhaps it is just used to invest more in the game's graphics.
Hope the game gets more updates, also have some expectations in the future, I'm willing to pay extra for any DLC if the system is improved more.

Coming from games like Soul Stone Survivors, Deep Rock Galactic Survivors, and Risk of Rain 2, this game feels right at home. I especially enjoy its unique twist on the genre of an epic nordic theme. It is a solid beginning, and I am excited to see how this game evolves over time. Give it a chance, you will enjoy it!

I got this game on a whim and wound up really liking it. The art style is good, mechanics are interesting and considering I sunk roughly 10 hours into it the first day I played it, would recommend.

Game has potential but as of current version (0.4) it's a clear no from me, it's just not fun.
And I'm saying this ater spending hundreds of hours in similar games such as Hall of Torment, Rogue Genesia, Soulstone Survivors, Conquest Dark, Vampire Survivor, Brotato, Deeprock Survivor, Yet Another Zombie Survivors, etc.
If you're looking for a VS-like game to play next, any of the games I've named is worth it (YATS is mid though).
The Good:
- Art design
- Animations
The Meh:
- Having objectives popping up during a stage is an interesting feature, it gives something to work toward to. I like the fact that I can pick what vent will be next. However those objectives are mandatory and should be made optional instead.
Some of them are pretty boring as well: "collect 30 mushrooms" and each mushrooms requires standing on top of it for 1sec... Bro, it's a bullet hell / heaven, locking players movements to a tiny area, even for a short amount of time, feels like shit. Just let the mushrooms be picked up magnet style like gold / xp crystals. Another example of an event was "survive 1min with a debuff that reduces your movement speed", which feels really, really bad.
The Bad:
- It's boring. The skills feel un-impactful, the talents upgrades feel un-impactful, leveling up feels un-impactful, the loots feel un-impactful, the buffs feel un-impactful...
I see lots of skills being cast by my character on my screen but everything is taking ages to die, and I was only in easy/normal. There's zero feeling of power in the difficulties where we should be oneshotting mobs with just auto-attacks for FUN.
Like I said, HoH has potential, so wait & see.

I got Hordes of Hel thinking it’d be a little roguelite throwaway—y’know, something to crack open on the Steamdeck while I decompose on the porcelain throne. A couple of runs, a couple of wipes, call it a day.
I was wrong. This game is NOT poop-tier. It is poop-enhanced.
What started as a casual “lemme see what this is” has turned into “babe I’ll be out in a bit, I’m… uh… busy.” I have completely restructured my digestive rhythm to maximize time spent playing this chaotic, crunchy, violently satisfying gem of a game.
You like roguelites? Good. You like fast runs that make you say “ok one more” fifty-seven times? Good. You want a game that feels like Diablo but strips out the spreadsheet crap and leaves you with just the good slashy-slashy dopamine? HEL yes.
The controls are tight, the upgrades feel meaningful, and the combat absolutely slaps. You want a game where every run feels like a punk rock Viking fever dream and somehow never gets old? This is it. It's like the devs put actual effort into it or something, which is suspicious, but appreciated.
Plus they keep updating it. Like… more than they should? It's getting new features, polish, love—hell, even the bugs feel charming. I’ve played AAA games with less soul than this.
If you’re into:
Tight combat and buttery movement
Dying stupidly and immediately doing it again
Supporting devs who give a damn
Sitting way too long and realizing your legs are asleep
Roguelites that don’t waste your damn time
Then Hordes of Hel isn’t just worth it—it’s a lifestyle choice.
This isn’t bathroom gaming. This is throne-based domination.
10/10 would ruin my lower back again.
