Lone Survivors

This is a fantastic indie game and a nice alternative to games like Vampire Survivors or HoloCure. I really enjoy the different classes you can pick from. Each class has a distinctly different feel and playstyle. On top of the classes, the progression in the game is very nice too. You earn coins from your runs and then unlock useful perks and items in the progression tree. For such an affordable price, this game is a nice little hidden gem and should provide you with hours of enjoyment and replayability! Would recommend if you like games in this genre!

In the short term this game scratches the itch that many game ads exploit (i.e. number and enemy kill count go brrr) while in the long term it offers a surprising amount of depth and variation with unlockable classes and permanent upgrades. Balanced well enough that the playerbase is currently divided on the best class and strategies.

[h1]9/10, absolutely worth the $5 regular price. Support this dev so we can see what they make next. [/h1] At first glance, this doesn't appear to do anything particularly ground breaking, just another Survivor-like in an endless ocean of Survivor-likes. The skill tree is just a tweak on meta progression, the classes are just stand ins for how most of these games use characters, etc. As you start finding more NPCs, however, more small new features add up. You get a blacksmith with a minigame you can play on each character to boost their default weapon, a librarian that adds new challenges like a boss rush, fishing, etc. Again, nothing super groundbreaking, but when you put them all together it feels like a unique game. All those little features make it clear this game was made with love. This is a Survivor-like made by a longtime fan building their dream game. Let's support this dev and see what's next. (I only gave 9/10 instead of 10/10 because the screen gets too busy at times and becomes hard to track, but that's also part of the challenge in this genre, so won't ding too hard for that.)

Jump into massive hordes, unlock devastating abilities, and clear brutal objectives in this fantasy survivor style game. It’s you against a whole butt ton of enemies. [h1][b]Pros:[/b][/h1] [list] [*]Fast, fun gameplay [*]Awesome, plunky art style [*]Great audio [*]Loads of upgrade paths [*]Tons of characters to play as [/list] [h1][b]Cons:[/b][/h1] [list] [*]Endgame screen effects can get messy and distracting when there is a lot happening [/list] [h1]This sits next to niche favorites like Vampire Survivors, Everything is Crab, and Hordes of Fate : A Hand of Fate Adventure. It holds its own thanks to insane upgrade branches and a big cast of characters. The art is cute and a little plunky. Fans of the genre can pick it up with no trouble, though getting into the meta and really powering up takes time. Super fun overall. I got this copy for free after chatting with the developer on Reddit during testing, and I even snagged this early screenshot.

You will not go wrong giving it a shot.[/i][/b] [h1][b]SPOILER BELOW:[/b] [spoiler]thank you for fixing the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ worm. that thing should have been a miniboss on its own.[/spoiler][/h1]

Really solid bullet heaven. Good metaprogression with meaningful upgrades. Campaign mode is a nice touch. All the weapons are really well-implemented & the classes feel different. No issues w/ difficulty scaling. Plays reasonably smoothly at the highest mob densities. Fans of the genre shouldn't miss this one.

A very OK survivors-like. Not overly original or amazing, but for the price, I can't complain.
