If you're a fan of the critically acclaimed game Hades and have a soft spot for strategy RPGs, then the newly-released Eclipsoul from Peraspera Games is a must-try. Available now on Android, this idle RPG brings the stylish visual flair and hardcore roguelike elements of Hades into a familiar strategy RPG setting, inspired by European mythology.
In Eclipsoul, you'll find yourself plunged into a world where an evil force known as the Eclipse Legion has devoured the light. As a commander of the gods' forces, your mission is to restore light to the world. The gameplay mechanics echo the classic Heroes of Might & Magic series, where you deploy five distinct heroes, each rooted in mythology, leading customizable troops into strategic auto battles against the forces of darkness.

This combination feels like a natural evolution, offering a fresh take on the genre while staying true to its roots. The game is packed with content, featuring a dense PvE campaign and dedicated PvP modes, ensuring there's always something to do. Plus, for those with busy schedules, the idle rewards system allows you to progress even when you're not actively playing.
