Cult of PiN launches roguelike pinball runs

Cult of PiN launched August 10 as a roguelike built around full pinball tables rather than a pinball-themed combat board. Players damage bumpers, complete missions and use controlled ramp or trick shots to shape each run.

Cult of PiN: confirmed details

The launch version includes four tables, six difficulty settings, 100 Glyph upgrades, 16 bumper types, eight balls and eight table traits. A structured run reaches Act VI before continuing into an endless mode, with monthly and all-time leaderboards tracking results.

What changes for players

A large Glyph pool gives repeat runs different scoring and survival priorities, while table traits alter the physical space those builds must solve. Competitive boards reward consistency, but the endless option also gives strong combinations room to keep scaling.

Timing and wider context

The figures above come from the official store listing. They describe available systems rather than the probability of seeing any specific Glyph or the difficulty of reaching the final structured act.

The feature list and timing above reflect the developer’s announcement published on August 10, 2026. Future hotfixes can adjust balance or availability, so live values should be checked against the current client.

For Cult of PiN, the practical checkpoint is the live client: confirm the installed version, platform notes and regional rollout before relying on a scheduled feature. Store availability, maintenance windows and certification can create timing differences even when the developer announces one date for the wider release.
