A trailer always means business when it opens with thunder-chanting and epic orchestral drumming. Gregorian Monks could be trying to sell us a new brand of paper-towels, for all we know. As long as it sounds like an invasion march, we're in.

Apotheon, the 2D action role-playing game, has earned all of that dramatic score. As players traverse the world of Greek mythology, you will battle both the armies of men and gods on your way to claiming your own seat in the pantheon of myth.

Developed by Alientrap, creators of alien world adventure Capsized, Apotheon will include a multi-player mode in addition to the single player campaign. Watch the trailer, and see if you can remember who Poseidon's dad was. Tell us your answer on Twitter.
