Whacking Hell! for PlayStation 5

Frantic roguelike-inspired shooting game

Whacking Hell! is a premium action title created by Sanuk Games. It is a top-down shooter featuring rogue-lite elements where players must whack waves of monsters from hell. Compared to Vampire Survivors, with 82 playable characters, this game features as few as five characters in its collection.

Hell is empty

In Whacking Hell!, swarms of monsters let loose from the very depths of hell are after your soul. Armed with powerful weapons and spells, you must fight back until not one of them is left standing. The game incorporates bullet hell elements, which involve dodging projectiles at times.

You can unlock five characters and weapons as you progress through the game’s three chapters, each increasing in difficulty and with two bosses. Plus, you can acquire special abilities and upgrade your weapons within or in between sessions. The game’s limited collection, though, might affect its replayability.

A mid-core worth a try

While its collection is not a spread, comprising a meager five characters and weapons, Whacking Hell! still boasts manageable difficulty for players looking for the perfect dose of challenge. On top of that, it combines rogue-lite and bullet hell elements, giving you a taste of two different genres.
