About the Game


Kodama Battles is a singleplayer autobattler/autochess with roguelite deckbuilder elements in a chill setting.

  • Build your team: Collect, place and upgrade Kodamas to build a powerful team. Kodamas have 3 levels (1,2 then 3 Stars). Many also have a last level making them fuse with another one to create a Mega Kodama.

  • Double battlefield: Teams are separated into an attack and a defense squad for each battle. Mindful team management is required to attack effectively while leaving enough defenses to survive.

  • Unique abilities: Most Kodamas have one straightforward but impactful ability. Mega Kodamas have game changing abilities.

  • Combos: Impactful and diverse abilities lead to many many synergies and counters. Experiment to find new ways to play.

  • Scaling difficulty: Unlock new difficulties upon run completion. The first difficulty is suitable for anyone. But meticulous team management and positioning are required to best the higher difficulties.

  • Playstyle defining paths: The paths chosen bring further customization (modify drop rates, add positioning options...) and will lead to an unique build each run.

  • Strategize peacefully: The calm of a lunar illuminated woodland is perfect to relax and strategize.
