Set in Peachville, the game casts you as one of several unusual heroes fighting waves of monsters. Each character has a distinct starting weapon or ability, shaping how you approach a run.
Move through the arena, defeat enemies, and collect silver ingots to buy skills. Spend gold to reroll the available skills, choosing among physical attacks, spells, and summons as you build your character.
Pair specific skills to create stronger combined abilities and develop a build for the run. Talent points provide progression between runs, and defeating bosses can unlock additional heroes.
In the supplied reviews, players often enjoy experimenting with skill combinations and watching a build become powerful, as well as the distinctive paper-cutout look and varied heroes. Some also appreciate the quick, approachable runs. Common frustrations include random skill rolls that can make builds hard to complete, limited replay depth after trying the main combinations, and steep difficulty at higher settings.
We have it all (or some)! The sword master hero, the fireball totting maiden, a mechanically adept summoner, a great yellow canine who literally creates gold, a master of bacon... Well, each character is unique, to say the least!
Finely crafted cardboard cutout characters give the game a unique and fun feel as you fight your way to godhood! Come and give the monsters a whack as you blow up the screen with fireballs and black holes, and then some!
Master specific skills that create synergies with one another to cause mayhem and destruction. In Peachville, 1+1 is not 2, it is at least 4.5! What devastating synergies are there, you ask? You'll just have to figure that out for yourself! How many synergies can you find today?
Rabbits, ducks...... strange and interesting poultry have a hundred skills with armed evolution and treatment suppression both.
Each upgrade may be what takes you from wimp to hero! Spend gold to reroll your skill selections! Oh, and gain meta-progression in the shape of talent points to make your runs easier as you progress!
