Buy Shiner PC

Turn-based strategy meets RPG adventure in Shiner, a free-to-play PC game where you absorb enemy attacks after each victory. Begin with a basic punch and build up by defeating colorful characters, each boasting distinct personalities and move sets. Battles unfold as clever puzzles, demanding you select four attacks from your growing arsenal to counter foes that heal fully or reflect damage. Craft synergistic combinations to conquer four zones packed with these quirky rivals. A fully voice-acted cast brings every encounter to life, while One-Punch Mode eases tougher fights. This bite-sized experience wraps up in one or two hours, perfect for players who crave quick, brain-teasing strategy sessions.



Shiner is a turn-based strategy game where you learn all the attacks of the enemies you beat! Starting with only the knowledge of how to do a simple punch, can you snowball yourself into an avatar of (fuzzy) destruction?

Make friends with a cast of cute and colorful characters! Every character in the game has a unique personality and a unique set of attacks for you to learn if you can beat them. “Why would I fight my friends,” you ask? Look, relationships are complicated. Buds can horse around is all I’m saying.

Craft powerful builds! You’ll learn a ton of attacks, but you can only bring 4 of them into each fight. Can you find the right combination to beat an opponent who heals to full health every turn? What about someone who reflects all the damage you deal right back at you? Every battle is a puzzle and an opportunity for you to find a new way to break the game.
