Game Guide

Swipe to move! Avoid enemies and land attacks.

Demon Survival review image By training, you can also perform long-distance attacks. Attacks using skills are also activated automatically.

This game is a stage-clear type, and you clear the stage by achieving the objectives set for each stage, such as defeating a certain number of enemies, surviving a certain amount of time, defeating a boss, etc.

The basic operation is only movement. You can move freely 360° around the field by swiping.

Attacks are automatic. However, unlike "Vampire Survivor", you are not always attacking.

When an enemy enters the attack range, if the cooldown time for the attack has ended, an attack action will be activated. Move well so that your attack hits accurately.

Permanent strengthening with gold! You can also obtain it by paying.

Demon Survival review imageThe effect of training is only valid within that stage. However, you can also train permanently with gold.

The acquired abilities are only valid within that stage.

However, there is also a permanent training element that uses the gold earned in the stages.

Gold can be obtained by paying, but as far as I've played, the game balance is such that it can be played for free. Try playing it first, and if you feel that the difficulty is too high, consider paying.

The appeal of "Demon Survival" is its thrilling action and cyber atmosphere.

Review image of Demon Survival It looks like a retro game in still images, but when you play it, you'll be amazed by how cool it is.

There are quite a few indie games for PC that have the concept of enjoying severe instant death action with cyber visuals and background music.

For example, "Hotline Miami", "KATANA ZERO", "AKANE", etc. All of them are attractive because of the immersive feeling of the stimulation and thrill of light and sound.

This game is also for smartphones and not PCs, but the appeal is similar. Although it is not instant death, it has severe action and the cyber light and sound feel good! It's a game that is so addictive.

Take risks and get close! Thrilling battles

Demon Survival review imageThe length of this sword is the attack range. It's quite short, so there's a high risk of receiving damage.

While the main weapons in "Dada Survivor" and "20 Minutes Till Dawn" are guns, this game, like the original "Vampire Survivor," mainly uses close-range weapons.

However, unlike "Vampire Survivor," where attack judgments are always generated, attacks in this game only occur if the enemy is within the attack range. Moreover, this range is extremely small compared to "Vampire Survivor"! Serious close-range attacks.

For this reason, in order to hit the enemy with an attack, you need to take the risk of receiving damage. Since you need to be aware of avoidance and get close, it's extremely thrilling.

Pixel art x gradation x electronic music! The cyber feel is cool

Demon Survival review imageThe combination of this visual and music is cool. I would like to use headphones if possible. As the title "Demon Survival" suggests, this game has a fantasy worldview of defeating demons. However, the atmosphere is closer to cyberpunk.

It's cool that the pixelated characters, drawn mainly in black, roam the vivid gradations like neon signs! Digital music with a strong bass is playing there. If this isn't cyber, then what is cyber?

The immersive feeling of taking thrilling actions in this atmosphere feels like a digital drug.
