If you're a fan of the critically acclaimed game Hades and its stylish visual flair and hardcore roguelike gameplay, you'll be thrilled to discover Eclipsoul, a newly-released idle RPG that brings a similar aesthetic to the strategy RPG genre. Now available on Android from Peraspera Games, Eclipsoul immerses you in a world inspired by European mythology, where an evil force known as the Eclipse Legion has devoured the light. It's up to you to command the forces of the gods and restore light to the world.
Eclipsoul's gameplay draws significant inspiration from the classic Heroes of Might & Magic series. While the core mechanic revolves around auto-battling, you'll have the opportunity to deploy five distinct heroes, each rooted in mythology, who lead customizable troops into battle against the forces of darkness. This blend of strategy and idle RPG elements marks an exciting evolution in the genre.
