About the Game

Better Off Tread is a nonstop arena combat game in which teams of players square off against each other using a collection of unusual – and often comical – armored vehicles. Colorful and full of action, Better Off Tread trades in yet more brown military combat for a whole lot of BOOM. Up to twelve players can split into teams to blast the treads off their opponents in a variety of exotic locales. A common formula, to be sure, but Better Off Tread remembers to put the ‘fun’ in ‘conflagration’. Some of you may notice that there is no ‘fun’ in ‘conflagration’.

You’re right—that’s why we’re putting it there.
