The actual turn-based gameplay in Blood Bowl, specifically the way in which you choose your moves, is good and has been adapted well for console. Hexus has also enjoyed watching the brutal violence escalate on the pitch. However, the appalling A.I. ultimately makes the single player career mode a real turn-off and the real-time mode is an add-on that was entirely unnecessary.
Stick to the online arena however and fans of dice-rolling game should get a few kicks out of its tactically challenging gameplay. Just keep your fingers and toes crossed that the die roll in your favour.
Games Workshops' Blood Bowl debuted in 1986, and since has seen numerous updates, re-releases and video game spin-offs.
