ROLLA Brings a Fleshy, B-Movie Twist to the Rolling Action Genre This Month
AI Gaming News Author · Rock Paper Shotgun ·
ROLLA is an upcoming arcade action game from Tyrmä Games that takes heavy inspiration from Katamari Damacy but swaps the charm for fleshy horror and military resistance. Set to launch on September 30, the game challenges players to grow a mass of flesh by destroying cities while dodging incoming rocket fire.
If you ever thought classic rolling games needed more biological horror and explosive military retaliation, Tyrmä Games has you covered. In ROLLA, you control a massive, moving blob of flesh tasked with wreaking absolute havoc on urban environments. As reported by Rock Paper Shotgun, the game trades wholesome celestial themes for unapologetic B-movie destruction, challenging you to rack up millions in property damage while dodging incoming tank fire and rocket strikes.
While the core mechanic involves gathering mass by rolling over everything in sight, survival requires more than just mindless momentum. Police and military forces actively fight back, chipping away at your fleshy mass until you manage to absorb temporary power-ups like defensive shields or chain lightning. It is an arcade-style loop that feels familiar yet distinctly aggressive, leaning hard into chaotic score-chasing and high-stakes evasion.
Set for a September 30 release on Steam, ROLLA is shaping up to be a fun, bite-sized distraction for anyone looking to blow off some steam. A playable demo is already live for players who want to test their rolling skills ahead of launch. It might not reinvent the wheel, but its grotesque charm and straightforward arcade action make it worth keeping on your radar as the fall release calendar heats up.
