About A Gentlemen's Dispute
A Gentlemen’s Dispute is a chaotic multiplayer brawler in which up to eight players compete to be the last gentleman standing. Players fling traps, swing bats, and set off explosives in arenas that crumble around them, all while keeping a tongue-in-cheek sense of class.
The game blends action, casual play, and strategic card choices. Between rounds you pick perks that alter your abilities, and shifting hazards such as sharks and speeding trains keep every bout unpredictable.
01 / THE GUIDE
Game Concept
Polite mayhem defines the core loop: players battle with an eclectic arsenal until only one remains. The tone emphasizes refined chaos, presenting over-the-top violence with gentlemanly flair.
Rounds are self-contained bouts in which the arena can collapse, and the victor claims the title of the sole gentleman. The description stresses that anything goes, so long as it is done with class.
- Embrace the chaos—use the environment to your advantage.
- Focus on outlasting opponents rather than simply dealing the most damage.

Weapons & Perks
Players arm themselves with a range of “utterly improper weaponry,” including bats, bazookas, flamethrowers, cannons, and bombs, offering many ways to cause carnage.
Between rounds, you select ludicrous perks—cards that sharpen your skills and raise the level of chaos. The right card can make all the difference in the next bout.
- Try different weapon combinations to find a playstyle that suits you.
- Pick perks that complement your favorite weapons for greater impact.
