\"\"<\/a>For someone who has never played Vampire Survivor, I sure have reviewed lots of clones of it!\u00a0 I\u2019ve reviewed ones with cats, frogs, and even wizards.\u00a0 And now here\u2019s one with submarines!\u00a0 The creatures of the ocean have become monstrous and violent due to toxic waste, and it\u2019s up to you to pilot your cute little submarine to shoot them and save the day.\u00a0 Submarine Survivor is available on all current consoles and PC, but reviewed on PS4 here.<\/p>\n

Before you start, you view a dock where you can do several things.\u00a0 You can buy gradual upgrades for your submarine so it can take more damage, dish out more hurt, and go faster, plus much more.\u00a0 You can also get new submarines with different powers and view how to play and toggle options.\u00a0 When you are ready, start the mission and view a map.\u00a0 Each square on the map is a mission where you must last for a certain amount of time.\u00a0 The missions will have different obstacles for you to avoid, like mines, toxic waters, storms, etc.<\/p>\n

During these missions, you view the action in 2-D sidescrolling perspective.\u00a0 Your weapons will fire automatically, and all you have to do is dodge the fish.\u00a0 Defeated enemies leave behind little gold triangles you can pick up.\u00a0 Get enough to level up, and you can choose a temporary upgrade for your sub.\u00a0 These could be new weapons or a stat boost.\u00a0 When you last for the allotted amount of time, you can move onto the next map mission.\u00a0 But if you lose all your energy, you must start the entire map missions over again.\u00a0 Which will happen and it makes the game progression slog, which is ultimately why I lost interest.\u00a0 Also the text is way too small.\u00a0 These Vampire Survivor clones haven\u2019t convinced me to play the original yet!<\/p>\n

Kid Factor:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Submarine Survivor is rated E-10 with an ESRB descriptor of Fantasy Violence.\u00a0 You shoot cartoony fish that dissipate when defeated and that\u2019s it.\u00a0 Reading skill is a must, and younger gamers may get frustrated and bored with this one.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
