Forgot about this game until a recent update put it back in my feed, and I'm glad it did. It's really a unique entry in the survivorslikes genre, combining a bunch of mechanics in new and different ways, and others that are just new and different. It's really well done, and if you like the genre, this is one you should check out. My second favorite mining survivorslike, second only to Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor, and that one's probably my GOAT. 4.5/5

It's decent. Would love to see more updates, but it takes ages to get updates sadly.

Swarm Grinder is a new take on the Vampire Survivors formula. Nice concept but way too grindy, even with "grinder" in its name. The game is tiny, has just 3 maps, only has 3 playable characters and a total of 14 skills with variations. Feels like nothing in comparison to massive games like "Vampire Survivors" or the FREE "Holocure"... Heck, even "20 Minutes Till Dawn", "Scarlet Tower" and "Bio Prototype" are chunkier and offer more. I did not like the game at first and only played it while watching something else. After grinding through the first challenges to unlock item slots and perks, the game finally ramped up. There are very few builds and most of them are already meta, not much experimenting here. To be honest, nothing special. Not bad, but nothing noteworthy... Only for fans of the genre who want to mix it up a little. Better go play HOLOCURE, it is free, has lots of characters with unique playstyles, tons of progression as well as dozens of mini-games. The devs should have put more effort into this project, it could have been something, not just a glorified abandoned demo..

Lots of fun but really lacks a variety of weapons and unlockable skill branches. There needs to be more weapons of certain types and feels like a grind to unlock the ones that are eventually available. I wish the levels, weapons and upgrades had more of an aesthetic change because it is a really nice art style.

My Review Great game for people who love achievement hunting . Very straight forward game-play, could do better with more content but for the price it is worth. It goes on sale very often
