What a horrible night to be the bullet hell.

Vampire Survivors is a simple, fun time. It's got a large assortment of characters with different weapons and you can combine certain status trinkets with weapons to create more powerful weapons. And, well that's kind of it actually. What you see is what you get. I love the Castlevania-esque aesthetic, character on the box art that is 1:1 Bayonettas's whole pose, and a naming scheme that I often confuse with Vampire Savior (Darkstalkers).

I've needed a casual game that I can just pop in-between classes for quite some time. It's also great to have a game I don't have to actively think about while playing. Honestly needed a bit of a break from all the story driven games I've played this year. I don't find the game extremely addictive or anything, it's just a really nice casual play when I have the time. It's very cheap and free on mobile if you want to trial the game before purchasing like I did. It's not for everyone, but it's worth giving a go if you have some time to spare.
