While Supergiant's entire catalog is impressive, no game has quite captured audiences like Hades in 2020. Bastion, Transistor, and Pyre all bring something new and interesting to the table, but the Greek myth-themed roguelike is fast, fun, challenging, and breaks many unwelcoming conventions of the genre. Its gameplay is the most important piece of the puzzle, but when players return to the House of Hades it becomes a different beast, as interacting with wacky and lovable NPCs like Nyx, Hypnos, Cerberus, and Hades himself makes for a lot of the game's charm that Hades 2 needs to replicate.
