About Ollsgar'd

Ollsgar'd is an indie PC game developed by Matheusntl that reimagines marbles as a high-speed, voice-controlled battle royale. Released on October 6, 2025, it’s a single-player game where you shout commands to launch marbles at opponents in chaotic, arena-style matches. The premise is absurd but addictive: players use voice recognition to "throw" marbles, dodge projectiles, and outmaneuver AI or human rivals. It’s a niche, experimental take on classic playground games, blending physical comedy with competitive reflexes. If you’ve ever wanted to turn shouting into a weapon, this is your jam.

Gameplay

Each match starts with a marble-carrying avatar in a confined arena. You yell commands like "attack" or "defend" to control actions, which feels clunky at first but sharpens as you adapt. Movement is frantic, you roll, jump, and block while hurling marbles that bounce unpredictably off surfaces. Matches last 2, 5 minutes, forcing quick decisions and aggressive play. The voice control adds a layer of chaos: misheard commands can lead to accidental suicides or missed shots. There’s no pause, no respawns, just relentless action until only one player remains. The controls demand proximity to a mic, and the AI opponents vary in skill, making each session a mix of strategy and luck.

What Players Think

PlayPile users rate Ollsgar'd 4.3/5, with 72% completing the core 12-arena campaign. Average playtime is 3.2 hours, though 22% of players report frustration over voice recognition glitches. Community moods are split: 68% excitement for the novelty, 30% irritation at technical hiccups. One review calls it "wildly creative but needs polish," while another praises the "unfiltered fun of shouting at your PC." Achievements are light, 12 total, averaging 2 hours to unlock. Critics on Metacritic (78/100) highlight its originality but question long-term replay value. Prices start at $19.99, making it a low-risk experiment for fans of quirky indie mechanics.

PlayPile's Take

Ollsgar'd is a bold, if flawed, experiment in voice-controlled gameplay. It thrives in short bursts, ideal for players craving novelty over depth. The $20 price tag fits its niche appeal, and the 12 achievements offer a modest challenge. While technical issues may deter some, the sheer absurdity of shouting to survive makes it a standout for those who enjoy experimental indie games. Not for marbles purists or those who dislike mic-dependent mechanics, but a hilarious diversion for the right crowd.
