Welcome to PunchMan Online play guide. Any details of the game are available below.
This mode divides players into the red and blue teams. If the players' numbers on each team don't match, AI will automatically add to the team with smaller players' numbers.
Team battle's rule is pretty simple. Within the time limit, collect medals as much as you can by knocking another team's player out of the stage or destroying spawned crates. Collected medals are indicated by a bar on the top center of the screen. The team who filled up the bar first or collected more medals when the time limit was reached won.
Be careful; being knocked out off the stage will also reduce your team's medals!
As the word means, you'll play as a solo player trying to become the last one standing. You'll get three lives; one will be reduced each time you're knocked out of the stage. Stay alive, knock your opponents out of the stage, and you'll be the victor.
This game mode is similar to Team Battle mode, except for how the points are counted. It won't affect the game whether you or your opponents are knocked out of the stage. You'll need to destroy opponents' crystals as fast as possible while keeping your crystals alive. The team who destroyed all opponent's crystals first won.
Before starting or joining a battle, you need to visit the lobby first. The lobby provides information about all available rooms and online players' numbers and statuses. You can also create your room or join any available random match. Also, you can chat with other online players there.
Within the lobby, you can join a random match anytime by pressing the random match button on top of the screen. The random match is a feature that allows the apps to decide which game mode and stages will be used.
Also, the random match will match you with any random player who's also applying for it.
A room can be created from the menu in the lobby. You can decide which game mode, stage, and the maximum number of players can join the game. Once the room is created, you and any other players who joined the room can freely chat while waiting for the remaining players. You can also adjust, change team assignments, and kick unintended players there.
You can start the game even if it hasn't matched the maximum player numbers when everyone in the room is ready.
