About Midway Malarkey
Midway Malarkey is an arena survival shooter dressed up as a hand-painted 1930s cartoon. Mischievous rascals stream out of the carnival tents, and your arsenal – trumpets, rolling pins, anvils that drop from the sky and crackling tesla coils – fires all by itself while you focus on staying alive.
Pick up tickets, cash them in at the Prize Booth between waves and merge weapons into stronger versions. You can play the never-ending Endless Show, a 15-wave Grand Tour campaign or a fresh Daily Show with its own twist. Six heroes, boss fights against the Ringmaster and his crew, carnival attractions and swing-era music make the whole show feel lively.
How to Play Midway Malarkey
Move with WASD, ZQSD or the arrow keys; touch players steer by dragging a finger across the left half of the screen.
Press Space to dash out of danger.
Your weapons aim and shoot automatically, so concentrate on movement and collecting tickets.
Pause with Esc or P.
