GameTech: Fall Guys provides slapstick fun for a fine battle royale
Fall Guys puts the joy back in joystick. 

Some games find success, then fall away. That’s not going to happen with Fall Guys, which has become a sensation since dropping into our lives just a few weeks ago. Although Fall Guys likely won’t reach the consistent heights of Fortnite, it has matched Epic’s juggernaut for livestream figures since it launched.

So how about we drop some information? Fall Guys is a battle royale game with a twist. Instead of competing with guns, you compete over a series of mini-games. A bit like Takeshi’s Castle, the cult TV show from Japan, Fall Guys combines skill, slapstick humour and random chance into a hugely entertaining experience that is perfect for the times we live in.
