Vampire Survivors: Emergency Meeting Review (robilar5500)
Alright. Vampire Survivors: Emergency Meeting is a map where fun is priority number one. It is of course a collaboration with Among Us and you can unlock Among Us characters and weapons/abilities. In related news, it is still hilarious to play Among Us and use the name Imposter lol. Anyway,

The map is really cool with a crashed spaceship and outdoors theme, and enemies that range from aliens to Among Us looking aliens to androids/robots to shapeshifters. And the main boss of this level is a creepy giant alien baby thing with two tentacle arms you have to destroy before working on its massive body. Hopefully before death shows up. You definitely want to go with more AoE, AoE buffs and super quick abilities for this map if at all possible. The music is of course chip tune banger as always.

Also, there is a new gameplay mechanic wherein you get a news ticker on the bottom of the screen after some alarms start blaring. The ticker tells you to step on a certain something to "prevent tourists" from showing up, and similarly amusing scenarios lol. If you don't get to those spots in time, little explosions start happening all around you. Conversely, if you do make it in time, you get a chest with five upgrades! There is a timer for each of these alarms, so you do know exactly how long you have, but that also adds a layer of tension not present in other maps. Which I thought was very cool.

Now that I've played it a couple times, I think this is my new favorite map, newness bias be damned, lol. This is definitely a DLC that shouldn't be overlooked.
