Vampire Survivors ran so Holocure could sprint.
This game's got a lot going on, a massive roster of characters that all have their unique set of weapons and skills that all correspond with the respective vTuber's personality, meaning each character approaches the game slightly differently. For example Mumei likes having lots of small enemies on screen to both trigger her Civilization buff and to kill them to activate Bloodlust. Sana, meanwhile, who I mostly played as focuses on having big objects orbit around her to make a barrier, and if you're ever in danger you can use your Super to become BEEG and escape. There are also many unique enemies, from the Gold/Silver YAGOO to the midbosses that add an extra challenge as you figure out how to tackle them.
There are also changes to the core system from Vampire Survivors, most notably a reduction from 30 minutes to 20 minutes, killing a lot of Vampire's downtime and making for a better paced game. The other is options that use the mouse to aim, which are most character's signature weapons. There is one that I'm not a super huge fan of, which is the in-game gacha unlock system where you spend the coins from playing to hope you get all the characters from the group you want and, if you got a duplicate, that character is enhanced. That randomness makes it tricky if I wanted to try and get all the girls (I got all but 1) or enhance my main.
There's one more feature, Holo House, where you partake in minigames to cook buffs that can help you in the main mode and get you money. It's alright for what it is, but is a nice break from the action if you so choose to use it.
If you liked Vampire Survivors you'll love Holocure, and if you didn't like that game, maybe this one has something that fixes the issues of Vampire Survivors. But even if you don't know much about vTubers, there are good times here. Best of all, Holocure comes at the low low price of absolutely free!
