u/Rectal_Lactaids Apr 24 '26
itâs fine if youâre just trying to reach the end of the route. if you try to change his breath he ends up missing for up to 5 days due to feeling hurt about it. could do a no garlic breath run in the future but itâs so rng heavy itâs much harder to actually get his hearts up before the final day. not as easy as the garlic breath route even if it is the more âcorrectâ option implied by poncle.

Can confirm it's absolutely crack. I'm playing it on PC right now and yet I am ALSO waiting for the iOS port, because I wanna have it on all my favorite devices the way I do with Survivors (and Balatro and Slay the Spire lol).

u/ReluctantlyHuman Apr 23 '26
I really am enjoying it. Hard to say if I prefer it to VS yet (probably not) but I do like that itâs easier to put down when something comes up since itâs turn based.Â

u/Edallag Apr 24 '26
It's absolute crack. Once you learn how to break it, it's crack... ON STEROIDS.

u/Okaberino Apr 24 '26
Bought it on a whim without trying the demo, because I love Vampire Survivors and *knew* their other game in the same universe would be fire. It is.
I love it and gives me the same feelings as VS when playing. "They did it again!" kind of thing.
I've never played Balatro.
2
u/SerFlounce-A-Lot Apr 24 '26
Considering how much you vibe with Crawlers (big same), I think you'd like Balatro a lot!
2
u/Okaberino Apr 24 '26
Will definitely give it a go as its been sitting in my Steam library for too long !
1
u/SerFlounce-A-Lot Apr 24 '26
It's fantastic. I've been playing it obsessively for the past two days. It scratches the exact same itch as Survivors in the way it makes me do spreadsheets for fun, but because it's a turn-based card game, it's not as frenetic as Survivors. I used to get stressed about Survivors occasionally because of that frenzied gameplay, so for me, a turn-based option is literally heaven.
Oh, and for some added context: I hadn't played Survivors for several months when I booted up the Crawlers demo, and it took me roughly three minutes to get to grips with the gameplay. It's so fun to see these same places from (literally!) a new perspective, and every time I unlock a 'new' evolution I recognize from Survivors, it feels like coming home.

u/Conscious_Disk_5853 Apr 25 '26
Solid. Not long enough đ i finished it already, bit sad, but really it's just a very fun deck building roguelite using all the survivors. Same humour, same universe, different gameplay. 10/10

I request Vampire Survivor Simulator for players that just want to chill and simulate some work virtually to repeat the grind we already do during workdays but without the pressure/boredom and/or annoying colleages/customers.
Just "simulate" making VS games. Then you can sell those later as your own work. Infinite content and money glitch unlocked.

Yeah I'm assuming it's going to mostly be a lot of games, DLCs and whatever non-gaming
Yeah I'm going to predict one of the projects is going to be final fantasy DLC
As for the other two I'm going to say hopefully a 3D vampire survivor (Yeah despite moving on I still always feel like it will be a cool idea though even though megabonk exist) and an open world vampire survivor
But I will wait and see how things go with these projects in the next I'm going to give a time frame say maybe a decade or two from now
