Bounce Castle
Bounce Castle is a physics-based strategy RPG where precision, planning, and chaos collide! Players carefully aim and sling their team of heroes across hazard-filled arenas, using a wide range of skills and abilities to outsmart and outclass enemies in an effort to protect the precious Flow Crystals, which power your heroes. Each of the game's several unique Regions presents players with a gauntlet of traps, puzzles, and tactical decisions, culminating in a colossal boss battle with members of the diabolical and uptight organization know as The Order!
Along the way, players can upgrade their heroes' unique abilities to suit their playstyles. But tread carefully! With limited resources and danger in every corner, each sling and ricochet comes with risk. Players will face gruesome goblins, slippery slimes, and skeletal scoundrels… not to mention tons of traps and curveballs that would absolutely love to ruin a good run. Each Region is a leap into the unknown, and every decision brings players one bounce closer to the final showdown with The Order's Queen in Bounce Castle's corrupted Throne Room!
- Tactics Without the Grid: A tactical game with no grid and no hexes. Bounce around obstacles, ricochet shots, or boop enemies into pits. Think pinball meets pool meets mini‑golf… with swords and fireballs.
- Defend the Flow Crystals: Protect the Kingdom's Flow Crystals at all costs or lose your main resource: Flow. Run out of Flow and it's game over, pal. Game over.
- Physics Meets Strategy: Enemies telegraph their attacks, giving you a chance to counter strategically. Sure, wiping them out is ideal, but limited Flow means clever plays will often win the day.
- A Hero's Armory of Abilities: Discover dozens of abilities, each with its own brand of strategy and chaos. Blast foes away with Gust or line up precision shots with Piercing Arrow.
- An Ever-Changing Kingdom: Each Region features a variety of randomized Chambers that keep every run feeling fresh. New layouts with new hazard placements and new surprises with every run.
- Unlockable Teams: Complete achievements to earn Unlock Tokens and gain access to new Hero teams, each with their own unique skills, abilities, and mechanics.
