About this game

Inspired by Balatro, Slay the Spire, and Vampire Survivors, The Cascadier blends coin-pusher chaos with roguelike deckbuilding. Charge coins with elemental abilities, drop them into evolving pinball-style cabinets, and trigger explosive chain reactions.

A twist on deckbuilders — The Cascadier turns your deck into explosive coin powers inside magical arcade machines. Charge your coins with elemental powers and unleash devastating combos with the powers of the gods. Combine them to create synergies and smash the coin shelves apart with Fireballs, Towering Coins, Disco Balls, Windy Blasts, and loads more Physics based abilities!

In the pouring rain, a shrouded custodian beckons you inside. Here you’ll meet Fortuna, a mischievous goddess of fortune, and her irritating brother Theodan, god of the time between seconds. Their sibling rivalry spills into every machine and powers that shape your destiny. To win, you must beat every cabinet, master the cascades, and claim the title of The Cascadier!

Each machine is an evolving pinball table packed with hidden ramps, mystery slots, and magical bumpers.  Earn tickets with every run to unlock Trinkets hidden across the machines. Each one grants elemental-infused bonuses you can upgrade permanently through a skill tree, ensuring long-term progression. Stack multiple Trinkets to forge stronger builds and push toward the final machine where Fortuna, the Goddess of Fortune, awaits.

The very first coin Fortuna gives you is unlike any other. It gains experience each time you win it back out of the machine, permanently unlocking new powers as it grows. This coin journeys through every cabinet, evolving with you across runs.

To level it up, you’ll need to win it back before each round ends—a risky challenge that makes every playthrough feel fresh. Don’t panic, though, the First Coin is never lost in a machine—it always returns at the end of a run, stronger if you have earned it. 

Hit the sweet spot and trigger Euphoria Mode—a chaotic burst of unlimited coins, skyrocketing scores, pulsing music, and dazzling effects. Every machine has its own theme and spectacle, so each burst of Euphoria feels wild in its own way.

    Our first patch update is LIVE!

    Greetings, Cascadiers!Over the last few weeks, the team has been hard at work on refining the core gameplay of The Cascadier to make every run more exciting, rewarding, and fun to play.Since securing additional funding, we’ve had the opportunity to take a fresh look at the game’s core mechanics and we’re extremely happy with where things are heading. Let’s dive right into the update and share what the team has been working on. Ability reworkOne of the biggest changes we have made is how abilities work. Instead of manually selecting and activating ability cards during your run, abilities are now attached directly to the machine’s pegs. The pegs are infused with brand-new elemental VFX, and hitting one with your coin will activate its ability. Your coin can hit multiple ability pegs as it travels, allowing you to chain abilities together and create powerful combinations and even higher scores.Keep playing & earn more ticketsRounds no longer automatically end when you reach the target score.You can now continue playing to earn more tickets, giving you more opportunities to build up your run and prepare for the next round and upgrades. Once you do complete a round, you'll also have access to a new set of upgrades.These include upgrades that allow you to:Purchase additional coinsIncrease the score earned from hitting pegsIncrease the score earned from bumpersIncrease the score earned from landing coins in the chutesAdditional changesWe’ve also removed some of the more complicated mechanics from the original version of the game. We want The Cascadier to be easy to pick up and easy to understand, so we’ve streamlined some of the ‘First Coin’ mechanics, reworked certain ability unlocks, and removed the ability-assignment system.We genuinely can’t wait for you to get your hands on the latest update and hear what you think. This is just the beginning in the ongoing development of The Cascadier, and the team is continuing to work hard on improving and adding new content to the...

    Development Update & Funding Secured

    Greetings Cascadiers, We’re super pleased to announce that we have successfully secured funding to continue development until end of February '27! This will allow us to complete development of 'The Cascadier' through early access and finish the game! In our last announcement, we mentioned our goal to find funding while we pause development and it's great that we have secured it and been able to pick up tools to continue development. Over the coming weeks, we’ll be sharing more details about our roadmap and how we intend to take the game through to full release. If you want to keep up with development, announcements, and everything happening behind the scenes, you can join our Discord server here: https://discord.gg/AYVcTmXr4d

    Thank you for your support!

    Greetings Cascadiers,Thank you to everyone who has played our game. We're delighted to see the positive feedback from our players, and the feedback you've shared has been incredibly valuable. From the start, we have tried to be as transparent as possible with the studio and our funding situation. Our goal was to get The Cascadier in the best shape as possible for Early Access with the limited funding we had. The team worked incredibly hard and we are proud of the game we have produced, however, we are aware the game is not perfect. We are actively trying to source additional funding so we can continue with the development of The Cascadier. Our goal is to see The Cascadier all the way through to Early Access, but right now we are unable to continue the development until we source more funding. The Early Access purchases you make will go towards continued development. We are in the process of working with a platform that is soon to be released, which will help give us more discoverability and are looking forward to being able to share more information on this soon. You can join fellow players in our Discord server below, as well as talk to the team behind The Cascadierhttps://discord.gg/AYVcTmXr4d

    The Cascadier Early Access is LIVE!

    Greetings Cascadiers,The Cascadier Beta Early Access is now live on Steam, and we welcome you into the Enchanted Arcade with a 20% launch discount. Along the way, encounter gods and supernatural beings vying for your devotion. Fortuna, the Goddess of Fortune, and her brother Theodan, and the Enchanted Arcades devoted servant, The Custodian. In Early Access, we will progress our Roadmap through to the end of 2026, completing the base game and adding new features, machines and content to make the game even more enjoyable. One of our main priorities is to listen to community feedback and focus on features you want to see. The best place for you to make suggestions is in our Discord Server. As we mentioned in our last post, you WILL come across bugs, and it's pretty broken in places, so please also send us your bugs through our Discord Server. Remember the game needs your support for us to finish it. We have a big addition to the core game loop planned where the arcade will change it's look and feel based on which god you tribute your coins to on each playthrough, and the final machine will be upgraded to show the full battle between Theodan and Fortuna. We have more content planned, but to make it we need to support our team with money, so help us make this game complete by telling your friends to grab an Early Access copy. Thank you to everyone who has supported us on our journey so far. We can't wait for you to enjoy The Cascadier with us, and see it grow to 1.0 which we plan to launch at the end of the year. https://discord.gg/AYVcTmXr4d Early Access Roadmap

    Early Access Roadmap Revealed! 7 days to Launch!

    Greetings Cascadiers,The countdown begins! 7 days until ‘The Cascadier’ launches into Early Access! In this community post, we will be revealing the Early Access Roadmap that showcases updates, polish and additional content for ‘The Cascadier’ throughout 2026, as well as our Game Director and Co-Founder of Enchanted Arcade, Clarke, reflects on the journey leading up to Early Access so far and the future plans for the studio. Message from Clarke Hey all, Clarke here, Game Director for The Casacadier and co-Founder for Enchanted Arcade. First off, thanks for giving us even a second of your time to look at our silly little videogame. It means the world to the team and we are delighted to share our progress. Back in 2024 we started concepting and drawing up ideas for a simple coin pusher game, intending to build a simple and addictive little game loop inspired by Balatro, Peglin and loads of other indie titles that people love to play. We landed on a light story based game called "The Cascadier". We pulled together a scrappy team of individuals, working part time alongside other projects and jobs to get a basic functional Unity vertical slice done, and we achieved our goal in May 2025. Since then we have been trying to find funding, working to get the game to a baseline playable level so we could get to Early Access and actually land full funding to complete development and finish the game to 1.0 by end of 2026. The team have worked super hard in the short time we have had to get our game into it's late Alpha state it's now in. There are LOTS of bugs, and it's pretty broken in places. Animations, sound and some music are still missing and text needs some work. We are missing abilities, trinkets, even whole levels but we have our plan to add it all in the coming months, we just need to close out our last funding round to do so. You supporting us with your early access purchase helps us get to that goal, going from Alpha into Beta and finally 1.0. There is lots to do and ...
