Rollers of the Realm: Reunion invites players to delve into a medieval fantasy world where battling creepy goblins and tentacled beasts means warming up your flipper-fingers and bringing RPG-styled “character” balls to bear to smash through or sneak around your foes, traps, and targets. Rollers of the Realm: Reunion’s magical style of play brings a whole new meaning to “Pinball Wizard.”

Rollers of the Realm: Reunion— sequel to the winner of GDC’s prestigious “Best in Play” award in 2014 — is a medieval-themed RPG featuring a clever spin on pinball where the ball features attributes similar to a traditional RPG character. Play as the Rogue and her faithful hound, as they, in the form of a small and fast ball, sneak and steal their way through and around challenges. Or load up the massive Knight ball and bash those town guards and otherworldly monsters! Players will roll throughout the land alone or with a friend in search of powerful ancient artifacts, sweet gear upgrades, and NPC allies in a quest to save the world from certain doom. This is no turn-based affair, as the storyline and character progression take place across scenic pinball playfields! In order to become a hero of legend, players must flip, dash, and nudge their way through every battle or maze. “Pinheads” better brush up on magical incantations and learn to wield an array of awesome character abilities — there’s more than one realm that needs saving!

Rollers of the Realm: Reunion features easy-to-learn controls and an adventure-filled game world inspired by classic pinball cabinets. Players will bounce, flip, and dash through physics-based puzzles to progress the story while leveling up a party of misfit heroes on an epic journey to new worlds. Each character is represented by a ball that offers distinct gameplay modifiers, sizes, stats, and “specials,” — making battles and puzzle-solving a tactical affair where hot-swapping heroes is a must. Sending in a knight to do a mage’s job might not be the smartest move!

Rollers of the Realm: Reunion is a bigger, bolder, and deeper “RPG meets Pinball” experience than ever before, and part of that is due to an entirely revamped map and overworld.

Today, we’re providing a never-before-seen look at the “Roll-around-able World Map” and all the nifty features that come with it!

In the original Rollers, the map followed a more basic, menu-based design. In Reunion, two traversable overworlds reflect distinct campaign environments that change as the game progresses. Players can now meet and interact with a host of charming characters while they’re traveling. Nothing beats making friends on the road, and who knows? They might have some very important knowledge to share with you!

It’s also a great place to check out some sidequests to keep you busy in-between heroic acts of the realm saving variety. As players spin and rotate themselves around the new maps, they’ll also kick off some major story beats. Mysterious locations have lots to offer, and the only way to find them is by exploring! As you conquer each campaign playfield, keep your eyes peeled for tournament booths that provide access to ranked play with leaderboards!
