Fighting games are, by their nature, competitive. They're built for player versus player combat. This, for millions of fighting game enthusiasts, is central to their appeal.

Well would you look at that; the new video team's only been together a week and already there are fights breaking out.

If Unmechanical Extended is home to secrets, then it keeps them well. You play as a stocky robot with pin-light eyes, useless arms, a lantern jaw and a propeller just powerful enough to carry his weight through the air. Together you're lost in a weird, underground world, a warren of caves and control rooms, equal parts natural and mechanized. Deep underground lakes open into futuristic test chambers. Rocks and blobs of pulsing plant matter share space with complicated pipes, oversized cogs, light bulbs and bits of scattered masonry. The walls in one area, near the heart of the place, bleed and throb, as if you're hurtling through someone's arteries - but none of the strangeness is explained. If and when you finally emerge, your reward is mere familiarity with the place, not understanding.
