Overview
Bean in a Ball Pit is a single-player, first-person physics playground from developer and publisher Mees. A handful of little beans are hiding at the bottom of a very big ball pit, and your job is to find them all. The premise sounds simple, but the route there is where things get delightfully out of hand. Released on November 11, 2026, the game sits somewhere between casual digging, incremental progression, and light strategy.
Highlights
- Every ball you sink into the collection hole earns a dollar, and rare gold and rainbow balls pay out at 5x and 25x, turning the pile into a steady income stream.
- An old computer tucked into the pit's wall sells upgrades such as a second hand, a longer reach, a bucket that scoops eight balls at a time, and a laptop so you never have to walk back.
- The store page lists Steam Achievements, camera comfort options, and custom volume controls, with interface support for English, French, German, Spanish, Japanese, Portuguese - Brazil, Russian, and Simplified Chinese.
Who It's For
This one should appeal to players who enjoy physics sandboxes, incremental loops, and the odd satisfaction of watching a chaotic pile slowly become manageable. If you like the idea of earning money by throwing balls and reinvesting it into tools that clear the way faster, the loop here is built around exactly that. The roguelite and strategy tags suggest a run-based structure layered over the digging, though the store description keeps the focus on hands-on physics play.
