Blunderworld is a goofy roguelike where you shoot a disc around a board to take over Hell. Inspired by games like carrom, crokinole, and coin pushers, Blunderworld asks: "What if you could shoot a disc and watch a big number increase at the same time?" You play as an alchemist who plans on overthrowing Hell with their Opus. Knock out as many pieces as you can to collect Souls and pass each level's goal. As you delve deeper, you'll collect Pacts that power up your Opus. Summon hordes of pieces, create powerful board effects, and of course, rack up game-breaking multipliers. Manage your gold to purchase upgrades and guide your build towards victory. Or gamble it all away at the roulette wheel. The choice is entirely yours. In order to take the throne of Hell, you'll need to conquer the Lords of Sin. Each layer of Hell has a unique boss with their own special mechanics, personality, and evolving dialogue. The Lords will push your build to its limits, so be prepared! Too good at the game? No worries. After you beat the main game, you'll unlock challenge modes with new bosses, mechanics, and dialogue. There's also tons of upgrades and rule sets to unlock as you play, too. How far can you make it in Hell?
