Malignant Survivors

Malignant Survivors, developed and published by Eren Aydin, is an ambitious 3D action roguelike that invites players into a grim and challenging fantasy world filled with relentless enemies and an abundance of loot to collect. The game sets itself apart through its fast-paced combat and a deep itemization system, promising a dynamic experience for those who enjoy the thrill of constant progression and character customization.

these types of games fail when u get hit 5 feet away from an enemy an die instantly and then say to yourself "WHAT HIT ME"? this is the biggest problem with this game. also its reallllllllllllly bloated with ♥♥♥♥ that doesnt even do anything to you character......

Love this game style...

this is cringe how bad it is ...u cant pick loots cus you cast spells once a year and monsters keep summon all around it non stop , and no matter how much damage you have they just keep spawn more and more and prevent you from picking any good loot that drops , spell casters has enough health to survive 1 hit and sometimes not even 1 later is stage and u also get hit from mile away from a MELEE mob .. like wtf is that... nothing in this game make sense at all

I don't understand the negative reviews for this game. The price is like 3 dollars without discount, this isn't a game you play every day for a week. It's a game you play now and then for some easy fun, and it does the job very well!

This is a pretty fun, but janky, survivors-style game. I picked up for 55 cents I think. Honestly, it's a really great value for that. It's super fun to play on Steam Deck and is pretty solid for that price. I can't complain. Now, don't expect a Triple A game for that price, as for example they use a lot of the free Paragon assets for their items etc, but as a solo indie-dev game. I gotta give mad respect. This game f*cks for 55 cents. If you can get it real cheap. Give it a shot. It's pretty fun. Just remember it's a cheap ass indie game.
