The screen is a mess of bombastic explosions of lighting and fire, and there are not-quite-current-anymore references to things like Gangnam Style hidden in the game. Victor gloomily attacks the armies of spiders, skeletons, and assorted hell beasts in his path with a variety of over the top weapons (shotguns, scythes, giant hammers) with different abilities you can equip two at once and change between them on the fly, so it’s possible to pull off some cool combos. Victor’s adventures roll out in the form of a top down action RPG, with some nicely detailed environments and various challenges to meet in all of them. He sometimes talks out loud about the nature of evil, and how easy it would be to become one of the monsters himself. Victor is always well dressed - you can choose his outfit from a selection that accent his powers in different ways, including a gentleman in a top hat, suit and fur shrug look - and never loses his hat. Victor travels through crypts half collapsed by invasive tree roots, gardens lit by softly glowing lamps, and abandoned town streets accented by heaps of pumpkins. This applies to both the game and the character it takes its name from.
