Chamber guide, lots of different contributors, Brasstronaut and Ellemenop being two of the bigger contributors, and the website made by myself. It appears that the Olympus update added some rooms into the Fields of Mourning that have not yet been added into the guide: [https://zacharywebsites.wixstudio.io/hades2cg/](https://zacharywebsites.wixstudio.io/hades2cg/)

Speedcord review channel, people regularly request reviews of their runs to improve their times. There are some amazing reviews by a bunch of talented people there and you can pick up all kinds of information: [https://discord.com/channels/940392249844465694/1217940897656733840](https://discord.com/channels/940392249844465694/1217940897656733840)

Save File Information

You can do runs on your own save file, but if you want a maxed save, they are available [here](https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1g_mRoiCXNkHpWzyD_xQI35q7QcmoitDF?usp=sharing) (Google Drive link) or in the Resources tab.

# Save File Information

Save files are stored in varying places depending on the platform.

## Windows:

```
C:\Users\<Your Username>\Saved Games\Hades II
```

## Steam Deck:

```
/home/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/1145350/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/Saved Games/Hades II/
```

## MacOS:

```
/Users/<Your Username>/Library/Application Support/Supergiant Games/Hades II
```

# Loading A Save

1. Choose which profile you want to load the save into (profiles are numbered 1-4 based on the “slot” on the title screen)
2. **Optional:** If the profile is empty, copy the *Profile1.ctrls* to *ProfileX.ctrls*, X is the new slot. Do the same with *Profile1.sjson* to *ProfileX.sjon*. If your main file is not the first slot, use the file you normally use instead. This should prevent you from having to rebind controls and set up display settings (but you can also just do this in game)
3. Download the save you want to use, move it to the correct location, and rename it to **ProfileX.sav** (where X is again the slot you've selected)

Credit: Much of this was adapted from the [Hades equivalent](https://www.speedrun.com/hades/guides/uj036) written by **Museus**. Other stuff from there might still work, but I have not tested it. If you have, ping me on the discord!
