Crafty Survivors has given me several hours of fun so far. However, it isn't outstanding. I actually forgot I owned this game for 13 whole months before I started playing it again. I like it, but I can only recommend it if you have a chance to get it on sale. The biggest problems are that it is forgettable and you often feel painted into a corner when it comes to picking weapons and making combos; if you aren't doing the best, you aren't playing right.

Fun at first, grindy in the middle, fun at the end again. From the "Survivors" name you might expect something like Vampire Survivors: get abilities until the screen is full of bullets and the enemies are dying en masse. After you see the dodge mechanics and bosses you might expect something more like Death Must Die. Instead, it seems more like it's intended to be a more skill-based action roguelike (something like Death Must Die is slowly moving towards). Good character selection eventually, but most characters unlocked early are hard to use and it takes until almost the very end to unlock some of the most fun ones (Keyra / Newsom). The game works against itself by having some characters drop special resources (Rodrigo for fish, Mausolea for candy) that you need to progress, and requiring them in sufficient amounts that you practically have to run these characters for most of the game. On the positive side, Rodrigo is incredibly strong (high damage with crab trap, easy to get lots of hearts with the net and the basic attack) and Mausolea is my favourite character (I run a summonless build with an Elixired Fungal Vortex). You can get fish from the Fisherman's Hut and candy from the Graveyard, but you need to play the characters in the relevant zones first before you can unlock the levels for the areas required (for the Hut, the Graveyard does not have this issue outside the Haunted Grounds). I played most of the game on Malignous with Cursed Bait (which I only turned off for some of the end-game character-specific boss fights). The levels are long enough with the Bait that I dread to think what it must have been like going through before it. I swapped down to Normal to halve the number of enemies (and their health) after the first three zones, which made progress slightly faster. Even with all the difficulty modifiers I never had much of a problem passing the levels with Rodrigo, or some of the other characters after I unlocked their Forge and Tailor upgrades. The first Tailor upgrade to double the invincibility time on dodge is a game-changer that means you can do things like dodge into a crowd of enemies, fire a shot, then escape out the other side to churn through them faster. The Forge and Tailor upgrades also work against playing multiple characters, as you invest points into each character individually. Some are easier to upgrade than others: Rodrigo needs his fish, Mausolea needs her candy, the other characters need resources you can buy in the shop. After you unlock the Farm, you can grow vegetables and sell them to have as much gold as you'll need. The Bank is a terrible way to make gold comparatively. Most upgrades are very weak and progress feels very slow. Food-wise, the foods that give attack and skill damage over time, and Stone Soup that gives block chance over time seem stand-outs. Block chance is really good and it's difficult to get much of it, and anything that makes you better over time ends up giving a pretty decent boost. For statues, the only stand-out is the one that lets normal enemies drop chests, which gives you loads of levels. I was glad for the Laboratory offering non-character-specific skills, some of which seemed better than most character-specific skills. Fungal Vortex especially can one-shot a boss: I'm not sure specifically how, but I think if you can pull enough clouds, especially black clouds, the tornados can end up doing 40k damage each (and it charges all the way on auto unless you dodge, which is appreciated). The crab claw does a lot of damage but is hard to aim. The mud circle, sand circle and Hoggert roar were all appreciated as decently damaging character-centred AoE attacks, and all the Spectral weapons are quite damaging (and the sword offers sustain) but tricky to aim. You can also pull in an Elixir just for the passive and banish the attacks, as you have a lot of free banishes. Specific complaints I have: rerolls, banishes and reserves appear to have no key assigned, so you have to use the mouse for these, which is a bit awkward. The late-game Dungeons and Overgrown Lizards challenge sends the adventurers in the order mage, cleric, archer, thief, warrior. The warrior is the easiest by far, and the mage is the hardest and most annoying to fight, so I would have rather these were swapped to give you a chance to level up against an easier opponent. The mage teleports often, making it hard to do damage, has a large undodgable grid attack, and has an ice attack which 1) hits you with an ice block, which 2) fires off tornados after it hits and 3) has a damaging circle around it. With dodge invincibility boosted you can dodge the initial attack and just run out the circle before the invincibility fades; without the boost I don't know how you're supposed to deal with this. As it's a late-game challenge maybe it's just balanced around you having it. With Cursed Bait, the caverns summon masses of enemies right at the start, and on some levels this makes them lag tremendously -- e.g. the bears. It also makes the levels much harder, but this is also fun.

Ooookay, the first couple hours of this were kinda meh, became cooler unlocking first unlockable character...and only progressively getting more and more *AWESOME* . Every new building, new feature within the building, oh surprise there's secret paths that can find whole new features. Every new unlock just makes me grin. The variety in how each character plays really adds a nice amount of change, difficulty can vary in a great way. I really cannot glaze this game enough to express how happy it makes me. Great progression, great gameplay, beautiful art, great variety, cute story-esque bits. Adore <3

one of the best survivor roguelikes on steam. the character roster is incredibly unique with fun builds that create varied play styles. the controls and freedom to customize your build during each run is very well done on controller. its a little grindy but at least for a survivor roguelike it has a purpose with a storyline told through text. if you want to sink a ton of time into a roguelike with great art and game design this is it.

TL;DR Crafty Survivors is in my opinion one of the best games that came out of the "bullet heaven" hype, it offers a lot of challenge and various progression systems that keep you engaged, every character plays in a genuinely unique way. If you're looking to get a lot of bang for your buck and find other "bullet heavens" too easy, this one may be for you. Controls Crafty Survivors allows a spectrum from full autopilot to full manual control within the battles, which allows you to adjust to your preferences or even change it on the fly depending on your build. Some characters definitely work better on full manual piloting, among those Axel specifically is a little finicky to use as the charged manual attacks will automatically release on level up regardless of charge status, mildly annoying when you are trying to do precise strikes. I definitely prefer playing this with a controller. There is a minor display issue (as of time of posting) where the game will show me PlayStation button layouts before switching the symbols back to the gamepad layout. Seems to happen when I alt-tab or at the start of a new run. This doesn't affect gameplay but it has been a thing for as long as I remember playing. Gameplay During a run, you defeat a certain amount of enemies, then finish the level by defeating a boss. Level Ups are unique to each individual character, and each character has at least 2-3 discrete builds you can spec into. While there is not too much variety in the builds, each character plays so different that you have a lot more variety than you'd expect. Between the runs, you use accumulated resources to improve your stats and unlock new features. The scaling is small early on but becomes much more significant the further you progress. The big milestone upgrades like Max HP Up and the Skill Tree Unlocks feel very rewarding to get into, a merchant allows you trading money for resources at a balanced exchange rate. The progression systems share the same resources, so you either have to make choices or grind quite a bit to max it out. Some people love it, some hate it. Art and Music I like the pixel art, the environmental themes, the character variety, the music is pleasant and doesn't get annoying even after long sessions. I have nothing negative to say but also not a lot more than that. I like the little bits of lore with the mail and newspapers, it's very minimal but adds some personality to everything, as well as hints for secrets you can unlock.
