Introducing Stealth Pinball, the Newest Twist in the Pinball RPG, Rollers of the Realm: Reunion!
Pinball. Its loud bings and bongs can easily be heard across a crowded arcade or bar, making itself known to every patron in an establishment. But this ain’t your grandpappy’s pinball. This is stealth pinball.
This is Rollers of the Realm: Reunion.
Today, the fine folks at Phantom Compass are proud to unveil a new gameplay twist in their highly-anticipated — and highly ambitious — pinball RPG, Rollers of the Realm Reunion. Several playfields in the Realm feature marble-rolling, stealth gameplay, where the pinball heroes must battle pinball-board physics and navigate maze-like environments, avoiding guards and exploring to find keys and other helpful pick-ups.
Following in the footsteps of stealth greats like Metal Gear Solid, Rollers of the Realm: Reunion’s top-down stealth playfields require careful planning and navigation. You must learn the lay of the land and pay close attention to the guard patrol patterns, stay out of their line of sight, and have somewhere to run if things go sideways. And be sure to avoid obstacles in your path — a broken vase or box will alert the guards to your position and bring your mission to an abrupt end!
The roster of hero balls allows players to customize the difficulty of these sections, as each one varies in speed and maneuverability. For example, the Rogue has a natural advantage in sneaky scenarios, being the fastest and nimblest of the heroes, while the Knight is weighed down by their protective armor, and is more difficult to control. Whoever players decide to roll with, it’ll take a lot of skill to save the Realm and become a legend!

About Rollers of the Realm, Reunion:
The successor to 2014’s Rollers of the Realm, Reunion expands and improves upon its predecessor’s medieval questing and bombastic pinball arcade action with a new campaign storyline, loads of party and hero customization options, competitive leaderboards, and even a two-player cooperative mode! Players are invited to plunge into a medieval fantasy world where battling creepy goblins or tentacled beasts means warming up your flipper-fingers and using rpg-styled “character” balls to smash through or sneak around your foes, traps, and targets.
Key Features of Rollers of the Realm: Reunion:
- An Unlikely Fellowship: Classic flipper-focused pinball meets rich role-playing in a mashup sure to tickle the fancy of both pinball enthusiasts and RPG fans alike
- Baller Companions: Choose from four different pinball heroes including the Knight, Mage, Rogue, and Healer with each offering distinct physics modifiers, ball sizes, and upgradeable gear
- Dungeon Master: Personalize the party’s progression through stats and equipment to best suit the trials ahead. Perhaps unleashing powerful magical abilities to weaken enemies as the Mage would be best before sending the Knight in?
- There and Back Again: Overcome fearsome foes, labyrinthine mazes, and noggin’ scratching puzzles in a quest to conquer the 30+ missions and 24 playfields in a thrilling campaign mode
- Two Heads are Better than One: No need to brave the long road ahead alone thanks to two-player cooperative play where each player controls a flipper
Rollers of the Realm: Reunion, will launch in 2022 on Steam and the Epic Games Store. Be sure to follow Phantom Compass on Twitter and Facebook to keep up to date on everything they’re doing!
