Play it if you…
Good fit- Players who enjoy constructing custom battle machines rather than using fixed characters

Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a story campaign or a broader progression structure may find the arena-based battles limited in scope

- Players who prefer realistic simulation or large-scale strategy may not find the top-battling format suitable
Our take on Battle Tops
Instead of centering a fixed roster of fighters, the game makes construction the main event: battles begin with player-assembled spinning tops built from a large pool of parts, materials, and statistics.
What is Battle Tops?
Battle Tops is a game about building and fighting customizable spinning tops.
Players can assemble tops from 271 parts and choose among 119 materials, with different part statistics affecting their designs. The game offers more than 16 million possible part combinations, a random-combination option, and 31 arenas. Match settings can be adjusted for individual battles, while a sandbox area provides a place to test designs. Battles can involve randomly generated tops, friends, or Twitch viewers through Twitch integration. Multiplayer with viewers requires streaming the game on Twitch and uses a third party. The game is marked as paused in development.
