Beat 'em up / Brawler
Description
Beat 'em ups - also known as Brawlers - focus on melee combat with a large number of antagonists. Usually players can perform a wide variety of combat moves and combos to hurt the opponents. These games are usually divided into levels similar to platform games or action games. Beat ‘em ups are not to be confused with Fighting games which offer balanced arena fights between equally balanced teams or single characters.| Viewing Page 1 of 25 | (items 1-25 of 601) | Next |
