About the game

You face a 9-headed hydra. Your sword cuts 5 heads in each swipe (never less), which kills a 5-headed hydra, but a larger one will regrow 2 heads after each swipe. Your scythe cuts exactly 7, but 10 grow back if the hydra lives. Can you kill the hydra? Or better to explore to find more arms first?

    Hydra Slayer is one of those games that reminds you why games are such a wonderful medium for exploring ideas, challenges, and the endless possibilities of interactive entertainment. At first glance, it may seem like a simple traditional roguelike about walking around, finding weapons, and fighting monsters. But as you spend more time with it, you begin to understand that there is something much deeper happening…

    Game flat out crashes every single time I kill a hydra without fail, which is a bit of a problem in a game titled "Hydra Slayer".
