What is Paint the Town Red?

This first-person voxel beat 'em up centers on scenario brawls in bars, prisons, discos, saloons, and other locations, where you punch, kick, and wield objects or weapons. The separate Beneath campaign uses underground roguelite runs with classes, upgrades, monsters, and bosses; arena, sandbox, and a level editor add other ways to play.

For you if...

  • +you enjoy chaotic fights against large groups
  • +you want scenarios alongside repeatable roguelite runs
  • +you plan to brawl cooperatively with friends online

Not for you if...

  • −you dislike graphic gore and destructible voxel bodies
  • −you prefer realistic combat over chaotic physics-based brawls

What players say

96% of 32,902 reviews are positive · 90% of 158 in the last 30 days

Players praise the destructible voxel combat and extensive selection of community-made levels. The most common complaint is that the official scenarios become repetitive quickly, and several players find Beneath less enjoyable than the main brawls. Some also report crashes and run-ending bugs in Beneath and multiplayer.
