Multiplayer games may be super popular right now, but not all of them are created equal. Sometimes, they're just too similar. In the case of Death Stair, however, you've likely never played a game quite like it before.

Players assume one of two roles - someone at the top of the stairs or at the bottom. The people at the bottom must race to the top successfully. In order to prevent this, the person up top must throw down all manner of obstacles to stop them (beach balls, land mines, etc).

Death Stair works in both local and online modes, and can be had for the launch week price of $9.59 on Steam.
