Introduction

Mojo Melee is a strategic auto chess battler set in the Planet Mojo universe, where players draft, position, and battle teams of magical creatures in competitive PvP matches. Developed by Mystic Moose, this free-to-play title supports cross-platform play on mobile and browser, offering 1v1 Duel and 8v8 Melee modes, with a focus on team-building and tactical progression through ranked seasons and BattlePasses.

Lore

Mojo Melee is set on Planet Mojo, a mysterious alien world struck by a strange object that unleashed the Scourge, a techno-virus transforming organic life. Clans send Champions to investigate, discovering ancient, powerful beings called Ancients who awaken and share a prophecy to protect the Mojos, magical defenders of the planet. Players lead teams of Champions and Mojos to battle the Scourge’s threat, forming alliances amidst an evolving narrative. 

Gameplay

Players in Mojo Melee aim to outlast opponents by building and upgrading teams of Mojos, Champions, and SpellStones in round-based auto battles, classified as a strategic auto chess battler rather than an action RPG. Mechanics involve drafting units with gold, positioning them on a grid during preparation phases, and watching them auto-fight, with special abilities activating as units gain energy from combat.

Modes include Duel (1v1, best of 5 rounds) and Melee (8 players, qualifiers to finals), where strategy hinges on team composition and SpellStone placement. Progression includes ranking up through Trophies, unlocking team slots, and customizing units via the Mojo Maker system.

• SpellStones offer tactical buffs, debuffs, or area effects during battles.
• Duel mode allows adapting to opponents’ strategies over multiple rounds.
• Mojo Maker lets players design Mojos with costumes and gear.
