One lane, one screen, no minimap
the dark is where you have no eyes
Free · no install · no account needed
A 1v1 duel down a single corridor — and now 2v2, two a side on the same lane. No download, no sign-up needed, no lobby: a bot holds every empty seat, so there is a match running the moment you arrive. Watch it, or take a seat and play it — win and the seat is yours.
the whole of the game, in three
One tower each and a wave of creeps every twenty seconds. Last-hit them for gold, spend it on nothing — there is no shop — and push. The tower falling is the whole game; kills only buy you the room to take it.
A solo mid game: twelve of the sixteen arenas are duels down the middle and four seat two a side — 2v2 MOBA, browser only. You choose the side you sit on, so two people who turn up together end up on the same team.
You see what your own units see, and a tower sees further than a champion does. Ground you walk out of stays lit for two seconds and then closes. There is no minimap because there is nothing to put on one.
hover one · every screen below is the real game
One cooldown per weapon rather than one per trigger, and switching costs a quarter of a second to raise the new gun instead of inheriting the old one's clock — so putting a spent weapon away and drawing a cool one is a real move.
watching · sitting down · the queue
Arriving does not sit you down. There is already a game running in front of you — a bot holds every seat nobody is in — and you can pick either champion by name and let the camera follow them.
Both seats ready starts it, and a clock starts it anyway if somebody has put the keyboard down. Change your mind and leave the seat — you are back to watching and the bot has it again.
The winner keeps the seat and the loser goes to the back of the queue. Your place follows you out of the room, so you can wait for arena 3 while watching the better fight in arena 9.
ranked
Claim a handle — with a passkey, your fingerprint or your face or the device in your hand, or with an email and a password if you would rather — and your duels start counting. Beat a signed-in player and you take points off them. Lose and they take yours. The bot is worth nothing, and so is a stranger who has not signed in.
The end screen tells you what the duel cost you and where you now stand. The ladder is the top hundred, and it is at most a minute old.
