How to play Basement Rules

Win two rounds to win the night; seven nights make a run. Jabs are fast, hooks hit hard, uppercuts punish a ducking or recovering opponent, and kicks reach furthest. Blocking takes only a little damage, and ducking makes jabs and hooks miss. Every attack costs stamina, so pace yourself. Jab, jab, hook lands a combo for extra damage. Knocked down? Mash any attack to get up before the count of ten. Three knockdowns in a round is a knockout.
