What is Namma Benglooru?
Benglooru, whose logo reads Namma Benglooru, is a browser game set in a stylised Bengaluru. Its official press kit identifies the developer only as an indie developer based in Bengaluru. Chapter 1 covers Koramangala and launched on November 1, 2026, according to that kit.
It is separate from Namma Bengaluru, the physical tile-laying board game published by Dice Toy Labs. This guide covers the browser game, not the board game’s rules.
How to open the game
The developer directs players to benglooru.com/play on a laptop or desktop. The official site says the game is free, requires no account or installation and uses a browser; the first visit downloads game data. The developer says phones are not supported yet.
The controls page specifies a recent Chrome, Edge or Firefox browser with WebGL2. Hardware acceleration may be needed if the game cannot start. Nisu checked that the entry returned an HTML page, but did not complete a loading or compatibility test.
Starting controls and saving
According to the developer’s controls page, WASD is used to walk, ride and steer, while the mouse looks around. The same page says the controls can be changed in Settings and a controller can be used.
The developer says progress is saved in the browser on that computer and Settings can download a save file to move it. Browser storage and save-file recovery were not independently tested.
What happens in Chapter 1?
The developer describes a delivery rider in Koramangala, with eight story missions and four side stories. Its press kit also describes driving, police chases, races and odd jobs. These are developer descriptions rather than an independently verified mission walkthrough.
The road layout is based on OpenStreetMap data but condensed and simplified for the game. Other neighbourhoods are presented as future areas without promised dates; do not assume they are playable.
Testing and version limits
The publisher’s press kit calls this Chapter 1: Koramangala; it does not give a numeric game build in the fact sheet. Availability, features and device support can change.
We did not play a mission, test controls, save progress or measure performance. The cover is an original Nisu text graphic, not a game screenshot.
