Description
The Gods of Olympus have abandoned humanity, leaving you to perish without their benevolence. Take up arms against the Gods, climb Mount Olympus, and take their divine powers for yourself to ensure mankind’s survival! Apotheon is a fast and brutal 2D action game with a striking art style and heroic narrative based on Ancient Greek Mythology.
  • Brutal and bloody bronze-aged combat! Slay your enemies with swords, spears, arrows, and other ancient weapons of war.
  • Explore the massive open world of Mount Olympus! Battle mythical beings and search for divine treasure across the Forests of Artemis, the Palaces of Apollo, and other sanctuaries of the Gods.
  • Guide the rise of Nikandreos, humanity’s last hero. Interact with a colourful cast of fully voiced legendary characters throughout a rich single-player experience.
  • Challenge your friends to single combat! In one versus one local multiplayer, pit your skills against other would-be heroes of Greece.
  • Learn a little about Greek Mythology! Apotheon tries to stay true to its source material. Read an excerpt from the Iliad about Diomedes before you stick a Xiphos through his Aspis.

Ancient Greek at it's best

Art direction is the best on this game, the music aswell take you in the atmosphere of an ancient greek world where Mount olympus and gods coexist with humanity. The story altought not bad is very predictable and simple, it does his job enough to put you over the quest without complains. As for the gameplay, not the best, a little bit chaotic but once you get the touch it becomes less of a complain, wich is my only complain for this (long) game. Sometimes i just want to play a videogame for fun and engage with the world within, apotheon does it right.

Crashes on Linux constantly

I would love to write about the graphics, which are great. I would love to write about the game mechanics, which are really good. But, alas, I was only able to get through a very short piece of the game because on Linux it crashes like the shores of river Styx. According to the forum, the Linux port seems to be broken in version 1.3... Well. No use for great graphics or game mechanics then.

Aesthetically Divine

Oh, Apotheon, you stunning masterpiece! A visual feast fit for the gods, yet, alas, navigation is a puzzle that demands the patience of an ancient sage. The weapon system dances like a stubborn minotaur, testing our wits and perseverance. And those colors, mirrors of mischief, blend into the glorious chaos, leaving us squinting like mortals searching for truth. But fear not, gallant adventurers! Apotheon's maps, regal overlays guiding our noble hero's footsteps, are a celestial gift! A touch of tweaking to text boxes and weapons menus, and this masterpiece shall ascend even higher. Let colors sing, heroes from the horde! For now, all melds into one vibrant, whimsical spectacle! Marvelous Apotheon, a game I would have adored in the dawn of consoles' limited capacity, forsaken by the likes of The Battle of Olympus, an aesthetic catastrophe of its time and ours. Yet, thou shineth bright, beautiful as a Grecian urn. The maps, faithful compasses, lead us with celestial grace. Just a pinch of improvement to distinguish friends and foes, and this gem will surpass the heavens! Yet, my friend, in this grand labyrinth of life, I question if our paths align. A fantastic game indeed, but is it my current quest's calling? Uncertainty hangs in the balance. Shall we brave another adventure, or bid farewell? Only the fickle hand of destiny shall decide.
