BrantSteele is well known because it helped define the Hunger Games simulator format online. This page is for people who like that style of randomized arena storytelling, but want a more modern custom simulator with tribute attributes, browser image uploads, repeatable seeds, and custom event libraries.
Quick Answer
Hunger Games Simulator is a fan-made BrantSteele Hunger Games Simulator alternative for custom browser runs. It supports custom tribute names, districts, pictures, stats, replayable seeds, and event libraries. You can paste and export BrantSteele text events, but direct BrantSteele saved season URL or code import is not supported yet.
It is not affiliated with BrantSteele, Lionsgate, Suzanne Collins, or The Hunger Games franchise. The goal is to give players a free, mobile-friendly way to build their own arena stories in the browser.
Why Look for a BrantSteele Alternative?
Many players start with BrantSteele because it is familiar and easy to share. The reason to try another simulator is not that the old format is bad. It is that modern runs often need more control: custom tribute stats, faster mobile setup, uploaded portraits, repeatable seeds, and event text that fits your group or story.
If you are simulating original characters, a classroom activity, a Discord server, a friend group, or a fandom crossover, extra customization makes the run easier to follow and more fun to replay.

What This Simulator Does Differently
Tributes Have Gameplay Profiles
Every tribute can have a different balance of strength, speed, intelligence, and survival. That means your roster is not just a list of names. A fast tribute can feel different from a tough tribute, and a clever tribute can survive in a different way than a pure fighter.
Custom Events Change the Voice of the Run
A simulator becomes much more personal when the event log can use your own tone, jokes, rivalries, and scenarios. Custom day, night, feast, and arena events help each run feel tied to your cast instead of a generic event pool.
If you already have event text from a BrantSteele-style setup, open the event library, choose Import, and paste the BrantSteele Text format. The current importer handles common Bloodbath, Day, Night, Feast, Arena, and fatal event sections.
Seeds Make Results Easier to Share and Test
When a run is especially funny or dramatic, a seed makes it easier to replay and compare. You can keep the same roster and settings, rerun a known outcome, or build challenges where everyone starts from the same setup.
Who This Alternative Is Best For
- Players who want a custom Hunger Games simulator with adjustable tribute stats.
- Creators running original character, fandom, friend group, or classroom simulations.
- Mobile and Chromebook users who want a browser-based setup without downloads.
- Anyone who wants custom events and replayable seeds instead of one-off random runs.
Is This an Official Hunger Games or BrantSteele Product?
No. This is a fan-made web simulator. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or associated with Lionsgate, The Hunger Games franchise, or BrantSteele. The goal is to offer a free custom simulation tool for people who enjoy arena-style storytelling.
BrantSteele Import Questions
Can I import BrantSteele events?
Yes, for BrantSteele text event libraries. Paste the event text into the Import dialog in the event library. The importer is designed for section headers such as Bloodbath Events, Day Events, Night Events, Feast Events, Arena Events, and their fatal variants.
Can I import a BrantSteele saved season code or URL?
Not directly. BrantSteele saved season links and r.php codes are not parsed by this site yet. If you can export or copy the event text, use the BrantSteele Text import path instead.
What should I use this alternative for?
Use it when you want a quick custom Hunger Games simulation with editable tribute stats, browser image uploads, mobile-friendly setup, replayable seeds, and event libraries you can tune over time.
Try It Free
You do not need an account, download, plugin, or payment. Open the simulator, build a roster, tune the attributes, and start a run. If you want more control afterward, use the guide to add seeds and custom event libraries.
