What Makes Dan The Man Platformer Stand Out
MULTIPLAYER UPDATE
Wait what?! That's right! MULTIPLAYER has finally come to Dan The Man!
Our most requested feature of all time comes in the form of a classic "beat up a horde" style coop mode. Grab a friend and relive the glory days of retrocoop split screen… online! Don't have any friends? Dan the Man has you covered. Just search for a quick match and get an instant brawl buddy!
We are sure you'll agree that two Dans are better than one, as you both co-operative take to down an Army of Soldiers, Robots, Bats, and even Epic Bosses to clean up the streets of fury. Just make sure you take all the coins!
With more than 10 MILLION installs and growing each day, it’s easy to see why Dan the Man has been awarded as one of the “Best of Games for 2016” across the major mobile platforms!
With a cracking funny story, awesome upgradeable fighting skills and an epic arsenal of weapons that will make even the most heroic of heroes envious, Dan The Man's arcade fight fest has enough enemies and boss fights to satisfy every hardcore gamer.
What are you waiting for? Join the epicness! Be legendary! PLAY NOW!

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
It has been years since we downloaded this game and we learned a lot of combos and good things. We also loved using Custom designs to wreck those enemies.
Es una obra de arte su jugabilidad,la historia,y mecanicas us atraparon es una joya este juegaso.
We had the last 5 seconds to win but you added way to many enemies and we cant kill them all please add more time to the last one or make the enemys drop a full 10 second timer please.
This was our childhood way back then we love it still.
This games has to be one of the top best game Ive ever played.
This game is fun but we think it would be more fun if we didnt have to use those rancid mobile controls, PLEASE add controller support.
We dont like the games ads and there was one ad that we press skipped but the installment kept popping up and the skip button kept moving! Are you aware of the types of ads you put in this game and how many ads people have to go through! We remember once we were in a public area playing dan the man and one ad had girls bouncing on balls and it was already obvious they were trying to make the game inappropriate and had so much moaning in it! We get that we can get premium to stop getting these ads but is it possible to maybe lower the amount of ads and to look over the ads.
Es un buen juego tena otra cuenta de hace 4 aos y es un buen juego si quieres matar un poco el aburrimiento.
Dude this is the best game we grew up on nothing beats it.
Its a great game. Please make another game similar. Do something like the guy with the shotgun, but instead of the running its similar to this game. Different story, different missions, different fight style (shotgun for example) and still a blast.
This is the best game whoever made it is a smart guy.
Yo Im sitting here in our car playing this game in the drive thru and we love it.
Us gusta mucho es en 2d y genial.
We absolutely LOVE this game, once when we were little we CRIED all because we couldnt get this game. This is what not having Dan the man does to someone.
Very good but needs controller support.
Best mobile game, used to play it as a kid. Still do.
We love fighting games! We just dont like the adds but cool game.
This game is indescribably peak.
It feel good , runs good , storys good , gameplays good, the upgrades are cool, art is awesome JUST ADD IT TO CONSOLE.
Adds can be a problem. Also, characters need more upgrades. Needs more FREE storys or stories unlock-able for free with Premium. The game is good, but fix those and it will be much better.
Why is there no new game/ erase save data option? We played this game a while ago and we wanna play it again fresh but cant because theres no way to reset your save game file. We dont have anything to say about the game itself because again its been a while since Ive played just please let us reset our safe data.
Idk whats wrong with the game its definitely fun but every time we play then leave the app then come back now our game just slow going .5 speed and isnt the fun fast pace game we downloaded.
Try and ace every level in the base game on normal and hard.
Ive played this game every since like 7 and came back to it we still love it no one loves this game like us.
We like jetpack joyride but wish Barry was free :(.
How about a village maker game, a sequel with the same character creator and a time management game in honor of Dan the Man and Bill Steakfrie.
This game was honestly one of the best games Ive ever played Ive been playing this game for four years now and we just thought it was a great game you can play with others around the globe you can do a private match you can also play adventure mode and survival in our opinion the best mode is story mode we love how they also have a series for this game on YouTube we watched the whole thing and we think you should also watch it if you play this game but yea we really think you should get this if you are reading this and we cant wait for dan the man two and half brick if you reading this thanks for making this game we would say its one of your best anyway bye.
Had so much fun playing this again, blast from the past! Definitely will play on the regular, haha Love this game.
Dan is so cool, so cool Dan is our dad.
Dude You Need To Make Some Dan The Man 2 or 3 This Is Awsome As Heck.
Im being so serious, this was our childhood.
Its an OG game we love it how simple the combat move is and we just overall just think its a great game.
Awsome 8bit or 16bit graphics n fighting mechanics that make the game so cool.
We like the game it is so fun 100%.
Just enjoy the game man your lucky that this game is free unlike Minecraft because tbh this game is way better than Minecraft.
This game carried our child hood and we would be entertained for the whole day just play Dan the man 5 stars if could we would rate it 20 stars.
Soo we love this game BUT when we play a adventure IN the game is an add and bots can kill you really easy so pls fix it.
Lo jugaba de chiquito y us llega muchos recuerdos y es un muy buen juego.
The reason why because it has multiplayer,the adventrers,story line and the challanges for the event.
Support for the backbone controller would be awesome! Thank you for creating a good game.
We want to replay the game theres no reset button or save files.
It reminds us of street fighter and its super fun.
The reason this is the best game is that you have many upgrades so many levels and its a blast from the past.
We love the game but our device broke so we bought a new one but then we couldnt get our old account back. We love your game though.
Hey half brick we love the game but can you please add back bone support.
The games great. We lick the feature were when we go on FaceTime and we can put him on our screen.
This game is the best game ive ever played.
This game rlly fun we had ALOT of fun playing this game :D.
Please add this to console please this game is way too fun, but developer Just imagine it on console.
We played this and jetpack joy ride and the zombie vampire running game thing forgot what it was called but this is our childhood game right here.
