What players say
Beautiful art and very good representing Greek art mythology but the gameplay is just pure garbage ...it takes few tries just to go down into areas and do different tasks ..there are similar games that aren't like this ...is just something i can't recomand...2D games are meant to be fun and very enjoyable but this game doesn't feel so..but if you have more patience ..this game can be enjoyed more i guess.

the concept and visuals of this game are absolutely amazing, too bad it crashes so often i can't enjoy them
I was originally struck by Apotheon's art style, which emulates Ancient Greek black-figure pottery painting. It might look like a Metroidvania, but actually plays more akin to a side-scrolling twin stick shooter, with physics simulation. Ranged weapons and thrown projectiles will arc semi-realistically, while hits from heavy weapons and explosions can send your enemies (or you) flying across the screen. Weapon decay...
