What Makes Okhlos: Sigma Stand Out
Squeeze into your toga and slide on your sandals to rally the angry mobs of Okhlos and bring down the oppressive gods of mythological Greece! Your beloved people will not longer stand for the abuse from their deities and take up arms against them and taking down anything and everything in their path. Topple the beastly minotaur, bring down sacred temples, and confront the almighty Olympians themselves while recruiting and balancing your unruly mob with warriors, peasants, slaves and even livestock in their quest for freedom from Mount Olympus! It’s total anarchy in the birthplace of democracy!
The people are angry and have united behind the noble philosophers to do their bidding to take down the soldiers, mythical beasts and temples under the control of the twelve vile gods.
Carefully recruit your followers from warriors, peasants, slaves and beasts of burden and unlock special units or swap units for one of 100 legendary heroes to upgrade the mob and increase their savagery. Wield the power of Heracles, Leonidas, Pandora, and Socrates to turn your mischievous gang into a formidable army!
Every campaign against the gods is different with changes to heroes, monsters, and bosses – and even the mob itself – each time you and your followers set out for battle. Traverse eight procedurally generated Greek cities and never fight through the same world twice!
Make your way through all manner of beasts, warriors, and demi-gods to arrive at the feet of the maleficent Olympians and unleash the power of the people in epic boss battles set against ancient ruins before they were ancient!
This Strategy game offers engaging gameplay and regular updates for mobile players.

They fixed the control issues. Give it a shot.
So glad to see the update for controls. We were excited to have the chance to play this and was to bummed to find out it didnt work. But now, it has been updated and order has been restored! Thank you Devolver; youre one of the best.
We honestly was look forward to this game being that we played on pc and this was major let down. The controls is probably the worst thing about this game. It would be nice if there was actual game pad controller support.
Honestly this is a really fun game! We just would hope that they would update it and fix 2 glaring problems. One we get crashes after and before some boss fights on our iPhone XR. And also when you press the right stick on touch controls it doesnt start in the middle it goes up, which makes it hard to defend and move the attack pole. Honestly Im not sure if its worth it unless they fix the problems. If youre an Avid fan of unique rogue likes like we are youll at least get some enjoyment out of it if you can over look the couple bugs and weird controls. Please devolved update this game! We would love to love it.
This need lots of improvement like controls and there are lots of ammonias that cost our games Like the controller bug where it would stay stuck in one place another is we couldnt block and some are that the bosses or mobs would leave the map and we couldnt kill them.
We would really like it if we could have an option for drag on the right side. The joystick seems a little awkward to operate.
But can u make like mobs attack easy its hard to u attack flag.
Well, this is extremely disappointing, especially coming from Devolver. Okhlos: Sigma is a rogue-lite Overlord/Pikmin style RTS/Action game that sees you controlling a philosopher that just witnessed a massive foot (presumably attached to one of the Olympic Gods) come crashing down and splatter your hapless followers in front of your eyes. From there, you hit the mean streets of Greece, building an ever growing mob (by simply bumping into people you see roaming the streets) that is set on destroying everything, from buildings to enemies, to street signs etc. And eventually the gods themselves. Along the way, youll bump elbows with a staggering roster of mythical heroes which provide stat boosts to your mob/provide additional attack power/some other bonus, youll purchase items and upgrades from vendors, all on your quest to destroy the Gods once and for all. If you die along the way, thats it. Game over, start over at square one. Sadly, the biggest enemy youll face this entire game is the UI. Idk who did QA testing prior to release, but they failed miserably. You control yourself, and the mob, by two joysticks: the left hand side controls your philosopher, while he right side controls your mob. The problem is, the joysticks feel TERRIBLE. Movement is floaty and sluggish with the mob, and almost too sensitive for the philosopher. To add insult to injury, you have a host of consumables you can use during you travels…. All of which lay directly under your left thumb…. Which means you have a smaller area that you can actually use to move your philosopher. Additionally, the joysticks both move to the left IMMEDIATELY up touching the screen, sending your philosopher/mob rocketing to the left well before youve actually input a direction. Furthermore, it seems the game registers multiple screen taps when only one has occurred, Ive lost bits and pieces of story, information on units etc. Simply because they game is registering multiple taps when only one has been made. Ive reached out to the dev and have yet to hear a response. Its such a shame because this seems like a truly amazing title with loads of content, but without the UI being changed, we would pass on this title without question. You cannot move or alter the controls, the UI layout, or sensitivity of EITHER stick. We hope the devs implement a patch sooner rather than later. Until then, this will be collecting dust on our iPhone.
Havent even been able to play, the game crashes every time.
How can you launch a game at this point in time without support for the Ipad Pro 12.9.
Mob controls are super trash please make it easier to control mob flag please and it would be perfect game.
