Featuring a 'flying eye' ball and ghoulish players, this isn't your average sport sim. In fact it isn't very sporting at all: you can even change the rules and customise the pitch, burying mines to surprise the opposition!

As well as selecting from a wide range of plays, there's player substitutions and control of the arcade action. The latter is well implemented with some amusing graphics, though not as slick as the superb presentation screens with their brilliant animted sequences.

The literally monstrous variation on the gridiron theme adds a lot of extra fun to a well-designed, playable game.
