F.L.A.W. is a free top-down wizard battle game that can be played by up to 5 players. The goal of the game is to survive as long as possible while more and more fireballs appear in the arena.

Gameplay is simple and self-explanatory: While the players try to avoid the fireballs, they can knock each other down. In addition there are collectable magic gems that provide special abilities. The game can be played as a single player game against the computer, but it is more fun with 2 and more human players.
