🥊Gang Beasts

## Set it up - Install via Steam; host a Custom match and pick a stage, or queue Free-for-All/Team modes if you want randoms mixed in - The controls are deliberately terrible — don't waste time hunting for a better keybind, that stiffness is the entire joke - Turn on a voice call before you start; half the comedy is reacting live to someone getting thrown into a meat grinder

## Your first session - Pick a simple stage first (the boxing ring or the truck bed) before a hazard-heavy one like the ferris wheel or the pier - Learn grab (hold the trigger) before anything else — nearly every kill in this game is a grab into an environmental hazard - Don't bother with technique; grabbing whoever's closest and shoving them toward the nearest edge wins more than any strategy

## Group size advice - Scales up to 8 for genuine free-for-all mayhem, though hazard stages get harder to read that crowded - 2-4 keeps fights readable while still delivering the physics comedy - A perfect five-minute warm-up game before something that actually requires focus
