How a round works
Step
When a round starts, all players stand on the arena floor. Sections of the floor break apart over time, shrinking the space you have to work with. If you fall off the edge or get knocked into the gap, you are out. The very last player still standing claims the victory.
- Watch your edges standing near the rim makes it easy for another player to bump you off.
- Track other players know who is close to you and who is about to lose their footing.
- Stay on your feet the win condition is purely survival, so every decision should protect your position first.
Weapons and wildcards

- Wildcards alter the arena floor or environment in ways that affect everyone.
- Weapon merging combining weapons produces different stats and effects.
