How it feels

A tense, stylish local multiplayer brawler where you hide in shadows and strike from light in striking black-and-white arenas.

What players say

Players love the clever split-screen stealth where you peek at opponents' screens, but many say controller support is broken and development has stopped. The game is praised as a fun quick-play couch brawler but criticized for feeling like a demo with no bots, single player, or modes beyond 2v2.
