■ About Halls of Torment
As a gaming enthusiast, I’ve been captivated by the thrilling blend of Diablo and Vampire Survivors in the creation of Halls of Torment. This game, which I eagerly await, is a survival game set in a horde mode that has me on the edge of my seat.

Pick your character and venture into the lethal Chambers of Suffering. Overcome wave upon wave of unspeakable monstrosities. Boost your power by acquiring traits, skills, and artifacts, shaping your character as you delve deeper into the abyss, encountering the paths of the Agonized Rulers.
