Where CollectR began

Pirots

How the series changed over time

The first Pirots created the bird-and-gem collection loop on a compact 5x5 grid. Pirots 2 gave the mechanic more room and added amber upgrades plus Popcorn. Pirots 3 pushed the idea into set-piece encounters with bandits and a train heist.

Pirots X switches to cluster wins and a global multiplier. Pirots 4 returns to the collection system and adds changing space worlds.

Pirots 5 links its three worlds through nine collectible Tokens. Each world contains three, and collecting all nine unlocks Boss Castle.

Collect and expand

Pirots establishes the loop; Pirots 2 gives it more room and more symbol progression.

Turn worlds into mechanics

Pirots 3 and 4 make encounters, environments and changing worlds part of the active grid.

Break, then reconnect

Pirots X experiments with clusters. Pirots 5 returns to CollectR and links several worlds through tokens.
