Steel Ball Brawl

Nine cyborgs a side. One steel ball. A walled arena that fights back. Two 90-second halves of future contact sport — and no fouls worth the name.

Score any way that works

The goal is the obvious route. It is not the only one, and often not the fastest.

Every wall is a weapon

  • Wall stars — two points each, ten more for lighting all five. The opponent can shoot them back out.
  • Multiplier loops — throw into either loop to claim ×1.5 scoring, a second transit makes it ×2. Only one side holds it.
  • Gates and domes — teleport the ball across the halfway line, or bounce it off for points.
  • Electro bumpers — electrify your throw and it takes an opponent out of the play.

Injuring someone scores like a goal

Ten points for a goal. Ten for putting an opponent through a wall. That single rule tells you most of what you need to know about how a match is going to go.

Barge their back to strip the ball. Hit them side-on and it is a coin flip. Go head-on and you are the one on the floor — unless you are dashing, in which case you go straight through.

A squad that carries a season

Career is a league to climb and a cup to win. What happens in a match follows you into the next one.

Career

Promotion, relegation, grudges

Fourteen fixtures a season, two divisions, a cup on the side. Injuries carry between matches, so the squad you finish a season with is not the one you started it with.

Spend it on someone who hits harder

Sign star cyborgs out of the transfer market, train attributes in the gym, bolt on armour you picked up mid-match, and patch up the ones who did not walk off under their own power.

Free, and honest about it

The whole game is free, and career includes one full competition — a league season, a cup, or a knockout.

A single one-time purchase opens every competition after that. There are no adverts, no currency to buy, and nothing that makes a paying player harder to beat. Matches against the AI, practice, local two-player and online play are free, always.
