About this game
Pachinko Meets Roguelike Depth
At its heart, Rochinko is a game of calculated shots and glorious, unpredictable chaos. Aim your ball at the top of the board and watch it cascade downwards, smashing into monsters and shattering treasure chests. Every enemy you defeat, every pin you strike, contributes to the beautiful mayhem. Funnel gold coins through multipliers at the bottom to fund your quest, but manage your limited supply of balls carefully. Run out, and you’ll have to pay to keep the fight going. Clear the board to advance, or your run will meet a swift end. Between levels, merchants tempt you with powerful items and upgrades.
Key Features
18 Special Balls: Unleash orbs that cast lightning onto foes, split into magical runes upon destruction, generate a fortune of coins with every hit, or even bend the laws of gravity itself.
341 Items: Build your deck with cards ranging from common buffs (like extra gold on clears) to epic abilities (such as reclaiming lost balls or merchant discounts). Rarities unlock game-changing effects for endless build variety.
Dynamic Pachinko Combat – Physics-driven chaos with strategic aiming, gold multipliers, and bosses every 10 levels.
Merchant & Upgrades – Reroll shop offerings for a fee or invest in ball damage upgrades.
Night Events – Risk/reward encounters where you can gain, lose, or uncover fragments of the kingdom’s lore.
Journey through 10 zones, from the Kingdom Outskirts to the treacherous Necromancer’s Fortress. Each zone ramps up the danger with tougher monsters, unique environments, and boss encounters.
After each level, the sun sets, and the night brings both opportunity and danger. Will you discover ingredients to craft a powerful potion? Find a cache of forgotten gold? Or will thieves steal your precious resources in the dark? You may even encounter lost souls who share fragmented memories of the kingdom’s fall, slowly revealing the grim truth behind the darkness.
With roguelike replayability at its heart, Rochinko offers infinite runs where every decision, from ball selection to item synergies, creates wildly different experiences. Experiment with gravity-flipping orbs, coin-generating bounces, or fire-over-time effects to conquer the 100-level gauntlet.
