In gameplay terms, this is a scrolling platformer with a character development system and freedom to explore the world in the style of "metroidvania". Climbing Olympus to Zeus, the hero will invade the forest of Artemis, the palaces of Apollo and challenge other gods, meet legendary characters and fight a lot - with swords, spears, arrows and other ancient weapons. In what order to visit the habitats of the Olympians, the player can decide for himself.
The Western press was pleased with the latest work of Alientrap: the average score of the PS4 version of Apotheon on the review aggregator Metacritic is 89/100. “The atmosphere created by the visual style and the music makes Apotheon one of the most charming and stylish games of recent times,†noted the journalist Destructoid (9.5 / 10). According to him, Apotheon constantly motivates players to use new tactics and weapons in battles, so that it remains exciting and interesting until the very end. "Apotheon is not only a dedication to the art and culture of Ancient Greece, but also a damn addicting game that has already entered the list of my favorite projects in 2015," - summed up his review of the Game Informer employee (9/10).

The game came out so quietly that no one even created a theme. Well ...
In my humble opinion this game is one of the best in its genre and a very pleasant surprise this year. She copes with almost everything: atmosphere, style, combat system, etc.
Is it worth playing? - Definitely.
In addition to the campaign itself, there is a very cool split-screen arena (it's a pity that only 2), a kind of mini fighting game
The game is a masterpiece. She never stops throwing something new.
PS It would be cool if they then did it in the Egyptian style))). Although, most likely this is a piece goods ((
And I alone did not like the combat system? : upset:
Apparently yes. Everything in it works smoothly and as it should. For a project like this, such a combat system is brilliant.

"Piece" it is primarily due to the unknown of this product. Few people know about the game, because there was very, very little PR. Although visually such a game is not enough to be promoted. And the developers are practically no-names. And whatever one may say, but the game is good. A hopeless situevina is obtained with the continuation of this game. It is unlikely that there will be anything like that.
