If you haven’t played Vampire Survivor, you should: it’s Tom’s Game of the Year 2022, and for good reason.
“In this deceptively simple action game, you navigate 2D open world levels as your character automatically attacks using a variety of weapons that you acquire as you play,” he wrote.
“The more you play, the more upgrades you can make, and a successful run ends up having your character screw everything up just by being in space. A real badass. And it feels so good.”
