Game Description:

Bloodbowl is where fantasy meets american football. Bloodbowl started as tabletop game by Games Workshop that parodied football in an alternate version of the vaunted Warhammer fantasy universe. The game consists of such fantasy stalwarts as goblins, dwarves, human warriors, elves, orcs, and, of course, ogres. However, early versions of the PC game did not consist of all the possible races. In fact, the first time I bought the game at Walmart, I recieved what is known as the Dark Elves Edition. More recently, I bought the best possible version known as the Chaos edition. This version includes all 23 races and is the latest version before Blood Bowl 2.

  2. Very customize-able American Football game. I’ve never seen anything like this game. It’s completely unique and original and just utterly entertaining. All the characters are fun to play with and to try out different setups with. I suggest this to anyone who likes brutal yet sporty games. I give it a 5/5 rating. c:
