Secrets in Vampire Survivors: How to Unlock Secret Characters
Vampire Survivors is a gothic action game with a top-down view, where players fend off hordes of monsters. The player's task is to move around the arena and collect crystals dropped by enemies while the hero automatically kills the monsters. There are secrets in the game that can be used to unlock unique characters. We will talk about them in this guide.
How to Unlock the Secrets Menu
All secrets are entered through a special menu. It can be opened in two ways:
- Find Forbidden Scrolls of Morbane. They drop from Sketamari, which are located in the southern part of Bone Zone. On the map, they are displayed as a question mark.
- Click on the penultimate relic icon seven times. The Yellow Sign is located in this cell. If you do everything correctly, the message You are now a magician! will appear.
How to Unlock Secret Characters in Vampire Survivors
Each of the secret characters looks like an ordinary enemy. They can be unlocked through certain actions, which we will describe below. After the word Algorithm, you will find a clear sequence of actions. When you meet all the conditions, a characteristic sound signal will play. After that, the hero can be purchased with gold coins. If the character is unlocked in a different way, we will indicate this in the description.
