Introduction:

You are a heroic adventurer who has just defeated a powerful and malevolent mage after a long, brutal battle, but with his dying breath, he casts a final, reality-warping curse. The world fractures, and you awaken in a vast, desolate arena of sand and stone, an ancient battlefield born of his lingering malice. The arena itself is alive, shifting and summoning relentless waves of enemies from the sands, each more dangerous than the last. Though the mage is dead, his torment endures, forcing you to fight for survival, overcome deadly traps and ancient guardians, and claim what strength you can because only by conquering the arena can you escape his final spell

Objective:

Complete all five encounters.

What you need to play

3-4 paper/slider clips (different colour or size prefered).
