Halls of Torment is more than simply Vampire Survivors wearing Diablo’s clothes. It’s a clever and engrossing Survive ‘em Up that uses RPG trappings to add a ton of versatility and rewarding complexity to what would still be a fun game without it. There’s a pile of quirky character classes and a massive number of ways to build them during each run, just a big pile of content and not a shred of it feels like padding.

Halls of Torment è davvero una figata fotonica ed è giusto indicarlo così, di pancia, proprio per accentuare quante cose riesca a fare in modo ottimo. Giocato sin dal giorno uno della sua pubblicazione in Accesso Anticipato, la creatura di Chasing Carrots, team composto da cinque persone, è prontissimo per ritagliarsi una fetta del mercato importante e di creare, di conseguenza, un nuovo mito del genere roguelike. A renderlo incredibile è la totale personalizzazione anche nel game design stesso, come se fosse un videogioco nel videogioco che può essere affrontato come meglio si preferisce.

Halls of Torment offers a solid and addictive experience for fans of bullet hell-style roguelikes, combining accessible gameplay with a nostalgic look inspired by 1990s RPGs. Although it brings some innovations, the game remains faithful to the mechanics that made the genre successful, offering a wide variety of heroes, missions, and areas to explore. Despite some limitations in the interface and lack of more detailed explanations of certain mechanics, useful for players less familiar with the genre, the title has great potential to grow through future updates, providing hours of fun and challenges. It is an excellent option both for those who are discovering this type of game and for more experienced players looking for something new.
