Meteorfall: Rustbowl Rumble – Card Game Review
Meteorfall: Rustbowl Rumble is a Card/Strategy game from Eric Farraro, first launched in 18th June 2025.
It’s rated 9+ and currently has 28+ ratings on the App Store.
What Makes Meteorfall: Rustbowl Rumble Stand Out
Play cards, maneuver your allies, and brawl in fast-paced battles.
Welcome to the Rustbowl Rumble – the great tournament in all of Meteorfall – where the likes of sozzled bearbearians and nuke-addled snotwolves battle it out for a chance to win the legendary Mask of the Uberlich. Win over legions of fans and help fill Bramble’s pockets as he seeks to rebuild his once-mighty arena.
Winning the Rustbowl Rumble isn't about fighting fair – it's about winning. The crowd demands spectacle! Take advantage of Wild Cards to change the rules of the brawl, exploiting them to your advantage.
- Mix-and-match multiple upgrades on a single card to build overpowered combos
- Impress the crowd and power-up in battle by completing challenging feats
- Build your dream team of 3 heroes (from a pool of 8), each with their own unique set of cards
- Discover more than 200 cards to turn the tides of battle in your favor
Between bouts in the arena, you'll take a break in Bramble Town, where you'll have an opportunity to upgrade your cards, train your heroes, or just enjoy the sights. There's not enough time between brawls to do it all, so you'll have to make critical decisions about which vendors you want to visit.
This Card game offers engaging gameplay and regular updates for mobile players.

Community Insight:
Might be a bit too hard to understand how to play, but the world is beautiful.
Another solid game from Slothwerks. If youve liked their previous games, especially Krumits Tale, youll likely enjoy this. Same great artwork, voices, and an enjoyable card battler. Works great on our M4 Mac Mini and iPad. Two thumbs up for the developer.
Loved Krumits Tale and Meteorfall and really wanted to get into this one too, but the font on the cards is just too small for a phone screen. Please fix this so we can get back enjoying the games you put out.
Fun game but mid battle it will zoom in to show the details of one brawler and the screen just gets stuck there. Have to kill the app and restart the battle. Very frustrating and makes us not want to play.
This was a super fun deck builder with a lot of strategy. There are 8 different characters each with unique strengths, and you build a team of 3 to take advantage of their strengths. Each character has their own pool of cards. There are many difficulty levels to choose from, with the hardest being very challenging but still winnable with many different teams. The graphics look great, the game runs perfectly smooth. There are a few minor bugs, but those dont distract too much from the gameplay. Love this game.
This guy always delivers! These games are always fun. If we could change one thing, it would just be to have even more characters.
Rustbowl Rumble is a fast, fun deck-building battler that fans of games like Monster Train will love. Its charming, Meteorfall-style art and addictive gameplay make it one of those just one more run games that keep you hooked way past bedtime. If youre into deck-building roguelites, this ones a must-play.
The first Meteorfall is brilliant. The second we could see that its great but it never really clicked for us. This, however is even better than one and two combined. Its really fantastic.
Ive been playing Erics games since meteor fall and this game is different but really good! We had it in steam but now its on mobile. We love the character design and returning characters like bramble.
Fun game, but frustrating when the game crashes while youre in the middle of a fight and have to restart the fight from the beginning. Hopefully the crashes get fixed.
Ive had quite a few crashes and times where the game stalls out forcing us to leave the app to restart the battle. The combat ui preview needs work too, it doesnt show a lot of important information well and bugs out often. The gameplay is great though once they fix these launch issues.
Get this game. Its so much fun! Love the card battling and roguelike style. Characters have great design.
