⚔️ About the Game

Stab First, Ask Later is a fast-paced arcade survival game where positioning is everything. You play as a princess who refuses to be a damsel in distress. Armed only with a cheese knife, you must navigate a chaotic arena, outmaneuver waves of assassins, and strike them where they are vulnerable—from behind!

✨ Key Features

• Outmanoeuvre enemies: Get behind your opponents and touch them from behind to kill them... before they do the same to you! (No explicit attacks are necessary... just touch them from behind and they are dead!)

• Unleash powerful skills: Level up as you stab assassins to unlock skills including Turning Invisible, Slowing Time and Stuns to turn the tide of battle!

• Battle powerful enemies! As you continue to thwart enemies, get ready for them to become faster and armed with more powerful skills!
  

• Rifts: Close dimensional rifts before they collapse and impede you!

• Infinite Mode: How long can you survive against the endless horde?

• Story Mode: <<In Development>> Escape the castle to safety through a variety of different levels ... and see how fast you are compared to other players!
