______________ About the Game ______________
Vampire Survivors is a roguelike role-playing video game developed and published by Luca Galante, also known as poncle. It was released in early access on December 17, 2021. The player controls an automatically attacking character while fighting against continuous waves of monsters, with the goal being to survive the onslaught for as long as possible and unlock additional characters, weapons, and relics for subsequent sessions. In spite of the game's name and key art, a deliberate point of irony is that none of the variety of monsters encountered are vampires.
The player controls one of several characters with different starting weapons and bonuses on a looping stage. The weapons attack automatically, and the player's goal is to defeat constant waves of various monsters that appear. Defeating monsters and exploring the stage allows the player to collect experience gems, which are used to level up, roast chicken, which restores the player's health, and other helpful items. Each level increase provides the player the choice of several weapons and passive power-ups; once the player has collected six weapons and six power-ups and upgraded them all fully, any further levels they gain offer only gold coins or roast chicken. Another way to upgrade weapons and power-ups is to open chests, which are dropped by particularly powerful monsters and may contain one, three, or five random items. Fully leveled weapons can also be merged or upgraded into an ultimate form if the right conditions are met.
Sessions of Vampire Survivors have a soft time limit of 30 minutes. At the 30-minute mark, the stage is cleared of all enemies and a final enemy named Death will spawn. Not only is Death tremendously powerful and difficult to kill, but one additional Death will appear every consecutive minute thereafter to ensure the player's eventual demise. A session that lasts 30 minutes or longer is considered a successful completion. In between sessions, gold can be spent to unlock new characters and power-ups.
