Here is an overview of the game, via poncle:
About
In a dark world, a new adventure begins. Explore maps, level up powers, kill monsters. Find treasures.
From the somehow triple-BAFTA‑winning creators of Vampire Survivors, Vampire Crawlers: The Turbo Wildcard from Vampire Survivors turns the snowballing thrill of Vampire Survivors into a turbo turn‑based, card‑driven BLOBBER with roguelite elements. Build busted decks, explore familiar dungeons from a new perspective, and unleash world‑ending combos. Either take your time and be tactical, or play turns as fast as you humanly can: the outcome is always accurate!
Key Features
- Snowballing, Turn‑Based Carnage – Play cards in ascending mana order to land combos; each step multiplies the next card’s effect. Use Wilds to extend the stack and keep going to 10, 20, 30… Can you reach infinite?
- Pick Your Pace – Either take your time and be tactical, or play turns as fast as you humanly can: the outcome is always accurate!
- Deckbuilding – Accumulate experience and level up to gain new cards, headbutt chests for customization gems and power‑ups; chase weapon evolutions and summon survivors to trigger cascade of effects and break the game.
- Dungeon Crawling – Explore dungeons packed with something seldom seen in Vampire Survivors: functioning walls. And then all sorts of unique treasures and interactions. Find the shovel to dig into the next floor, that will most likely take place in the clouds!
Get ready to Master the Turboturn!
FAQs
- Is this some sort of sequel to Vampire Survivors?
- This is just a spin-off of Vampire Survivors, hopefully the first of a series of spin-offs! The idea is to take some of the accidental core pillars behind the development of Vampire Survivors and to apply them to existing genres. We’re talking about accessibility, immediacy, affordability, replayability, lightheartedness, and tons of flashy stuff.
- Will you update Vampire Crawlers post-launch like Vampire Survivors?
- Yes, we are already planning to keep supporting the game post-launch and we have a thousand ideas about what we could do! Vampire Crawlers is a whole game, with a beginning and an end, so we are going to wait and see what the players say and suggest before choosing what to do post-launch.
- When is it releasing?
- We’re aiming for early to mid 2026.
