Megabonk is a 3D roguelike-survival game that has taken over. Taken over what? Yes. Nobody saw Megabonk coming. Many people like to think that but this time, it's true. It's like Vampire Surivors in a bazaar Minecraft World with the most absurd enemies, and it works.

Gamers are responding by throwing all their savings at the developer Vedinad. An inside source has revealed that Megabonk has already sold more than 1.5 million copies. Vedinad was dialed in when he made this freaky survival game.



From skateboarding skeletons to giant werewolves, Megabonk will make you feel thrillingly disoriented. All the while, the enemies just keep surrounding you. You better stay shooting.

This game took so many memes and shoved them into a survival genre, but did it well. If you want a good distraction from your everyday responsibilities, this game could fill that void. We suggest you set limits on yourself so you don't end up on a steep down spiral.



Many survival games like to put you into open areas with nowhere to hide. The developer showed some mercy and provides buildings and bunny hopping, so you'll have half a chance of living five minutes until you get past tier 3. There are mixed reviews for this game. Some gamers even say that some of the music isn't exactly soothing. Then there are gamers who want the soundtrack nominated for an award as the best album of the year. So you'll either love or hate the music. There's no in between.

Regardless, millions of gamers have already become addicted, and they're steadily Megabonking right now. It's a reminder that ratings aren't everything. People wanting to play a game, and keep playing it, is ultimately all that matters.
