God of War's Chained Blades — as the Whole Game
Chainbreaker is a physics flick-combat arena brawler. Your only weapons are two god-forged chains that exist as real physics ropes: swipe fast to whip, press and drag to wrap, pull sharply to yank, tap to slingshot, and circle to sweep. The arena answers with cel-shaded anime spectacle and ragdoll comedy — the physics writes the jokes, and a triple kill, a boss phase finish, or an SS rank replays as an automatic clip on the results screen. Fight up through five sanctums of the dead pantheon of Kaldera to break the Titan's bindings.
What it is:
- The chain is the protagonist — a simulated rope with mass hitting simulated bodies with mass; the outcome is emergent every time
- One thumb-sheet of verbs — whip, wrap, yank, sweep, slingshot, dash, lane-shift
- 2.5D arenas with three combat lanes and a style meter that ranks D → SS and pays out embers
- The environment is the ammo — spikes, braziers, swinging cages, and levers do the real damage
- Cel-shaded anime motion — smear-frame chains, hit-stop on every impact, ragdoll comedy; the screen is never still
- Local-first — no account, no login; your progress lives on the phone
How It Works
⛓️ Every Gesture Is a Physics Rope
Swipe fast for a whip strike, press and drag to steer the tip and wrap a target, pull sharply to yank it, tap while wrapped to slingshot along the rope, and circle to sweep a crowd. The rope has mass — the outcome is emergent, slapstick, and different every time.
🏛️ The Environment Is the Ammo
Arenas are built from hazards: spikes, ring-out ledges, swinging cages, braziers and fire pools, crushers and levers, pillars, and lightning rods. Hazards hurt enemies three times faster than they hurt you. The chain is a manipulation tool first, a damage hose second.
💥 Style Ranks D → SS
Chain your verbs and never repeat yourself: variety keeps the style meter climbing from D to a screaming SS. Style multiplies your ember payout, and an S rank or better posts to the biome leaderboard — playing stylishly is the economy.
🎬 Clips the Physics Writes for You
A triple kill, a boss phase finish, or an SS rank marks the moment. The game re-simulates the last 8 seconds from its input log into a clip with a slow-mo kill and a rank stamp, and the results screen plays it back — replay-based capture, so it costs nothing during play.
⚔️ Five Sanctums, Five Relics
Break up through five biomes of Kaldera — the Emberdeep Foundry, the Colosseum of Pale Moons, the Storm-Temple of Okeros, the Sunken Pits of Thalvessa, and the Titanfall Ossuary — each with a boss that is a chain-interaction puzzle wearing a spectacle costume. Unlock five relic chain-heads with Godsparks earned from boss kills, each with its own wrap behavior.
🔒 Local-First & On-Device
No account, no login. Your progress, relics, and cosmetics live on your device, and runs are deterministic on-device physics. Data leaves the phone only for purchases (handled by the App Store or Google Play), the optional leaderboards (an anonymous device id, a display name, and your score), and Invite a friend.

What is Chainbreaker?
Chainbreaker is a physics flick-combat arena brawler for iOS and Android from Adelyons Software LLC. Your only weapons are two god-forged chains simulated as real physics ropes: swipe fast to whip, press and drag to wrap, pull sharply to yank, tap to slingshot, and circle to sweep across cel-shaded 2.5D arenas.
The game is single-player and local-first — there is no account and no login, and no network connection is needed to play. You fight up through five sanctums of the dead pantheon of Kaldera, each with a boss and a relic chain-head that rewrites how the rope behaves.
Frequently asked questions
What platforms is Chainbreaker available on?
Chainbreaker is available on iOS through the App Store and on Android through Google Play.
Is Chainbreaker free to play?
Chainbreaker is free to download, and the complete first biome — the Emberdeep Foundry, its six arenas, its miniboss and boss, circuit mode with Edicts, and the daily challenge — is free forever. The Full Circuit all-access unlock is $9.99 once.
Does Chainbreaker have subscriptions or sell in-game currency?
No. Every purchase in Chainbreaker is a one-time, non-consumable unlock, nothing auto-renews, and there are no subscriptions of any kind. In-game currency — embers and Godsparks — is never sold and can only be earned by playing.
Does Chainbreaker have ads?
No. Chainbreaker has no ads of any kind: no banners, no interstitials, and no rewarded videos.
Can you play Chainbreaker offline?
Yes. The physics, the style meter, enemy behavior, and the clip re-simulation all run on your device, so no network connection is required to play. A connection is used only for optional purchases and the online leaderboards.
Does Chainbreaker require an account or collect personal data?
No. Chainbreaker has no account and no login, so there is nothing to sign up for. Progress, relics, currency, cosmetics, and settings are stored only on your device, and the game uses no third-party analytics, no advertising identifier, and no cross-app tracking. The optional leaderboards receive an anonymous device id, the display name you choose, and your score.
Is Chainbreaker suitable for kids?
Chainbreaker is made for teens and adults. The violence is stylized cartoon physics comedy with no blood and no gore — enemies burst into embers, sparks, and shards — and the game is intended for a teen and adult audience rather than young children.
How do I delete my Chainbreaker data?
Clear the app's data from your device settings, or uninstall the app to permanently remove everything stored locally. There is no account to close; leaderboard scores are stored only under an anonymous device id and display name, and you can email dev@adelyons.com about removing them.
