As hard as it may be to believe, the premise of Clone Drone in the Danger Zone is summed up in its title. As Clone Drone in the Danger Zone begins, you are a human. Your brain is uploaded into a voxel destructable robot (the titular Clone Drone), and you are transported to an arena (the Danger Zone). You are given a sword (and sometimes a bow) to fight other voxel robots. It is a shower of pixellated gore, including full dismemberment. You also earn upgrades in order to enact even more carnage in later rounds as commentators crow about your prowess at murder.

The neat thing about this title are the number of game modes available. In PVP there’s the typical battle royale, but with the single player mode there’s a story campaign, fun challenges, as well as Twitch integration where your viewers can spawn in robots and such to try to get you killed. Fun for the whole family!
