Vampire Survivors, a new game that started trending this week, may have caught your eye. In theory, it’s as addicting as a mobile game despite its flaws, thanks to its Castlevania-inspired visuals.

Since its debut on December 17, 2021, several streamers have tried their hand at Vampire Survivors. In a retro-looking 2D game; the player controls a character and has to fight against a variety of enemies for 30 minutes.

You just need to move your character while the weapons and skills you take up are automatically activated. Castlevania-inspired visual style includes cops, monsters, and even satanic-religious mythology. As the game progresses and the player acquires legendary weapons and abilities, the adversaries grow in number and strength.
