Feva's
new game packs no punches. Wrestle your way to be a winner
with the new WWE
DVD Board Game.
Build your team of Superstars beating your challengers to
the titles. To win you need to collect all four belts from
the different weight categories - use your WWE
money to trade your Superstar cards between you and your opponents.
Live out the dream of every WWE
Manager...
Take
on the role of a WWE manager and accumulate a stable
of superstars, collect prize money and earn championship titles.
The first manager to get every title for either RAW
or SmackDown! is declared general manager for that
brand, and wins the game.
We
played this in the office to see how it faired with a large
group playing it. A word of warning, this game is only going
to be of use if all players know quite a lot about WWE.
If you don't know John Cena from Batista, then you are not
really going to do very well at all. It's not so much skill,
as general WWE knowledge that will see you victorious
over your competitors. The first problem we had was that the
majority of our staff knew next to nothing about WWE
- a big problem. So, once we'd weeded those out, the rest
of us sat down to some serious fighting.
The
instructions are not easy to follow the first time you play
this game. In fact, unless you are really determined, you
might give up before you even get to play the game (and we've
got a total of six university degrees between us). Other games
that are DVD related usually come with instructions on the
DVD that illustrated how to play the game. The DVD version
of Atmosfear
has an excellent introduction on how to play the game. But
then, having said that, the WWE DVD board game isn't
technically as DVD intense as Atmosfear. Instead, the
DVD is used to provide puzzles to solve in order to advance
you in the game.
Because
of the fact that you have to be seriously up on WWE
it's very doubtful, in the UK at any rate, that many families
will be sitting down to play this after dinner. This is more
a game for fans of the franchise to sit around and play.
If
you are looking for a lightweight game where you don't have
to use your brain, then you'd better look elsewhere. However,
if you want to exercise the old grey matter, and you are very
up on the world of WWE, this could be the best £30
you spend this year.
