Rogue-lites are usually games with only a few elements of Rogue. Mostly what differentiates them is that you can often unlock things that persist between lives, unlike a true Roguelike where you start over 100% from scratch with each character/new game.

Pixel Dungeon is a Roguelike. Hades is a Rouge-lite.
