I don't know what the game type is called, but Vampire Survivor was the first one I remember. After that, a ton of copies came out. Only one I played is Vampire Survivor, Death Must Die, and I just downloaded the most recent viral one, MegaBonk or something.

But what are your favorite ones, what's the worst lazy ripoff one? Favorite items that might not be the best 'meta'

 

[DarkShadowXI]

I enjoyed this one quite a bit. It looks like a modern Diablo game with survivor-like mechanics.

The Norse stuff is pretty cool, too.

 

[Dzab]

Halls of Torment is pretty good, has that late 90s isometric pc game look to it too

 

[Avid Reading Horse]

I think they're called autoshooters, but I got bored of Vampire Survivors before I unlocked everything and that's the extent of my time with the genre.

 

[Durin]

Gotta add this one, like it more than Vampire Survivors:

 

[IAmRei]

I find that Holocure is the best because it's not too serious and cozy and it's free

I got bored in 2 weeks though

 

[DarkShadowXI]

Oh yes, 100%. I played this for like 6 hours straight when I first picked it up

 

[kpopSuperstar]

Gotta add this one, like it more than Vampire Survivors:

This and Halls of Torment are the two best ones.

 

[Holammer]

Others already mentioned it, but Halls of Torment is really good. Reminds me of classic Diablo 1/2, they 100% nail the late 90's 3D Studio look. They should do an actual Diablo clone IMO.



Tried this Early Access one awhile ago. Like HoT it's a little bit more active than VS. Awesome music, setting and graphics. A lot of artistry on display.
But it's thin on content atm, only 5-6 hours tops. There's a update around the corner.

 

[Durin]

This and Halls of Torment are the two best ones.

Never heard of Halls of Torment, will take a look at it.

Good to hear. I just picked it up on the Steam sale, but haven't played it yet.

 

[Come On Tars]

Death must Die was pretty sweet. I'm kinda of waiting till it's done

 

[Spukc]

None they all fucking suck

 

[D_N_G]

Vampire survivor's ost is quite good btw. The Castlevania DLC has 50+ arranged soundtracks from the series.

Official playlist (not all soundtracks are available here):

 

[Traxtech]

Army of ruin is great

 

[Ceadeus]

Soulstone Survivors!

That does look good. Didnt know VS inspired games have progressed to Diablo like visuals and levels.

 

[Spearheadz]

I very much have enjoyed Death Must Die (and Deep Rock Galactic Survivor).

 

[GateofD]

Death must Die was pretty sweet. I'm kinda of waiting till it's done

that's one thing that's annoying, most are in a forever state of beta where its just one level or two. (at least when I start them) and then once it actually updates or 'finishes' its far past after I moved on

 

[DarkShadowXI]

That does look good. Didnt know VS inspired games have progressed to Diablo like visuals and levels.

I wasn't expecting much and was pleasantly surprised with it! Worth a try.

I got bored in 2 weeks though

reminds me to install that on the Deck. I've seen videos of it and it looks pretty good.

 

[Rentahamster]

THis one's my fave

 

[Pasta la Vista]

Halls of Torment is pretty good, has that late 90s isometric pc game look to it too

This one was my favorite so far, love the art direction for it,

 

[IAmRei]

once You upgraded enough, it will like shoot em up or specifically bullet hell, quite fun while it lasted. I was a fool, play it everyday and got bored in 2 weeks : ))

 

[Lupin3]

Megabonk and Halls of Torment.

 

[KiteGr]

Gotta add this one, like it more than Vampire Survivors:

 

[GateofD]

didn't really like Megabonk.
Ended up trying Ball x Pit, and that one I'm liking. The building part as a play a roundgate is kind of lame though

 

[Wilhelm_85]

Halls of Torment is pretty good, has that late 90s isometric pc game look to it too

This one is fantastic. I liked it better than Vampire Survivor, to be honest, but it definitely lacks in content.

 

[Beechos]

I had alot of fun with brotato

 

[poppabk]

I had alot of fun with brotato

Yeah anyone know of any other 4 player local co-op games in this genre.
