MORDHAU

MORDHAU is a hack-n-slash game where the main battles take place on servers online. Alone, you can train your skills against artificial intelligence, and the tutorial mode explains the mechanics and gives you starting money. The control is based on the direction of the blow, which allows you to deceive the enemy and knock the weapon out of their hands. Experienced players distinguish a feint from a real attack by movement. The name refers to a special German weapon grip that is also available in the game. The main feature is a fencing system that is close to reality: the developers consulted with experts in historical combat. Battles are divided by scale: duels for one, battles of small groups and sieges with ladders and battering rams. Sometimes you come across maps with traps and controlled vehicles. Changing the sides of the blow, alternative grips, shooting with bows and crossbows, working with shields and fighting with fists form a set of medieval techniques. A mistake in defense costs lives, and a dense crowd rarely allows you to swing in peace. Leveling up unlocks equipment and cosmetics, and gold is awarded for participating in matches and training. Historical weapon sets delight fans of reconstruction. There are several modes: sieges, mass battles, duels and battles for points. Leveling up unlocks new equipment, and the community supports the project with mods and its own servers. Individual servers live by their own rules, including role-playing scenarios and dueling tournaments. For those players who like honest medieval hacking, this arena is suitable.
