About the Game

PachiRogue is a chill, 10-minute roguelite where your goal is to rig a pachinko machine to spit out ridiculous amounts of cash. There are no health bars or game overs - just pure, broken economy building.

Rig the Board

Customize your pool with unique balls like heavy marbles or chaotic bouncy balls, and upgrade them to break the laws of physics. Stack passive buffs to rig the odds, multiply your payouts, and trigger massive chain reactions.

Break the Game

If you scale your build hard enough, you'll trigger "Black Swan" upgrades - like cloning every ball you fire or turning wall-bounces into pure profit. The board gets chaotic fast.

Cash Out

When the clock runs out, take your massive earnings back to your Cabinet. Buy permanent upgrades and tweak your loadout before your next shift.
