Slyders is a roguelite survival shooter that’s essentially Vampire Survivors in first person, with huge waves of demons, powerful bosses and badass companions.
The core gameplay in Slyders is very much like Vampire Survivors – you blast waves of demons, collect loot and unlock powerful perks. The aim of each area is to survive 15 minutes. You start with a melee attack and a gun, but it’s not long until you start collecting temporary power-ups and unlocking some cool perks.
When levelling up you can choose from passive perks, stat increases and active perks. The passive perks seem to be the best option overall, and there are some pretty cool ones – such as summoning a giant war elephant to permanently fight by your side.
It’s a fun game that does a good job of switching the roguelite survival shooter gameplay to first person, and it makes things much more intense. If you’re looking for a Vampire Survivors style game that allows you to get up close and personal with your enemies, you might want to slide into Slyders.
