If you're a fan of the stylish visuals and intense gameplay of Hades, but crave the strategic depth of a strategy RPG, then the newly-released Eclipsoul by Peraspera Games might just be your next obsession. Available now on Android, this idle RPG plunges you into a world inspired by European mythology, where the Eclipse Legion has devoured the light, and it's up to you to command the gods' forces to bring it back.

Eclipsoul's gameplay draws strong parallels to the beloved Heroes of Might & Magic series. At its core, the game revolves around auto-battles, but with a twist: you deploy five distinct heroes, each rooted in mythology, who lead customizable troops into battle against the forces of darkness. This blend of idle RPG mechanics with the strategic elements of HOMM makes Eclipsoul a fascinating evolution in the genre.

For those with busy schedules, the idle rewards system offers a convenient way to progress, making Eclipsoul an appealing choice for players looking to enjoy grand mythological storytelling without constant active play.
