How it feels

A frantic dash to hunt an ancient god, blending investigative clue-finding with intense bullet-hell combat against a looming deadline.

What players say

Players find it a cheap, fun take on the Vampire Survivors formula where Cthulhu's location is random each run. They praise the art and strategic weapon variety, but note the content is very limited and some suffer from stuttering and map glitches.
