Metal Heads

Metal Heads is a multiplayer party game where up to eight players compete in mini-games and board game modes set to metal music. Its 20 available mini-games draw on classic 3D platformers and use simple-to-learn controls with room to master them. You can play solo or gather friends for local multiplayer, including Couch vs Couch play.

Mini-games and music

The mini-games ask you to run, jump, dodge and use your memory to survive. Each has original metal music composed by Andy Gillion, with extended tracks for its alternate, survival and chaos modes.

Board game mode

In the board game mode, you spin a wheel to determine movement, then control your character as you run and jump toward your destination. Collect items, take risky shortcuts, buy items and place traps or obstacles at the shop to hinder opponents. Extensive rule-customization options let you change how the mode plays.

Boss battles

Winning a board game leads to a boss battle: the winner becomes a boss with their own skills and abilities, facing all the other players in a one-versus-all fight. The other players can use the environment or wait for an opening to defeat the boss.

Multiplayer modes

Up to eight players can play together locally, and Couch vs Couch multiplayer lets additional players join. You can also play solo; the description says bot opponents are planned, but does not specify that they are currently available.
