HoloCure was a very addicting game for me to play lately. As a Hololive fan, I got the most fun out of this game as there were so many references throughout this entire game, whether it was just through the characters, the enemies themselves, the power ups, even the music and levels are references themselves.

As a game, it is a roguelike survival-esque game where you run around and slain enemies in order to level up and get stronger. The more time you stay alive, the more stronger and challenging the enemies become. The game offers many power ups that can boost armour, stats, health recovery, or even give you new weapons to boot in order to survive. Despite this fan-game being one to one with Vampire Survivors, anyone who isn't a vtuber or Hololive fan will still get the most enjoyment out of this game.

Unique to this game are characters who have special attributes like passive skills and even specials that can turn the tide of the round. My favourite characters I enjoyed playing were Hakos Baelz, Gawr Gura, Kureiji Ollie, Vestia Zeta, and Calliope Mori, as they brought the most fun and chaos through out my matches. Another thing that Vampire Survivors doesn't have is the Holo House, a mode that lets you hire fans of their oshis and bring in cash for your upgrades, but also allows you to customise your home, grow crops to feed your fans and to also cook buffs for the next round, and to fish in order that you can either feed to your fans, cook into meals, or trade them to Bloop for money. Good luck finding the shiny fish as it took me days to complete that achievement...

HoloCure is one of the best Steam games I have played for months and I recommend it to everyone. Plus it's free on top of that and it's getting updates that adds more characters in the mix. Now we just wait for update 0.7 to drop.
