Ratings and Reviews
Elegant and deep tactical battles
Hoplite has never left my phone since it was released, it's a game I keep revisiting and discovering more about it. It looks like a simple arena battle in which you play the titular hoplite against ever-growing hordes of demons. The mechanics are straightforward - stab, lunge, leap, bash, and throw - but they are slowly layered on as you make upgrade choices and customise your abilities. My favourite is a combination of quick bash, shielding bash and agility, which lets me dance around demons, killing them with impunity, while they always seem to be two steps behind me. It's the closest any game has got to capturing the feeling of the over-the-top sequences from 300. Highly recommended!
Must buy
Endless fun. Have been playing this for weeks. Multiple challenging and interesting achievements and fresh and interesting rouge like mechanics make this game a 100% recommendation
