Styx

Hades guide · The final underworld region acting as a gauntlet before the surface
← All areas in this guide

The Temple of Styx is the final underworld region, functioning as a hub with five branching tunnel paths that lead to mini-dungeons. You must explore these tunnels to find the Satyr Sack required to bribe Cerberus and gain access to the surface. Once past Cerberus, you exit to the surface for the final boss encounter against Hades.

Items

0/1

Enemies

Gigantic Vermin

Fast-moving pests that inflict poison and bite in close range.

Satyr Cultist

Ranged foes that spit venomous blowdarts which inflict poison.

Bother

Skittering urn-like enemies that dash and cast area-of-effect spells.

Snak-Stone

Stationary turrets that fire continuous rotating laser beams.

Crawlers

Tiny vermin that attack in large swarms with minimal individual health.

Hades

The final boss encountered on the surface; fights in two phases using spear strikes, casts, and lasers.

Shops and people

  • Charon: Offers a wide inventory of high-tier boons, Daedalus Anvils, Poms of Power, Centaur Hearts, and Darkness.
  • Pool of Purging: Allows you to sell unwanted boons in exchange for Obols.

Tips

  • Drink immediately from the Mandragora water cure wells in tunnel chambers to clear the lethal poison inflicted by Satyrs and Vermin.
  • Tunnel paths marked with skulls indicate mini-boss encounters, which are tougher but contain fewer individual waves.
  • The Satyr Sack is guaranteed to appear by the end of your fifth tunnel, but it can never spawn in the very first tunnel you attempt.
