What The Clash?

What the Clash? (2025) is a collection of wacky one-versus-one minigames where you compete in absurd battles ranging from table tennis to dishwashing to cow milking. The controls are simple, but you have to grapple with wobbly physics and fast-paced carnage to gain the edge in the best-of-five rounds. It stands out for how both players select silly modifications to change every round, extending the strategy, chaos and variation of classic one-versus-one games.

A bottle is spun to decide which player chooses the game, and there are many options to pick from, including racing, archery, and tag. You then compete in a best-of-five-rounds head-to-head; the catch is you choose modifiers each round that result in ridiculous or outright impossible battles. For example, you may end up playing table tennis using long sticks and with a fan blowing across the table! In this way, it's partly about choosing modifiers wisely but also about embracing frustration and laughing at yourself when things go wrong.

As you progress, you complete objectives, such as "shoot five missiles in a level of Racing", that help increase your level. Doing so unlocks more games and modifiers to add to your collection, as well as funny outfits, like a banana costume, to show off to your friends and opponents.

The result is a game that turns silly scenarios into a competition. While winning is satisfying and rewarding, it's just as much about having a laugh regardless of your success.
