Gameplay

Players take the role of the last surviving warriors in a post-apocalyptic world.

They are fighting in an arcade-style fighting arena where they have to kill their opponents to score points.

Each player has two main ways of killing their opponents: the bow and the stomp.

They can also jump on each other in the retro-platformer style.

Power-ups

There are several power-ups that can be found in the game: the life-saver, the armor-piercing, the thunderous jump, the jump-in, the wall-breaker, the time-killer and the rocket launcher.

Single-player mode

Players can also play Single-Player mode. In this mode, they have to kill waves of enemies on the arena.
