I’ve been sucked intoVampire Survivorslike a stream of blood pouring into a fanged mouth.

One moment which entirely changes the course of the game: power evolution.

I hope you read that in a dramatic voice.

I had no idea such a thing could even happen.

The same chest also separately evolved my wand into having a never-ending, rapid-fire attack.

Or so I thought.

Sneaky, sneaky Vampire Survivors.

This is its lull.

So in control was I, I was able to put my controller down and still not be harmed.

‘Is that all it’s got?’

I wondered, triumphant but also a little let down.

But I’d glimpsed real power!

I’d sniffed the end.

So I rushed to tell people how well I’d done.

I have stumbled on more and their reveal delighted me.

Now I know - or think I know - what happens at the end.

And that’s what Vampire Survivors is really all about, isn’t it?

And the secret behind it all?

Dramatic voice…

Power evolution.
