En Garde! "Tig Duels: For Extraordinary Gentlemen and Such Etc." is a wonderfully silly one-switch fencing game for two players.

You can tease your opponent, attack, retreat and block all using a single control. You can even play against people on-line. Such duels are initiated through a slightly more complex interface to get started, and involves slapping a glove across your chosen opponents face!

Controls
: Players 1 and 2 can choose whatever control they like to play at the initial starting screen. ALT+Enter toggles full screen mode, and F8 toggles extra menu options (Mouse accessible). From the main menu, you can choose to adjust the blood effects (replace them with stars for younger players) and you can also turn off the speech, which is a bit rude at times.

As the game is two player only, finding a way to balance the abilities of both players will likely result in the most fun gameplay. On-line connection can be fiddly, with you having to mess about with firewalls and program permissions. Certainly very easy to play side by side though.
