Tartarus (Subsequent runs)

Hades II guide · Returning to the Underworld for subsequent runs
← All areas in this guide

Tartarus serves as the final region of the Underworld route where Melinoë must fight through remaining Wardens to reach the lowest depths. Instead of standard sequential chambers, the region is structured around finding and navigating specific pathways toward the House of Hades. The ultimate goal in this area is confronting Chronos, the Titan of Time, to attempt to end his reign.

Tips
