Basically a smaller scale Mass Effect clone but with Greek mythology. It's a hack 'n slash game where you meet other companions along the way and based on what Gods you favour, you unlock certain abilities.

Solid action-RPG that was underrated. Sadly, it just got delisted by Codemasters and EA on other stores - so, it would be nice to get GOG to find a way to preserve this underrated action-RPG hybrid.

I'm voting for this because EA delisted it from Steam. This is a good game that deserves to be preserved. This game, Assassin's Creed Odyssey, Titan Quest and Age of Mythology are all great examples of video games based on Greek mythology.
One of the only Greek mythology games that gets it right. The atmosphere, the music, the combat, the choices, the story.. It's a niche game, you love or hate it and I consider it one of the best games I've ever played. Makes the generic AC Odyssey look like trash even for a 2008 game.
One of the best action RPG games based in Greek Mythology setting. Past beyond most of games of its time. A true gem, deserve more attention and a resurrection. I appeared here while looking for this game to play again and GOG felt the only place where I could find it (legally).
I wishlisted this game on Steam in Oct 2024 because I always loved the greek themed action games of the 2000s era. In March 2025 I noticed the game was delisted and it never warned me cause it didn't go on sale. I wish I had the chance to play this game. It's like my Golden Fleece...
