10 seriously great survivors-like games
We gathered 'survivors-like' games (in the vein of Vampire Survivors), where you weave through swarms of enemies while powering up attacks that fire automatically. Runs are short and controls are simple, but the upgrades you pick at each level-up create a different build every run. If you've enjoyed the original, pick your next obsession here. · Updated 2026-10-20
2 · Roguelike shooter
20 Minutes Till Dawn
A survivors-like with a clean structure, true to its name, where you only need to survive 20 minutes, plus the hands-on feel of aiming and reloading yourself.
3 · Horde survival roguelite
Halls of Torment
It reimagines the survivors-like in a dark fantasy atmosphere reminiscent of '90s classic action RPGs, making the hunt for gear and traits especially rich.
4 · Roguelike shooter (free fan game)
HoloCure - Save the Fans!
A free fan game starring hololive VTubers, yet its polish and steady updates rival most paid games.
6 · Action roguelite
Soulstone Survivors
Flashy 3D spell effects filling the screen are a big thrill, and so is finding game-breaking synergies by combining skills and weapons.
7 · Action roguelite
Rogue: Genesia
Its campaign structure takes you across multiple worlds while facing hundreds or thousands of monsters, so every run has a clear goal.
8 · Survival bullet heaven
Temtem: Swarm
Collecting and evolving creatures from the monster-collecting game Temtem meets the survivors-like, so you get collecting and progression in one.
9 · Hack-and-slash roguelite
Death Must Die
You choose and combine powers granted by different gods, so there's a lot of hack-and-slash RPG-style depth to dig into with items and builds.
10 · First-person shooter roguelite
Vampire Hunters
It turns the survivors-like into a first-person shooter, with the over-the-top fun of wielding several guns at once to wipe out undead hordes.
