About Vampire Survivors

Vampire Survivors invented a genre almost by accident. You move — that's your only input — while your weapons fire automatically at the horde closing in from every direction. Every level-up offers a choice of new weapons or passive upgrades, and by minute twenty a good build is clearing the entire screen without you doing anything but positioning.

Poncle's original is a paid game; this page runs a browser take on the same formula. The appeal is identical: a run lasts fifteen to thirty minutes, the power curve is absurd, and the decision-making is entirely in which upgrades you take and when.

  1. Move to avoid the enemies; your weapons fire on their own.
  2. Collect the gems dropped by kills to level up.
  3. On each level-up, pick a new weapon or a passive upgrade.
  4. Combine the right weapon with the right passive to evolve it into a much stronger version.
  5. Survive as long as you can as the waves escalate.

Vampire Survivors tips

  • Don't take one of everything. A few weapons levelled to maximum beat six weak ones.
  • Passives that boost area and cooldown help every weapon; take them early.
  • Keep circling. Standing still surrounds you; running in a wide arc keeps the horde behind you.
  • Pick up the chests — they're where evolutions happen.

Vampire Survivors — questions

Is this the real Vampire Survivors?

It's a browser game in the same style. Poncle's original Vampire Survivors is a paid release on Steam, consoles and mobile.

How do you evolve weapons?

Level a weapon to its maximum and hold the matching passive item, then open a chest — the game combines them into a much stronger evolved version. Which passive pairs with which weapon is most of the game's depth.

Does it work on a Chromebook?

Yes — it's a 2D game that runs in the browser with nothing to install, though the screen gets busy late in a run.
