About this game

TouchArcade - 4.5/5 "game with depth well beyond what you would expect"
PocketGamer - 9/10 "A brilliantly paced, sharp-edged brawler "

One of the best hack and slash games on mobile, Only One is an epic arena style sword fighting game where you push and kill waves of enemies off a pillar in the sky with your magical sword. You don't fight for glory, you fight to survive!

Defeat your enemies in gruelling combat or take the easy way out and push them off the pillar to their death down below. Capture enemy shields to block your opponents attacks and use your abilities in strategic and dynamic ways like deflecting fireballs back at the wizard or going in dangerously close and unleashing the whirlwind.

Gain powers and strength with a wide variety of abilities and upgrades. Hack and slash through over 90 waves and 9 bosses as you litter the tiny battlefield with bodies and blood to ultimately become the only one left standing!

Ratings and reviews

A solid 4 This game has what it promises. unfortunately you need to purchase " ultimate power*" to be able to buy some of the op powers. so that takes up a star. and the fact that this can cause some headaches and frustration, it's cool. but overtime it leaves me with the question, why? then again I never finished this game so... if you're willing to pay this game may not be the game you should invest in. Buut that's my opinion. I just think that this game's not for me.

September 2025 Edit: This game a thtis point in time has no cloud save feature that lets you transfer game data from one phone to another, so I have to take off two stars because of that. (Original review) Despite the somewhat annoying micro transactions, this game is fantastic. If you like thrilling Rome type arena gladiatorial battle games on the go, this game is for you.

Wonderful retro styled game with a simple concept but diverse game play. You have to survive on top of a pillar in the sky by killing or knocking out enemies. The gameplay is varied, the enemies are diverse and despite how frustrating the higher levels get you simply don't feel like letting go. My one complaint is how hard it is to pick up enemy drops. No matter how many times you cross it, the character doesn't pick it up
