We've received numerous questions over the past few days regarding Patchkins Party, so we compiled an easy-to-digest FAQ for you!
What is Patchkins?
Patchkins is a multiplayer racing game for 2–4 players where the track evolves during the match. Players draw objects, place them on the map, and race to the finish while avoiding traps and outplaying their friends.
Who is developing Patchkins?
Patchkins is developed by Lavega Games, an independent studio focused on game and software development.
What other games has Lavega Games made?
Lavega Games has previously released several mobile titles, including:
Cyber Cyball: Stick Blast

The studio is now expanding into PC game development with new projects such as Patchkins.
How many players can play Patchkins? Is there a single-player mode?
Patchkins is designed as a multiplayer experience for 2 to 4 players. The gameplay focuses on competitive matches where players race and interact with each other.
Does Patchkins support local and online multiplayer?
Yes. Patchkins can be played locally with friends or online through a local host connection.
How does the gameplay work?
Each match is played in rounds. Players first analyze the map, then enter a drawing phase where they sketch objects. Once objects are placed on the track, the race begins, and players try to reach the finish line without dying.
What is the drawing phase?
During the drawing phase, players use a gesture system to sketch objects within a limited time. If the drawing is successful, the player receives that object and can place it on the map.
What happens if I fail the drawing?
If the drawing is not completed within the time limit, the player continues the round without receiving an object.
What kinds of objects can players place?
Objects are divided into three categories:
Platforms – help players move across the map
Obstacles – make the track more dangerous for opponents
Special objects – unique items with special effects
Do objects stay on the map permanently?
Objects placed during rounds remain on the map for the rest of the match, allowing the course to evolve.
How do players win a round?
Players win the round by reaching the finish line without dying.
How does the scoring system work?
Patchkins includes several scoring types that reward different situations during the match.
What happens if everyone finishes the round?
If all players reach the finish line successfully, no finish points are awarded. Only the Best Drawing score is given.
How is the overall winner decided?
Points accumulate across rounds. The player with the most points at the end wins the match.
What happens if there is a tie?
Tied players enter a tie-break round where the first player to reach the finish line wins the match.
Will more content be added to the game?
The object pool and gameplay features are planned to expand as development continues.
Where can players follow updates or contact the team?
Players will be able to follow updates, share feedback, and interact with the community through the official Patchkins Steam page, Discord server, and other social platforms.
