Rate top gamesHell is Us kept me hooked for nearly 20 hours in the unforgiving land of Hadea. Its Dark Souls–inspired level design forces you to observe every shadow, while investigations driven by dialogue — sometimes unlocked by a single casual conversation — make exploration deeply rewarding. The atmosphere of civil war is heavy and unsettling, and the Hollow Walkers are genuinely terrifying just by their presence.
Parry-focused combat delivers satisfying clutch moments, and solving its tougher puzzles brings real “eureka” highs. Some riddles can completely block progress, and combat variety does dip in certain areas, but the experience flows smoothly overall and rewards patience and attention. Think of it as a more narrative-driven Elden Ring — more linear, but just as addictive for thoughtful explorers.
At 39.99 € on sale (59.99 € base), it’s an easy recommendation on PS5, Xbox, or PC for players who value immersion and discovery.
