COUCH VERSUS

About the game

A closer look.

COUCH VERSUS is a unique 2 players asymmetric versus game where players can be both the HERO and MONSTERS competing for victory. Before the start of the match, the HERO player closes his/her eyes while the MONSTERS player devises a plan by hiding 4 portals on the map and choosing 4 monsters to spawn during the match. When the match starts the HERO player opens his/her eyes and the MONSTERS player can use the shoulder-buttons to open and close the portals and the face buttons to spawn the monster assigned to the specific button in real-time. (the number of monsters on screen at the same time is limited) The HERO player can jump around and shoot the monsters trying to figure out an opening in the MONSTERS plan. The game really shines when both players know how the other thinks. MODES 1-Versus Mode: Control either the HERO or MONSTERS competing in a best of 3, 5 or 7 rounds.
