Hadean Tactics

Gameplay overview

Guide a hero through the underworld on a route of battles, events, shops, and bosses, aiming to defeat the Six Wings of Hell. Each run offers a procedurally generated map and choices about where to go next.

Recruit souls to form a party and arrange them on a grid battlefield. Units fight automatically, while combat pauses at timed intervals for you to draw and play cards that attack, defend, reposition, summon, or otherwise influence the fight.

Build your strategy as you go by adding cards, upgrading units, and finding relics. Heroes have distinct decks and playstyles, and a custom hero and deck mode lets you choose starting traits and shape which cards appear during a run.

Review themes in more detail

Players who enjoy the game often praise its blend of deckbuilding and automatic unit battles, especially the way cards, heroes, and recruited allies can combine into varied builds. Custom hero creation and the chance to assemble powerful synergies are recurring highlights. Some also appreciate the timed pauses as a chance to react during fights, while others find the balance, difficulty, or run-to-run variety less satisfying.
