Jupiter Hell
True Roguelike. Turn-based shooter. Permadeath. Tribute to the sci-fi classics of the Golden VHS era. Successor to DRL. Just you and your gun against hordes of horrors and monstrosities. Give them hell to the rhythm of heavy metal.
What players say
Steam review score and the most-helpful voices, which may include critical ones. Data as of 2026-05-20.

JG follows a straightforward structure for its main game mode. In early levels you try to defeat as many enemies as you can…”
