Our take on Beastieball
The defining structure is its open-ended coach progression: every ranked boss is visible from the start, can be challenged in any order, and causes the remaining bosses to strengthen after each victory.
What is Beastieball?
Beastieball combines turn-based volleyball with RPG team management.
Coach a team of Beasties whose relationships develop as they play together, forming pairings such as best friends, partners, rivals, or sweethearts. Each pairing grants a distinct combo move. Matches take place on a small tactics grid: while serving or possessing the ball, choose actions to pass, set up attacks, and strike; while defending, predict the opposing play and respond. Beasties have individual traits, strengths, and weaknesses that shape team combinations.
Explore an open world, challenge ranked coaches, and raise the team’s standing toward the CROWN SERIES. Defeated coaches can later be visited for friendship scenes and additional story. Bosses appear on the map from the beginning, can be tackled in any order, and grow stronger as others are defeated.
