What is Peglin?

Peglin is a single-player, turn-based roguelike that sends a peglin through woods, a fortress, and a dragon's lair to recover stolen gold. In each run, you fire orbs into pachinko-style boards, hitting pegs to build attacks, then collect and upgrade orbs and relics across a changing map; defeat ends the run.

For you if...

+you enjoy mixing pachinko physics with turn-based roguelike runs
+you like improvising builds from random orbs and relics
+you enjoy replaying runs at progressively higher difficulty levels

Not for you if...

−you dislike heavy randomness in combat and build planning
−you want many distinct areas across a long campaign

What players say

84% of 17,700 reviews are positive · 78% of 89 in the last 30 days

Players praise the pachinko combat, particularly watching orbs bounce and combining them with relics into effective builds. Common complaints focus on heavy randomness, repetitive runs through a small set of areas, and higher difficulty levels that can demand near-perfect synergies.
