Spleef is one of The Games run by The Old Builders. The objective of the game is to knock people off a snow platform, where they get crushed and eliminated. Also, Gladiators throw TNT from platforms above the main one from time to time to speed up the elimination process.
Overview[]
Location[]
Spleef is located in the main arena for The Games which is located in a snowy biome, in the world of The Old Builders. The arena itself is also located relatively close to the Competitor's Village and Hadrian's Palace.
Rules[]
- The first major rule of Spleef is that a competitor may not directly attack or hit another competitor, i.e, with a Sword.
- Any competitor who falls into the area beneath the snow, either by accident or as a result of another competitor/gladiator, will be killed and subsequently eliminated.
- The competitors may only bring a Shovel to Spleef. This is evidenced by the competitors only dropping a shovel when they die.
- A competitor may not attempt to attack, harm or kill a Gladiator during Spleef.
- Competitors may only break the snow blocks using an Iron Shovel or lower, (stone or wooden). It can be assumed that Gold, Diamond and Enchanted Shovels are not allowed to be used.

- Ivor has a diamond (symbolizing the one that he tricked Jesse and Petra with in episode one, giving instead a Lapis Lazuli), one of 3 potion bottles that represents the last potion that Jesse didn't use after Sky City and Crown Mesa (Speed, Leaping, or Invisibility), and a mind-control chip he got from Crown Mesa.
- Finally, Petra has a Lapis Lazuli (the one she got from Ivor instead of a diamond as mentioned above in episode one), and sticks she whittled from the trees outside the White Pumpkin's mansion.
- Petra admitted that Spleef and the other games would be fun if Hadrian and Mevia didn't force people to be there against their wills.
