NEW DEMO - Be a broke gladiator who gambles for their gear in roguelike Slots & Slaughter
Today, indie developer Laser Castle and publisher Indieformer announced that the demo for the upcoming roguelike deckbuilder Slots & Slaughter is now live for PC via Steam. Starting from humble beginnings as a penniless gladiator, you’ll slay the competition and earn your freedom yet!
One small catch: everything you fight with is locked away inside a slot machine, and the arena expects a fight for the history books. Survive the season, and you can hang up your sandals.
Roll the die to see who swings first. Over nine in-game weeks, you’ll clash with some of the fiercest combatants in the arena, culminating in a boss fight. To survive to the end, you’ll need to equip the best gear by playing the slot machine and pushing your luck. The first pull is free, but each subsequent gamble will cost you double! Once you’re cashed up, you can spend gold at the Merchant to grab better gear, or patch up from yesterday’s bout at the Sanitarium.

Slots & Slaughter Demo Key Features
Your gear is your deck: Win lifesaving/ending gear live within the slot machine. It decides which ones you get with each pull.
First one is on the house: Your first reroll is free, but each subsequent pull will cost you double.
Luck decides first blood: Roll a d20 to determine who swings first, then you’ll watch as your fight plays out on its own.
A nine-week season: Try to survive through nine in-game weeks against other combatants to earn your freedom or die as a legend.
Break free with a boss fight: At the end of each season, a big bad boss stands between you and glory, including Dopaminotaur, Cactus Maximus, and Sir Clank-a-lot.
Between bouts: Patch up at the Sanitarium and restock at the Merchant.
Slots & Slaughter’s demo is available on PC via Steam. The full game includes 50+ items (including legendary items), 8+ boss types, additional difficulty settings, and an endless mode. Wishlist now to get future updates.
