In Ballionaire, you arrange a pachinko-style board and drop balls onto it to earn money. Bumpers and other triggers can redirect, split, or spawn balls, while the balls' paths and collisions determine how the board performs.
Between drops, choose from offered triggers and place them to create scoring chains or other effects. Select boons that modify a run, and adapt your layout as you try to earn enough to meet each round's target.
Each run asks you to meet tribute demands from three Elders while dealing with changing tribulations. Different boards have distinct layouts and rules, and successful runs unlock more triggers; a sandbox lets you test board setups outside a run.
Positive reviews often enjoy planning trigger combinations and watching them produce chain reactions, multiplying scores, or unexpectedly large runs. Players also praise the different board layouts, colorful style, and the ease of fitting in a short session. The sample is mixed: recurring criticisms include outcomes feeling too random, runs becoming repetitive, and balance or limited content reducing the incentive to keep playing.
Ballionaire is a physics-driven roguelike full of kinetic chaos! Build the perfect pachinko board and trigger insane combos. Break the game with rule-bending boons. Overcome arduous tribulations as you climb the ranks of the Ballionaires.
