Goblet Rush

Features
Read full description

Goblet Rush is a score-driven arcade action game where you shoot, strike, dash, and slow time to defeat the horde and seize the goblet before the clock runs out. The horde is loose, the goblet is locked away, and the clock is already ticking! Open locked chests to discover random shot augments. Every augment stacks, allowing your shots to split into triple volleys, pierce enemy lines, ricochet off walls, and explode—all at once. Open every chest and transform each attack into an increasingly powerful barrage. Fight for more than survival. Every enemy defeated, coin collected, chest opened, and critical hit adds to your score. Keep up the pressure, drive your multiplier higher, and turn every stage into a new personal best. Survive until the gate opens. Then race against the final countdown, seize the goblet, and get out alive. Blast monsters from range or risk close-range spear strikes for a bigger score payoff. Dash past enemies and traps, manage your gun’s heat, and keep attacking to charge slow motion. When time bends, turn the chaos to your advantage and fight through enemies and projectiles crawling around you. Escaping with the goblet completes the stage, but the best runs demand more. Find every chest, keep your score multiplier alive, reach the target score, and escape with the goblet to earn all three stars. Collect coins and gems to permanently improve your weapons and stats. Increase your gun’s damage and fire rate, strengthen your spear, improve your health and movement speed, enhance items, and make every augment more powerful. Return stronger and push your high scores even further. Fight through 20 dungeon stages filled with enemies, keys, treasure, traps, and escalating challenges. Replay completed stages, improve your best scores, earn achievements, and build the strength needed for the next dungeon. Twenty stages. Three stars in each. A higher score is always waiting. Can you survive the horde, seize the goblet, and beat your best score before time runs out?
