Granny's Rampage
Grandma got a minigun. The suburbs will not recover.
Granny's Rampage is a bullet heaven set across five stages of demonic suburbia. You play a gun-toting grandmother who's had enough, mowing down the hordes of zombies, demon squirrels, possessed Karens, and flaming hell knights that have decided her cul-de-sac is fair game. It's auto-fire bullet heaven in the Vampire Survivors tradition — your weapons handle the shooting, you handle the positioning, and the screen fills with chaos until either you or hell does.
How it plays
You start with a minigun and pick up new weapons by defeating stage bosses — the chainsword for melee crowd control, the flamethrower for sustained area denial. Each weapon has its own animation and upgrade rules, and the level-up system gives you five passive upgrade paths to specialize across runs: more damage, more range, more pickups, more survivability, more chaos. Speed boost gems drop from defeated enemies to keep momentum building, and the enrage mechanic fires when you drop below 20% health — useful if you're disciplined, fatal if you're not.
Five stages, five bosses, five soundtracks. Each stage has a unique enemy roster, custom music, and a boss fight that gates progression. Make it through all five and you reach The Hellfather — the final encounter and the only thing standing between Granny and a quiet evening on the porch. Three difficulty settings (Easy, Medium, Hard) let you tune the experience to taste. Easy is for getting your bearings. Hard is for proving something.
Where to play
Granny's Rampage is on itch.io for $2.99 (Windows download) and on Google Play for $2.99 (Android, with mobile-adapted controls). The full Steam release lands June 22, 2026, also $2.99. Same game on all three platforms. Wishlist on Steam if that's your preferred storefront — the page is live now and accepting wishlists ahead of launch.
Built with Phaser 3 wrapped in Electron for desktop, the game runs on practically anything: Windows 10 or later, an Intel Core i3-6100 / AMD Ryzen 3 1200 or equivalent, 4GB RAM, integrated graphics. No GPU bottlenecks. The build clocks in at 500MB and starts in seconds.
What's it like
If you came up through Vampire Survivors, Brotato, or Halls of Torment, the loop will feel immediately familiar — but Granny's Rampage leans harder into stage variety than most of its peers. Each of the five stages has its own visual identity, enemy mix, and music, so the experience changes meaningfully as you progress instead of becoming pure attrition against a longer timer. The Karens are particularly memorable. So is what happens when one possesses an SUV.
Granny's Rampage is developed by SB Choost, Choost Games' solo experimental label, and ships under the Choost Games publishing label.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long is a typical run of Granny's Rampage?
Most runs land between 20 and 30 minutes — long enough to build out a satisfying weapon stack, short enough to fit between meetings. The five-stage structure means you're hitting a new boss roughly every 5-6 minutes, so the pacing keeps moving. Hard difficulty pushes runs longer; Easy keeps them tight.
What platforms is Granny's Rampage on?
Windows desktop and Android mobile. Available on itch.io ($2.99 Windows download) and Google Play ($2.99 Android) right now, with the Steam launch (also $2.99) on June 22, 2026. Same game on all three platforms — mobile uses adapted touch controls but the gameplay, content, and balance are identical. The desktop version runs on practically any Windows 10 machine; mobile runs on most modern Android phones.
Is Granny's Rampage on mobile?
Yes — Granny's Rampage is available on Google Play for Android right now, $2.99, the same game as the desktop version with mobile-adapted touch controls. iOS support is planned for the future but no firm date yet. The game runs on most modern Android phones; bullet heaven gameplay translates well to phone screens since you're not aiming weapons manually.
Is Granny's Rampage related to Granny's Gambit?
Same studio, same character, completely different game. Granny's Gambit is a Victorian deckbuilder roguelike (turn-based, card-based combat), while Granny's Rampage is a real-time bullet heaven. Both star a stubborn grandmother, but the gameplay loops have nothing in common. Gambit is pay-what-you-want on itch if you want to try the studio's work for free first.
What weapons can Granny use?
You start with a minigun and earn additional weapons by defeating stage bosses — the chainsword for melee crowd control, the flamethrower for sustained area denial. Each weapon has its own animation style and upgrade path. The five passive upgrade trees let you specialize across runs: damage, range, pickups, survivability, and chaos.
Is there controller support?
Yes. Granny's Rampage supports keyboard and gamepad. Movement is WASD or left stick; everything else (level-up choices, pause, menu) maps cleanly to either input.
When does Granny's Rampage launch on Steam?
June 22, 2026. The Steam page is live now and accepting wishlists — pre-launch wishlists are the single biggest factor in launch-day visibility, so they genuinely help indie games like this one.
