Are you a real hero? Are you the strongest, the biggest, the meanest, the one who can surpass every obstacle and flatten all the competition? This is your chance to prove it! The path is long, many enemies stand in your path. But all obstacles only serve to make you stronger! Charge straight into your enemies, punch them in their dumb faces and watch your muscles swell with new power. Keep going, keep punching, keep winning, keep growing, until you reach the Boss, the King, at the end of the level… he's the strongest of them all, to be able to beat him you'll need to have beaten all who came before him. You'll only get one shot, can you knock the crown from his head? Are boxing gloves too basic? Do you want to throw those fists with some style? Customize your fighter! Go brutal and decorate your mighty fists with the skulls of your enemies. Get funny and wear beachballs as boxing gloves. Customize your character, stride into battle wearing a viking helmet or a classic cowboys hat, or anything you want! Use your unique look to strike fear into the enemy. Your enemies grow fearful of your power, your might and your muscles. They build traps to stop you, lay out poisoned food, and send their mightiest to stop you at your weakest. Use your brain! You must avoid these obstacles to reach victory. Don't be fooled by the cake, it's poison! Features: • Easy Action Packed Gameplay, run forward and K.O. anyone in the way! • High Variety of Enemies and Traps, a test of both strength and skill! • 100's of Customization Options, create your unique fighter! • Collect Power Ups on Your Journey, become superhuman!
