The game's story mode, known as the "tournament of doom," features a humorous narrative about becoming a king in a land where revival magic is common, complemented by a bard narrator's bawdy humor. Players navigate through eight levels, each with five opponents, across various themed arenas, while facing increasing challenges and unlocking additional game modes. Overall, the story is engaging and provides a fun backdrop for the gameplay experience.
- “Either way, the slow down helped me survive long enough for my cheap tactics to win, which got me through the faster difficulties of the story mode. It has a decent story about becoming the king in a land where revival magic is apparently super easy, plus some bawdy humor from the bard narrator.”
- “The game offers three game modes: story, survival (unlocked by beating story on insane, which is not that hard but can be annoying when you face AI with 'turtle-like' behavior) and local multiplayer, along with plenty of fun options to choose from.”
- “Story mode offers a series of eight levels with five opponents each, featuring plenty of neat arenas such as deserts (both hot and cold), taverns, dungeons, castle gardens, and even an empty colosseum.”
- “Either way, the slowdown helped me survive long enough for my cheap tactics to win, which got me through the faster difficulties of the story mode (which has a decent story about becoming the king in a land where revival magic is apparently super easy, plus some bawdy humor from the bard narrator) and after about a hundred tries the final fifty.”
- “The game offers three game modes: story, survival (unlocked by beating story on insane, which is not that hard but can be annoying when you face AI with 'turtle-like' behavior) and local multiplayer, plus plenty of fun options to choose from such as playing speed, the ability to switch the regular claymores for Star Wars' lightsabers, and even a much-welcome first-person view.”
- “Story mode offers a series of eight levels with five opponents each (got killed by the last one, though? Back to the first) with plenty of neat arenas such as deserts (both hot and cold), taverns, dungeons, castle gardens, and even an (empty) colosseum.”

- “I found the soundtrack to be uninspired and forgettable, which really detracted from the overall experience.”
