Rewriting the Universe
Big changes are coming to Matchy Star™ — we’re rebuilding core systems, sharpening the fun, and expanding the Matchyverse™ with new features and characters.
Did you ever look up at the stars and wonder what’s out there? We still see the cosmos the way a kid does: endless possibilities, wild locations, and maybe even a little magic.
The Matchyverse™ is our shared universe — the same characters, locations, and lore across games, merch, and (someday) Saturday morning cartoons.
It’s a place where you can be a kid again — a universe where fun is the only rule.
