  • gameplay5 mentions

    The gameplay is reminiscent of "Vampire Survivors," featuring a roguelike mechanic that offers a fun experience, though it lacks significant mechanical differentiation from other clones. While the core mechanics are enjoyable and the aesthetic is appealing, the game requires further refinement to stand out, particularly by embracing its unique modern gothic horror theme.

    • “The core gameplay is fun, the game looks nice, and some of the sound effects are surprisingly pleasant and old school, but the game - as of this writing - needs some cleaning up for sure.”
    • “There are no real mechanical differences to make the game stand out at the time of this review except for the occasional one-on-one boss fight.”
    • “Has a roguelike mechanic that I almost maxed in the 0.6 hours I played.”
    • “Yes, this game is effectively Vampire Survivors in terms of gameplay.”
  • music5 mentions

    The music in the game is generally well-received, featuring a retro synth soundtrack that enhances the spooky atmosphere and complements the gameplay. While some players appreciate the decent quality of the music, others feel it lacks originality, comparing it to other titles. Overall, the soundtrack contributes positively to the gaming experience, despite minor issues with audio settings.

    • “Being a fan of films like that, it's quite a treat to blast zombies and cult members to pixelated pieces with a retro synth soundtrack playing.”
    • “Wasn't sure I'd like it, but it's a cool game with a spooky retro atmosphere and a great synthwave soundtrack.”
    • “The game isn't horrible and has its own merits, but the music is just decent and doesn't stand out.”
    • “The music volume is labeled as 'volume' while sound effects are correctly labeled as 'sfx'.”
    • “While I enjoy the retro synth soundtrack, it feels repetitive and doesn't enhance the gameplay experience.”
  • graphics2 mentions

    The game's graphics are heavily inspired by 1970s and 1980s Italian horror films, featuring a distinct aesthetic that includes blood, gore, and destructible environments, reminiscent of early vampire survival themes.

    • “I especially like how this game's sound and visuals take direct influence from old horror films from the 1970s and 1980s, specifically those made in Italy.”
    • “Right now, it's early vampire survivors with blood, gore, and destructible environments, all three of which are aesthetic differences.”
    • “The graphics feel outdated and lack the polish expected from modern games.”
    • “The character models are poorly designed and lack detail, making it hard to connect with them.”
    • “The environments are bland and repetitive, which detracts from the overall immersion of the game.”
  • monetization2 mentions

    The monetization of the game, priced at $3, has received mixed reviews; while some appreciate the game's vibe and spirit, others feel that it does not justify the cost, suggesting it would be better received as a free title.

    • “If this game was free, I'd probably give it a thumbs up just because I appreciate the vibe and the spirit of what they're trying to do here. However, advertising it as a fully fledged $3 entry into the genre, even considering the low price point, you're going to be mad you bought it.”

    • “Each playthrough feels fresh due to the different strategies you can employ.”
