About This Game

BLACKBELL is a single-player gothic cartoon auto-battler roguelite. Gather an unlikely company, decide where every fighter stands, then ring the bell and watch your plan hold or fall apart on its own.

YOUR WORST IDEA MIGHT WORK.

Recruit fighters from the shop and watch the Traits they share. Field enough fighters with the same Trait and it wakes up for the whole company, so the right cheap recruit can matter as much as the strongest one on offer.

BUILD A COMPANY

Three copies of a fighter merge into a stronger 2★ form, and three of those make a 3★. Every star level has its own drawing, so you can see the payoff on the field.

EVOLVE YOUR UNITS

Choose your path across each act's map: fights, markets, the Forge, Challenges, quiet places to rest, and well over a hundred events, some with stories that carry on through the run. Oddities picked up along the way bend the rules in small, strange ways.

CREATE YOUR OWN BUILD. SYNERGIZE.

Every recruit carries Traits. Field enough fighters who share one and it wakes up for the whole company. A cheap recruit with the right Trait can matter more than an expensive one without it. Stack one Trait hard or mix three. Your call.

EVERY RUN GETS A LITTLE STRANGER

Each act is a map of choices: battles, elites, markets, the Forge, rest stops and well over a hundred events, some with stories that follow you through the run. Oddities picked up along the way bend the rules in small, peculiar ways. And sometimes a door appears that should not be there. Step through and the rest of the act happens somewhere else.

MEET THE LOCALS & NEIGHBOURS

(Warning: some may not be friendly.) Every act ends with a boss that fights by its own rules, and the places behind those doors keep bosses of their own.

MEET THE LOCALS & NEIGHBOURS

Six Travellers can lead the company, each pulling a run in a different direction. Finish a run to open the next Ascension. And climb the Spire opens: fifty floors where fallen fighters stay fallen.

Build your company. Set the stage. Break the Bell.
