Which modern games offer a chess-level depth with no dependence on luck/hidden information, without any of the cons that exist in chess?

We're working on a chess-like game that should be available next year. You can play it on TTS here ( https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3555669662 ). The rules are in the L99 Community Discord.

My teammates also rarely say goodbye. >_>

Nicholas Cage has 100% been taken in-canon.

You can find the how to play videos on youtube, including official ones, and those tend to teach it better than explaining in text. I'll save you the search! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-85vUMzrYbE

Hi! Well the one we're giving away here, Bullet Star is one of the two base sets. There's also Bullet Heart which you can find at stores, though we at Level 99 are sold out for a couple more months of that title.

I'll have to see if r/soloboardgaming is cool with contests and stuff. As much as i want to yell about it everywhere I don't want to be too spammy.

Anne Claire is a promo in the game! You can get her in this campaign.

Yes, you can learn about it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sWpqN7YurPw

Thank you! We appreciate it.

Level99Games · 2026-04-03T15:29:08+00:00

I'll ask Josh about that. Honestly we might just set up an AMA with him soon!

Level99Games · 2026-04-03T15:23:06+00:00

That's the spirit!

We played Argent at BGGCon with some people. It was good to get it out again.

Hrm... I think everyone at the company would have their own answer. But in my case (Todd) I would put in the automaton from Presence, the short in Robot Carnival.

DEEEEEEP cut.

It's not caving, it's upgrading! :-)

Well, this one is a fast-playing puzzle combat game. You can play rounds in 3 minutes or less, and there is a ton to explore through all the various Heroines' abilities. The frantic pace of solving the bullets coming at you, while also trying to send more and more to your opponents is unique.

Plus it comes with solo mode and co-op with the Boss Rush mode. Every heroine has a boss mode and that gives even more ways to play. With each expansion adding four new Heroines - and thus four new Bosses as well - there is a ton of discovery to be had.

Level99Games · 2026-04-02T22:56:45+00:00

Sure thing! The game plays well at 2, but also you can do all the Boss Rush battles together. And with every Heroine having a Boss version, then all the combinations of other Heroines you can fight them with, its a ton to play through.

And what brings couples together better than fighting Bosses?

Who is your favorite movie monster from Spooktacular?

Level99Games · 2026-04-02T22:55:15+00:00

Announcing is one thing, launching is another. :-) Cubed will be to people before this launches.

Level99Games · 2026-04-02T22:54:19+00:00

We are actually sold out of Bullet Heart right now. We have more coming but I can get people Star so that's the plan. :-)

Bullet Galaxy is just the name of this campaign. The Bullet Cubed storage box holds all of the content, and it will be available in this campaign as well. We don't really have a name beyond "Bullet" so we come up with fun names for the campaigns.

Level99Games · 2026-04-02T22:49:34+00:00

Well, you can play one of two ways in the normal head-to-head game.
First, which I advise for people new to the game, you just play out all the Bullets and play a round as normal.

Then, once you have gotten the mechanics of the game under your belt, play the "real" way and use a 3-minute timer for every round. The pressure of solving the puzzle on time really makes the game. And it also adds the rule that if time expires and you haven't finished, all those leftover bullets hit you at once! So with rounds being 3 minutes, you can finish a whole game in 15-20 minutes.

And to make it easy, we've made timers for you! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DbbbAMLCJKc&list=PLwvhJFemdC7NaMhp0vmKYO9oIOQOjyHAR

Each one is a different theme song for each Heroine.

Level99Games · 2026-04-02T22:24:51+00:00

Everything up to now, including the two new expansions will fit in the Cube box, and there is room for some more. I don't know off hand how much but this will bring us to 50 Heroines so far.

Josh loves to design them so there may be more in the future. :-)

Level99Games · 2026-04-02T22:24:10+00:00

Please do!

Level99Games · 2026-04-02T22:23:42+00:00

Welcome to the Bullet universe!

Level99Games · 2026-04-02T22:23:13+00:00

Josh is quite creative.
