Quick answer

Use App guides if you play the VOODOO App.

Look for package games.rivvy.monstersurvivors, App-style heroes, gear, Gilded Cores or permanent upgrades.

Use Play Online if you opened the browser game.

The FreezeNova browser version has its own controls, run flow and local browser experience. App builds and gear advice do not apply there.

Which Screen Are You Looking At?

Use the first matching clue. If two clues conflict, follow the entry point: installed App or browser page.

VOODOO APP

You probably have the App if...

  • You installed it from an app store page.
  • The package shown is games.rivvy.monstersurvivors.
  • Your problem is about heroes, gear, Gilded Cores, permanent upgrades or account progression.
  • You need a complete build route across hero, weapon, equipment and skills.
BROWSER VERSION

You probably have the browser game if...

  • You launched it from the site's Play Online page.
  • You are using browser controls such as WASD, arrows and click-to-select upgrades.
  • You want a quick no-download session in a web page.
  • Your question is about online play, unblocked access or browser loading.

Pick the line that sounds most like your current problem.

I just started the App.

Use a safe first route before spending scarce resources or chasing a tier label.

Open Beginner Guide → 2

I need a full App build.

Connect hero, weapons, gear, skills and map goal into one working loadout.

Open Best Builds → 3

My App weapon choice feels wrong.

Check whether you need crowd coverage, focused damage, close protection or a flex role.

Open Best Weapons → 4

I am about to spend Gilded Cores.

Pause and check whether the spend improves your main route or only a temporary side plan.

Open Gilded Cores → 5

I only want the browser game.

Launch the separate web version and use the short controls or browser FAQs.

Open Play Online → 6

The browser game is blocked.

Use the unblocked FAQ instead of trying App build fixes on a browser access issue.

Warning

Stop Before Copying a Build Across Versions

A weapon name, hero name or upgrade idea can look useful while still belonging to the wrong version. If the screen, progression system or entry point does not match, switch guides before spending resources.

Safe for App guides

  • Build planning for a long-term App account.
  • Hero, gear and weapon-role decisions.
  • Gilded Core and permanent upgrade choices.

Keep on browser pages

  • WASD, arrow-key and iframe loading issues.
  • Unblocked access and online play questions.
  • Browser-only weapon or map routes.

Version note for guides

If Your Game Looks Different, Come Back Here

App pages on this site are written for the VOODOO Monster Survivors App. The separate browser game has a smaller web-play focus, so App heroes, gear, Gilded Cores and permanent account routes should not be used as browser instructions.

FAQ

Version Questions

Are the App and browser version the same game?

No. Treat them as separate versions. App guides on this site cover the VOODOO App and package games.rivvy.monstersurvivors. The Play Online page is for the separate browser version.

Which version are the build and tier list pages for?

The current build, tier list, best weapons, best gear, Gilded Cores and upgrades pages are App-first pages. Use them when your question is about App account progression.

Where do I go for the browser game?

Use Play Online. If the page is blocked or loading poorly, use the unblocked and online/offline FAQs instead of App progression guides.

Can I use browser weapon advice in the App?

Only use advice when the game screen and system match. Browser-only weapon routes, map routes or evolution advice should not be applied to App gear, hero or resource decisions.
