Worth buying over the many others in the Genre ?

What sets this apart ? I need an addictive game to play. Cheers

yeah it's pretty cool and challenging the grind is there and it's a more finished and polished game than many other because they can reuse all the assets from drg coop game.

Most survivor games are not that polished they are jsut a bunch of assetts thrown around with some random bs flying around.

Yea it seemed fairly polished from some vids I've been watching. It just has to have that one more run feels.

Quite early access with lots of balancing to be done. Although this is the hardest game of this type I've played and IMO it does strictly fall into your usual 'survivors'-genre type. VERY hard at higher levels but also very rewarding when you get things done.

depends on what you like. atm, it doesnt feel like you progress and get stronger. other games are better in my opinion.

Halls of Torment, Soulstone Survivor, Death Must Die and Rogue Genesia all blow this game out of the water for a similar price. DRGS needs a lot more time to cook, but has a solid foundation and a cool gimmick in the mining.

Nah, buy something else. This is trash right now. Maybe it'll get better. Maybe it won't. Devs are rather unresponsive.

[Crunchy[Daz]]

Its pretty good but it needs more content.

They are plenty responsive, maybe pay attention in the right places.

The thing that can make one game like this stand out I think is when they get the pacing spawn rate and hit boxes just right the magic happens. Getting that perfect balance that gives the player a feeling of being in complete control must be extremely hard, so a lot of dev's miss this magic spot.
These dav's seem to have found that sweet spot, or are very, very close.
As VS clones goes this is one of the best, or shall be, it's extremely addictive.

This game is not bad but most of the time it's a run-away-and-gather-loot-simulator for people who like dwarves. I mean, yeah, it still qualifies as an autoshooter but plays very differently from the original Vampire Survivors.

If you don't mind playing actual objectives while killing stuff is secondary, go for it. If you want to get all the milestones unlocked, you can sink quite a few hours into it.

However, if you just want to mow down hordes of enemies, go with HoloCure. :D

The game is inferior to most of independent small studio released games of the genre, hopefully it is supported and updated to show what a bigger established developer can bring to the table. The extremely poor weapon/class balance is exposed at high hazard levels but the game is pretty fun overall. The people claiming it is some shining jewel of the genre are delusional DRG players blindly supporting it while circlejerking chanting Rock and Stone which worries me about the developers actually improving the state of the game. It is pretty easy to get your moneys worth out of the game but it is not as quality as many others in the genre.

If you've already played other games of the genre and want more, then go for it. If you're looking for a starter game in the genre, then better wait a few more months for balance and content updates

[FoxyLoxy]

Yep, get it.

The terrain system provides a lot of tactical choices. And the game is just plain fun.

I agree, and I'd add Scarlet Tower, Vampire Survivors and even Fatal Zone to that list as well. All are cheaper and much more complete. You actually feel your power grow in those game unlike in this one.

I do agree it's got a solid base and it's the most "professional" looking game in the genre so far as well. Nice graphics and audio. It beats the rest in presentation but the gameplay is behind the rest. Just my opinion.

Great fun especially if you played DRG.
Others I have played aren't as hard but they are fun as well.
