Vampire Crawlers: PS5 deck-builder under $9

Vampire Crawlers: The Turbo Wildcard launched on the PlayStation Store for PS5 and is listed for under $9. The title has a 4.85 out of 5 average from over 3,000 user reviews on the platform. The game was co-developed by Poncle and Nosebleed Interactive and published by Poncle.

The title departs from the main Vampire Survivors series’ real-time shoot ’em up format and uses turn-based, card-driven combat. Players clear five floors to complete a run. Characters, weapons and other elements from the original series appear in the spin-off but are used inside a deck-building loop rather than in continuous action sequences.

A map for each floor remains visible during runs, allowing players to choose routes and encounters based on their current cards and items. Between encounters players can adjust their decks and tactics. Runs are shorter than a typical Vampire Survivors session and emphasize planning, card management and resource choices over prolonged reflex-based survival.

Poncle and Nosebleed Interactive designed the game around repeated, compact runs that encourage experimenting with different card combinations and paths through each floor. The visible floor maps and turn-based structure give players discrete decision points at each step of a run.

The game is available now on the PlayStation Store for PS5. The price under $9 and the user review score are shown on the store page.
