Mischkablaster

Ten players, one screen

Mischkablaster is a fast arcade bomb game: place bombs, blow up crates, grab power-ups and be the last one standing. Up to 10 players share a single PC – two keyboard halves plus a controller for everyone else. Controllers can be plugged in while a match is running.

Play together

Local – up to 10 players at one PC. Online – Steam lobbies with friend invites, or a direct IP connection. Windows and Linux play together. Friends see what you are playing in their Steam friends list and join with one click. Or join a dedicated server – the server list shows how many people are online. Teams – 2 to 5 teams, friendly fire is on. Tournament – several sessions in a row with a points table. Spectate and reconnect – join as a spectator, or drop into a running match and play the next one; if the connection breaks, the game reconnects by itself.

Nine game modes

Classic – last one standing wins. Hold the crown – wear the crown for 30 seconds to win. Collect coins – first to 10 coins wins. Kick only – no power-ups, pure skill. Turf – explosions paint the floor, the biggest turf wins. Hot Bomb – pass it on by touching someone; whoever holds it when it blows is out. Bomb Ball – two teams, one ball, goals on the left and right. Infection – whoever gets caught joins the hunt; the last one left wins. Waves – everyone together against ever stronger enemies.

Plus game speed from 75 to 150 %, round time, collapse, diseases and revenge mode as you like.

Campaign with thirteen bosses – alone or as a pair

Thirteen worlds with five stages each, one of them secret. Almost every stage holds a surprise: crate monsters, ambushes, lights out, position swaps, bomb rain, gusts of wind and more. Conveyor belts in the factory, ice on the lake and mud in the swamp change the way you move. At the end of every world a boss waits, each with its own pattern and several lives. Every world also has a challenge, a small mini-game: blow up crates, hunt coins, dodge bombs, solve puzzles or escort a ward to the goal. Every stage remembers your best time – beat the target time to earn a star. And if you want more: face every boss in a row in the Boss Marathon, or climb as high as you can in the Endless Tower.

Map editor

Build your own arenas with walls, crates, conveyor belts, portals, power-up spots and a crown spot, in any theme, with symmetry and templates. Online, everyone gets your map automatically. The editor is fully playable with a controller.

Power-ups, diseases, chaos

More bombs, more fire, more speed, kick, glove, remote detonator, line bombs, shield, piercing bombs and a vaccine. Or you catch the skull: super speed, mini bombs, reversed controls, endless bombs. Conveyor belts push you along, portals send you to the other end – and in the last minute the outer rings of the arena collapse.

And the rest

Replays of every finished session, at half, normal or double speed – and shareable with friends. Lobby emotes: heart, trophy, anger and more at the press of a button. 26 achievements, statistics and an Elo rating with a free Clanwirtschaft account – it plays exactly the same without one. Nine characters in ten colours, eight themes and seven layouts plus your own maps. Your own music: just drop MP3, OGG or WAV files next to the game. 18 interface languages.
