What is Chained Beasts?
Chained Beasts is a 1–4 player co-op gladiator roguelite from Featherweight Games. Each gladiator is physically chained to their teammates, turning every dodge, charge, and weapon throw into a shared movement problem. Runs span nine battles across three acts, with arena champions waiting at the end of each stretch.
Between fights, players learn skills, spend coin on weapons and equipment, earn crowd favor, and unlock new characters. Wounds persist across days in the arena, and potions can trade pain relief for new afflictions, so a strong run depends on chain discipline, careful healing, and using hazards such as urns, spike walls, and snake pits.

Chained Beasts Tier List
Rank the four co-op roles by chain stability, beginner comfort, and boss utility, then adjust for your squad size and unlocked gladiators.
Anchor — best chain stability: holds ground, calls the unwind, and keeps a tangled squad calm.
Frontliner — sets the tempo and baits boss swings, but needs a partner who will not yank the chain mid-swing.
Chaos-Maker — turns arena hazards into damage, with more risk when the formation is tight.
Quartermaster — handles coin, potions, crowd favor, and recovery; strongest across a full run rather than one fight.
