Pinball games and RPGs don’t exactly go together like peanut butter and jelly, but Toronto-based developers Phantom Compass and veteran publisher Atlus will have a few tricks up their sleeves this upcoming holiday season. Featuring simple pick-up-and-play gameplay and a story that any RPG fan will appreciate, “Rollers of the Realm” will be a unique title, but it’ll be an accessible one as well.
Indie developers Phantom Compass have released a new dev video for "Rollers of the Realm: Reunion" explaining the mashup mechanics of a pinball RPG.
Rollers of the Realm Reunion, the second instalment in the 'Rollers' series has been announced for 2022 for PC.
Excerpt - The gameplay mechanics are your typical video game pinball: flippers, bumpers, teleport holes, rails, etc. What makes it different is that each character in your party is represented by one of your balls on the table. Each ball has its own specialty. The Rogue has the ability to steal gold from characters on the table and does "backstab" damage to enemies.
