MatchR: Now Hiring blends match-3 puzzles with roguelike RPG runs on PC. Players battle colleagues and bosses by matching orbs to charge mana and unleash skills, or by leveraging specialty orbs unique to each of six characters. Character traits shape strategies, boosting power from match-4s, skill use, or bombs, while loot and purchases add new ones to fit your playstyle.
Every run starts fresh with one trait and builds through adaptive challenges that ramp up difficulty for bigger rewards. Collect MatchR tokens to buy stickers from a capsule machine, stacking them on your ID badge for run-boosting effects-rarer ones like misprints let you fit more. Casual players who love replayable Puzzle Quest-style battles and Slay the Spire deckbuilding will keep coming back.
MatchR is a Match-3 roguelike RPG that combines a battle system inspired by
Puzzle Quest with the replayability of roguelikes like
Slay the Spire.
MATCH YOUR WAY UP
Battle your way through your colleagues to the big bosses of MatchR. You can win battles using several methods:
- Charging your mana through matches then activating your skills,
- Making matches using your specialty orb - different for each character - which will deal damage to the enemy,
- Planning your plays around your character traits to gain as much power as possible.
EVER CHANGING RUNS
You will begin each run with a single
character trait and loot or buy new ones along the way. They will help you in various ways such as: giving you boost in powers on match-4s, whenever you use your skills, strengthening your bombs... Find the ones that suit and enhance
your playstyle!
CHOOSE YOUR CHARACTER
With
6 playable characters and
3 starting character traits for each, you will find the one that suits you the most, and with
costumes and
backgrounds to unlock, they will even look different every run!
STICKER COLLECTIONS
You will be able to spend your MatchR tokens on the
capsule machine to gain
stickers between runs to decorate your ID Badge and apply their effects, helping you in the subsequent runs. They range from common to unique, plain to shiny, and even two stickers of the same type can apply a different value or percentage on its effect. You can also find rare misprints reducing the size of the sticker, allowing you to put even more of them on your badge! MatchR rewards finding
perfect stickers, so keep on trying!
ADAPTATIVE DIFFICULTY
Is the game too easy now that your badge is full of stickers? Don’t worry, you can turn on new challenges which will make your run harder but also more rewarding, so try to put your skills to the test!
