18. The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing II. 25 best hack'n'slash hames of all time (2023)

Table of Contents

And here's another young hack'n'slash series that sought its fortune in a market dominated by Path of Exile, fighting in the shadow of the popularity of GGG's work with productions such as Diablo III or Torchlight. As with the first installment, the game in question is distinguished from the competition primarily by its atmosphere. Instead of classic fantasy, we have a mixture of the world of darkness and steampunk - werewolves and vampires on the one hand, and firearms and machines on the other - which is permeated by a touch of skillfully woven humor with numerous pop culture references.

The game is distinguished by gameplay mechanics, in which, apart from the standard extermination of hordes of foes, collecting loot, and spending points on powerful and effective skills, we come across solutions straight from the tower defense genre and a garrison management system (our protagonist is the leader of the Borgovian resistance). Therefore - if only someone isn't unlucky enough to collide with technical problems, which have troubled many people trying to play in "The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing" - they can count on dozens of hours of decent entertainment.
