Between the garlic obsession, literally constantly quoting "big-dick garlic", the hilarious one-liners while simultaneously being completely ignorant of several of the game's mechanics and stage design features combined with a pathological excess of overconfidence leading to foolish deaths makes this both a god-tier entertaining video as well a painfully enraging one to watch at times (and I'm all for it).
LOL yeah. While in the library, looking for the Tome: "Go left? I don't see it. I'm being trolled". While moving 2 inches to the left and backtracking 2 miles to the right. And staying on the bottom section of the map. Rage!!!
Bought it today, played it with my boy, eight years old. Most fun I've had playing a game fora decade, huge thanks for playing it! My son's crazy about it, great way to spend upcoming Easter
it is, first time i saw it was on soda stream couple month ago, and for couple £ sinking in 35h already is huge worth, and it gets updates week to week so there is new stuff to grind
yeah i bought it when it came out and for the first 2 weeks i was hooked, I still go back to it when i want to play something quick. Vampire Survivors loading time 1 sec Lost Ark loading time 1 millenium!
yea i've watched like the first five minutes of the last vid and instantly bought the game cuz it just looked so fun. Then I noticed It was in early access, so theres more content to come. great game and even greater value
Evolved Pentagram is insanely good. It pops off in the late game, and it uses Crown to evolve. When it goes off it no longer deletes stuff, and instead pulls the exp to you. Really good for a bro who wants to stand still like an absolute alpha garlic god.
Yeah, but is such a heavy investment, you need to mostly stick to max it out + get some luck (upgrades or clover that is kinda "meh" and also cross, it's pair weapon, is better unevolved).
@@GespenstMorder Agreed, pentagram is overrated and it can kill runs easily if you fuck up and destroy precious chests on screen. It's only really an alright (read: not "good") choice if you have nothing else to upgrade, but even then.. I can think of other weapons to choose instead which have more utility.
@@GespenstMorder I don't think it's too much of an investment, at least if your goal is to beat the level. I've only put in about ten hours, but I've never struggled recently to hit full build and start leveling for coins. Cross is also Def good, it's a shame that Asmon dislikes it
The primary issue with Penta is by the time you can afford to take it you're down to the last slots in your build. You have to seriously thread a needle for it to shine early/mid and one screw up can cost you a good run. So in most circumstances, it's pulling gold to you, not xp. Plus just run one direction for 5-10 screens then turn around lol
@@TheRealXartaX Crown is garbage? This is a genuine question. I've only really played for like 10 hours, and I thought crown and evolved penta felt pretty nice.
@@soul0172 It takes around 30 mins to clear a round if a success (if failure probably between 20+ where it gets messy) so now you know last run = clear run = last 30 mins up down. Also why read comments before finishing the video, the man above me is right, people are gonna talk about the video they already have watched so you are gonna read spoilers by choice.
I had a full set of evolved weapons and level 50 on Library with an evolved Garlic and I was killing everything while afk because nothing could get near me It hit minute 25 and the Secret Boss of the Library spawned and ran me over while I was tabbed out
Usually I play Asmongold's video in the background and just listen to him while reading novels, now this game makes me watch the whole vod out of its pure entertainment. This is CONTENT
how can you hear words while reading? I read a lot and am quiet fast but I need instrumental music or songs in a language I don't speak, otherwise I get distracted all the time.
This game just proves that you don't need to be fancy to be a fun engaging game. Also, the dev could have blocked reassigning of the power-up and made it like you had to spend gold to do that but they made it all free. Now you can do many builds and use those power-ups in many ways while playing it and you will not get bored cause in a new run when you get more money you can just make a new build.
True, all you need is time till you find out the value of stuff like duplicator, power ups, evolutions and even the coins just take sometime, by the time you get used to the gameplay you are progressing on unlocks and permanent powerups or new characters to experiment.
@@catdragons If you have a full item bar and pick up an item on the map it lets you overflow the limit and take more items then you would normally be allowed to.
One of the most addicting games in a looong time. Very simple and fun game The fact that it's only 3$ and gets regular updates is almost unfair when you look at how much other games make with stupid visual shit

Santa water becomes one of the strongest things especially after you have all the passives since it is buffed by size, duration, cooldown, amount, and speed. You can easily get la borra circles around the size of the bibles ring.
Garlic's a great 1 pointer in any build - having it max'd looks awesome too, but I think most of the fun it has to offer is playing with your health similar to a warlock that's sacrificing health for damage. Garlic in general is similar to applying Necromancer curses on enemies, and Soul Eater is more powerful when you're not at max HP. Both of these encourage you to continually stay up in mob's faces and purposely eat small hits for gains. I like how so many of the weapon evolutions add those macro-level changes.
The enemy HP is based on *your level not the timer,* even bosses. So you don't need to feel pressured to pick up crystals if you will take damage. The crystals won't disappear even though there is a limit to how many will be shown, they eventually merge to create a green or red gem. Chat really likes to yell at him to pick up the crystals...
I know you wont read this, but i'll write you a guide anyway, might help someone else who is starting out.

this game looks pretty great and it's price tag is pretty fair at....only $3!?! this looks sooo worth it, and barely 5 minutes into this video I went and picked it up.
This game is worth $15 easy, it's a great game that will provide tens, if not hundreds of hours of entertainment. It's also constantly updated, which they will continue with in the future as well.
@@Marius_ae But being this cheap IS actually the reason so many people buying it. If they think it sucks, they say "well it was only 3 bucks". But if they pay 15$, and they don't like it, they're going to ask for refund. In the current scenario the dev guy gets to keep way more money. ^^
@@MortimerFolchert I don't think people would complain much if the game was 10 bucks. It's legit fun and engaging, just a bit challenging at the beginning and somewhat grindy but if you don't have time to play the game you don't need to play the game. I'm glad it only costed R$6 for me tho (little more than 1 USD), wouldn't buy it if it was 10 bucks (maybe R$55)
This game is only $3 and could probably run on a smartfridge, but it's the most fun I've had slaughtering armies of zombies since the first time I played Diablo II as a kid
The dev says that the engine he used to make the game is bad. Hes currently porting it to a better engine that he can develop on (porting? transferring? idk the exact word). You'll be getting 120 fps on a toaster at the 30 min mark within the month.
@@nom6758 it's good now. The demo on itch is still garbo tho, it lags like hell on the skeleton swarm, but the updated version runs smooth on whatever.
Yeah. Also the laurel. You can just shove your way out of a dead end with a good laurel and beat the game. This dude doesn't even know what it does, and I think that if he gave the laurel a chance he would have beaten some stage on first day like me. Also it's fine he learns about pushback in this game ffs. How he still thinks the magic wand is just aimbot garbage is beyond me. I isolate the bosses and push my way outta trouble.
Axes, rune, and water seem to jack up dps big time once evolved, but garlic is a constant dps so acts like a consistence aoe melee dps so is almost a must
Garlic is a trap. Amazing early game but falls off HARD after 10 mins, even with its evolution. Anything that gives multiple projectiles, area and damage should be taken.
Dont know why Chat keep hating on Garlic, I mean yeah its dmg will fall off in late game. But I just cant imagine surviving the early phase without using Garlic, except you're lucky enough to get a good evolved weapon early
I'm glad he was able to beat a round, despite his chat dragging him down. The amount of people trying to get him to pick up things he didn't even have access to boggled my mind. So much so, that I was legit getting angry, and had to stop watching for a bit. It's a good thing that he is able to ignore his chat and follow through with his own ideas, and pick out the ones that actually help him.
I love how chat was telling him Garlic was terrible and so low for damage, meanwhile Soul Eater on his 2:00:00 run was 3rd for damage overall and it gives life on kill if Soul Eater is the last hit, not only that, but it also reduces enemy resistance to stuns and knockback by a ton. It's basically a 2x knockback debuff on enemies if not more. People who say Garlic isn't worth it have never used it or read the descriptions. If the enemies can't hit you, you can't die, Garlic+Magic Wand is basically a never die build. The knockback doesn't become invalid with so many enemies on the screen that they're pushing past geometry.
Most people who try the game see Garlic and think it's just useful early game to get tons of EXP, and then don't give it a second thought on other uses. So when they see the damage fall of late game they just deduce it's useless. Garlic doesn't work for every build, unlike something like life-stealing whip, but with the right setup it can become vital.
Asmongod is the king at trolling for content. That fine balance between making risky moves and throwing a good run just so he can restart is hilarious.
Garlic is only OP early to mid game. Damage falls off later. You would need something to deal massive damage later on. Evolved pyro wand (especially since it uses spinach) and evolved axes (because it increases area of attack) are good. Evolved Whip is a better alternative to evolved garlic since it deals massive damage and the healing is much better (not to mention that whip starts off strong and just becomes stronger). evolved king bible is good because it can be used as push-back. Evolved penta is definitely end game but you need something to fend off enemies such as bible. The blue wand imo just sucks overall because it doesn't scale well to end game. The evolved version doesn't add much since it just removes the cooldown.
i had to go and buy this after watching your stream, my god this game is addicting. and technically, you aint beat the game unitl you beat death ( and you can )
can confirm garlic is awesome won 3 times today all garlic baby! like he says is op early and mid if you evolve and if you get projectiles with it late game its still awesome bible axes and wand they all do good dmg and or push back so they have to be in the garlic for longer
3 dollar game providing more entertainment than most 50 dollar games. WoW. Just bought it + gifted to 2 friends to make sure we got it before price bumps up. XD
Water was by far underutilised. He had an inate sense for how good it was clearly since he got it every game but it pulled so much weight. Could have won other games if he didn't send them into the bookcase.

@@Marius_ae But being this cheap IS actually the reason so many people buying it. If they think it sucks, they say "well it was only 3 bucks". But if they pay 15$, and they don't like it, they're going to ask for refund. In the current scenario the dev guy gets to keep way more money. ^^
@@MortimerFolchert yeah no doubt. I was just commenting on his take that the price is «pretty fair». I would say it’s far beyond just pretty fair
@@MortimerFolchert I don't think people would complain much if the game was 10 bucks. It's legit fun and engaging, just a bit challenging at the beginning and somewhat grindy but if you don't have time to play the game you don't need to play the game. I'm glad it only costed R$6 for me tho (little more than 1 USD), wouldn't buy it if it was 10 bucks (maybe R$55)
2:11:42 - "I'm going left guys!" said the guy standing still.
This game is only $3 and could probably run on a smartfridge, but it's the most fun I've had slaughtering armies of zombies since the first time I played Diablo II as a kid
Idk man I get laggy as hell lategame depending on what items I have
True 3$ worth it 100%
What the name ?
The dev says that the engine he used to make the game is bad. Hes currently porting it to a better engine that he can develop on (porting? transferring? idk the exact word). You'll be getting 120 fps on a toaster at the 30 min mark within the month.
@@nom6758 it's good now. The demo on itch is still garbo tho, it lags like hell on the skeleton swarm, but the updated version runs smooth on whatever.
The developers knew what they were doing with that GAME OVER flashing right before STAGE COMPLETED and I love it 😂
Gotta love all the DPS Andy chat saying garlic is bad. Garlic was never designed to be a good DPS item. It’s a protection item.
it hurts them more if you wiggle and they get in and out of the aura, but yeah, it's a health friend when it's evolved.
Yeah. Also the laurel. You can just shove your way out of a dead end with a good laurel and beat the game. This dude doesn't even know what it does, and I think that if he gave the laurel a chance he would have beaten some stage on first day like me.
Also it's fine he learns about pushback in this game ffs. How he still thinks the magic wand is just aimbot garbage is beyond me. I isolate the bosses and push my way outta trouble.
1:17:58 Asmond turns his head and his hair goes up in quality by 90%. Like it actually looks really nice at the right angle.
There are so many streamers that could be playing this game, and only Asmongold could make it this entertaining. Legend.
"Omg garlic is so good at 1 shooting 1 health enemies, how can it be bad?" Pepelul
He does not seem to understand how good tome is... it's literally one of the best items in the entire game
It's eh
garlic + bible + cross + water = best build in the series so far
i stand corrected
Really having a hard time not questioning Asmon's gaming sense after watching him play this for a while.
La Borra really OP tho...but Garlic's good for defense I guess. Not a bad build actually, was a literal god at the end.
I am so happy he's playing this game. It's so good.
Axes, rune, and water seem to jack up dps big time once evolved, but garlic is a constant dps so acts like a consistence aoe melee dps so is almost a must
Ok so ...I go to make some Garlic Bread after seeing this video 😂
Garlic is a trap. Amazing early game but falls off HARD after 10 mins, even with its evolution.
Anything that gives multiple projectiles, area and damage should be taken.
God his chat is insufferable when he's playing this game
How did i sit and just watch this whole thing.... what is life.
This is fun as F*** to watch. Love when he uploads this gameplay
Dont know why Chat keep hating on Garlic, I mean yeah its dmg will fall off in late game. But I just cant imagine surviving the early phase without using Garlic, except you're lucky enough to get a good evolved weapon early
I'm glad he was able to beat a round, despite his chat dragging him down. The amount of people trying to get him to pick up things he didn't even have access to boggled my mind. So much so, that I was legit getting angry, and had to stop watching for a bit. It's a good thing that he is able to ignore his chat and follow through with his own ideas, and pick out the ones that actually help him.
Asmon says garlic for 3 hours straight
I love how chat was telling him Garlic was terrible and so low for damage, meanwhile Soul Eater on his 2:00:00 run was 3rd for damage overall and it gives life on kill if Soul Eater is the last hit, not only that, but it also reduces enemy resistance to stuns and knockback by a ton. It's basically a 2x knockback debuff on enemies if not more.
People who say Garlic isn't worth it have never used it or read the descriptions. If the enemies can't hit you, you can't die, Garlic+Magic Wand is basically a never die build. The knockback doesn't become invalid with so many enemies on the screen that they're pushing past geometry.
Most people who try the game see Garlic and think it's just useful early game to get tons of EXP, and then don't give it a second thought on other uses. So when they see the damage fall of late game they just deduce it's useless.
Garlic doesn't work for every build, unlike something like life-stealing whip, but with the right setup it can become vital.

HUBRIS BE THY NAME !!
The timing was so good! 😄
This game is incredible, insane value for money.
They doubted the garlic BUT LOOK AT HIM NOW
Asmongod is the king at trolling for content. That fine balance between making risky moves and throwing a good run just so he can restart is hilarious.
“I’m going guys, I’m going”
*literally standing still*
We’re caught up playing the impassioned protagonist in our Subjective Narrative of Self🎈
And this game is 3 fucking dollars, it ain't even fair that there's so much fucking game for 3 dollars and every second is a ADHD man's dream
Why is this so entertaining?! Lol
Garlic is only OP early to mid game. Damage falls off later. You would need something to deal massive damage later on. Evolved pyro wand (especially since it uses spinach) and evolved axes (because it increases area of attack) are good. Evolved Whip is a better alternative to evolved garlic since it deals massive damage and the healing is much better (not to mention that whip starts off strong and just becomes stronger). evolved king bible is good because it can be used as push-back. Evolved penta is definitely end game but you need something to fend off enemies such as bible. The blue wand imo just sucks overall because it doesn't scale well to end game. The evolved version doesn't add much since it just removes the cooldown.
i had to go and buy this after watching your stream, my god this game is addicting.
and technically, you aint beat the game unitl you beat death ( and you can )
Saw a guy go at it against 30 Grim reapers at the same time. Fun video.
@@twakilon it's utter madness on the bonus map, I give legit credit to anyone unlocking red death legitimately
can confirm garlic is awesome won 3 times today all garlic baby! like he says is op early and mid if you evolve and if you get projectiles with it late game its still awesome bible axes and wand they all do good dmg and or push back so they have to be in the garlic for longer
Zack having fun huh? I could watch this all day rather than depressing WoW content.
I was yelling at the screen so much
I love how mad chat gets at him when he trolls. Him calling the mummy Frankenstein is hilarious.
3 dollar game providing more entertainment than most 50 dollar games. WoW. Just bought it + gifted to 2 friends to make sure we got it before price bumps up. XD
I love when he throws
If only he stacked recovery with garlic
Garlic is a beginners trap because it is good early game but doesn't do as much damage as others when fully upgraded.
I’m unreasonably upset that he says 500 dps for garlic is insane when he completely ignores that water got up to 7k dps
Water was by far underutilised. He had an inate sense for how good it was clearly since he got it every game but it pulled so much weight. Could have won other games if he didn't send them into the bookcase.
in all these years watching asmon
this is the first time ive seen the NO ELP meme
is hilarious wholesome and cute
especially funny when he is not even asking anything and u still see it
garlic plays well with evolved whip, so if they slip past trhough you just drain tank them.
Best part of the video 1:18:35 "I was worried at first, and now I'm not worried any more". BAM! LMAO
This game is addicting. Such a simple design but super effective
His face when the garlic is evolved lmao
This game should be like 20$, not 5. Is insane how great the value is.
Really vibing with these 3 hour vids on asmon playing this game. Good shit
Asmon went god mode on this game.
Holy shit didn’t expect to watch both videos on this game, suuuuuper fun to watch and entertaining watching asmon play broken telephone w the orbs and items and stuff
Its so fun to watch
$3 for an amazingly fun game. Tripe A release trash for upwards of $60...
30:05
Evolved garlic
1:08:41
Unholy vespers
1:55:12
Haha the Look when He evolving the garlic .
1:44:40 chat: hey he didn’t take garlic! He’s learning!
1:44:50 “gets garlic next level”
His reaction on the Game Over/Stage Completed-screen is priceless! 👍😀
52:48 Spent five minutes straight avoiding the boss that would have given him the upgrade he needed. Ah, beginners' mistakes.
i mean garlic aint bad. i use it all the time for pesky shits. but you still need your main damage weapon.
Cool long play! Loved this, watched it all. Was captivated.
An Asmondgold vampire survivors compilation: 1:18:35 This is tragic. 1:47:1 Finally! I wafting for this moment! 2:06:14 Yo! Asmond got it! 2:13:34 A fun little noise. 2:53:45 And he did it!
the editors are goats editing all this footage. props
I started playing after watching these and I can't believe the freaking game is 3 dollars
