The 2nd gift of the Epic Games 2024 calendar
Vampire Survivors
Vampire Survivors is a roguelike game developed and published by Poncle Limited that you have certainly heard of. Indeed, this fairly minimalist title is capable of making you addictive very quickly. Remember, a few weeks ago we presented the title Brotato. Vampire Survivors is the same type of game.
The objective is to survive successive waves of vampires, while gradually trying to improve your skills and unlock new weapons. It is even possible to combine some of them with objects to obtain incredible effects.
We still point out that the waves are made up of more and more enemies. The advantage is that your character attacks without you having to press a button. All you have to do is concentrate on its movements, while looking for the right strategy to follow to survive until the next wave.
As you immerse yourself in this game, you will feel like you are going back a few years. This retro side is linked to the pixel-art graphics which will probably remind you of certain arcade games.
