Unblocked Fighting Games

Fighting games are one-on-one tests of timing. Stick War: Infinity Duel and Stick Duel: Shadow Fight are stickman duels, Boxing Stars and the Drunken Boxing games put you in the ring, Ragdoll Fighter and Ragdoll Duel: Boxing let physics decide who stays standing, and Shadow Ninja Revenge and Shadow Fighters: Hero Duel bring martial arts and super powers.

Stickman duels

The Stick Duel series carries the stickman side of the category. Stick Duel: The War, Stick Duel: Battle Hero and Stick Duel Battle are first-to-five matches on small arenas full of weapons to pick up, and Stick Duel: Revenge stretches the same idea across 50 levels with flying shoes and fire pools to avoid. Super Stickman Fight sends one fighter through level after level and lets you spend the stars you collect on swords, axes and hammers, while Stickman Hero Fight adds blocking, teleporting and transformations that change how you fight.

Boxing, karate and wrestling

Boxing Random gives each player one button and changes the rules every round, from long arms to an icy floor. Karate Bros is about spacing: when to step in and when to strike. Oil Wrestling comes down to three lunges and reading your opponent, while Wrestle Bros, Funny Ragdoll Wrestlers and Drunken Wrestle hand the outcome to ragdoll physics, so knocking someone off balance matters as much as landing a hit.

Beat 'em ups and brawlers

If you would rather take on a crowd, Street Mayhem - Beat 'Em Up, Samurai vs Yakuza Beat Em Up and Gang Brawlers send you through stage after stage of enemies, Brawlhalla Grand Slam drops eight fighters into one vertical arena, and Crazy Office: Slap and Smash! turns an office building into slapstick chaos. Extreme Thumb Wars is the odd one out: a thumb war with more than twenty characters and a power bar.

More than half of these unblocked fighting games can be played by two people on one keyboard, so they double as a quick duel with a friend; the 2 player games have more of them. Most use the keyboard and play best on a computer or Chromebook. Hunter Assassin 2 and Squid Game Fighter are good picks for a first round, and when one opponent is not enough, the war games are the next step up.
