What is BattleClaws?

BattleClaws is a competitive, suspenseful PVP game that pits 2-4 players against each other in short bursts of timed gameplay. Each round, the lowest scoring player is eliminated until there is a victor.

Tension and rivalry is created by limiting the length of each round, making all players' scores visible throughout gameplay and by giving players the chance to shake things up by dropping a special collectable in any dropzone and triggering a random effect. You can even sabotage other plays by knocking their collectables from their hands, but be careful! Knocked collectables are worth double points.

Every mechanic is designed to increase competition and interaction between players, and this in turn increases the amount of tension and suspense.
