Capitol Crashers

Two fighters. A block that needs them. The Landlord at the end of the street. Feed the hungry, treat the sick, freeze the rent, and keep the witness standing all the way to the Capitol.

Step in

Mamdani and El-Sayed square up on a rainy street in front of the Capitol.

How it plays

Nobody on the block gets hit

The people in need stand along the street. The strike button helps them. The villains still swing, and they still go down.

01

Help the neighbors

Walk up to anyone with a need bubble and press J. A meal, care, a RENT FROZEN notice on their building, a good job. They light up and head home.

02

Stop the machine

Cruz and Greene roam the streets; a boss waits at the end of each one. Light, heavy, special, grab, throw. Pick up a pipe or a bottle. Double-tap to run or back off.

03

Keep the witness standing

Help the witness and she follows you with a folder of receipts. Get her to the boss on her feet and the boss starts a third down.

The streets

Four fights, four policies

Win the street and the policy passes on the block: the banner goes up, the eaves ice over, the neighbors come out, and the comic picks up the story.

Capitol Crashers is a cartoon satire. The bosses are caricatures of public officials and their policies; nobody gets hurt, they just get knocked down.
