    Blood Bowl 2 captures everything that makes the board game great and makes it available to those not willing to shell out a hundred dollars on miniatures. The passion the developers have for their game is clear to see, and the result proves that their love was not misplaced—it's easy to see that Blood Bowl 2 is one of the greatest board game translations ever.

    Blood Bowl 2 will require patience to learn its ins and outs, but thankfully it has a great way to teach you the ropes throughout its campaign.

    Traditionally tabletop games are getting more and more attention on screens, and Blood Bowl is one that benefits from the evolution.

    The game may not immediately show its appeal but once you get into the meat of the experience you may find yourself enamoured by this brutal fantasy sport and gaining a newfound appreciation of turn-based strategy games.

    A smart mixture of Warhammer strategy and American Football, BB 2 combines the nuance of turn-based skill with perceptive risk management to create a game that is equal parts joy and pain to figure out.

    Blood Bowl 2 gives you hilarious, but brute action. There are enough races, but less than in the previous game. The game is especially fun in multiplayer and offers a complete experience with minor flaws. Definitely a touchdown.

    Blood Bowl 2 is a step forward. It's a much friendlier, easier game than its predecessors, with improved looks, a tutorial campaign, controller support, and the UI improvements. New players won't feel blocked off from enjoying it.

    It's not for everyone, but this interesting mix of American Football and Warhammer, filled with deep tactical gameplay, will keep any fan busy for hours and hours on end. Shame the graphics aren't exactly groundbreaking. And while we're nitpicking: would have been nice if we were able to read the words on the screen as well.

    If you can get past the long AI turns and the generally long matches, then Blood Bowl 2 is worth buying.

An adaptation of the board game and sequel to the cult PC hit, it's a turn-based hybrid of fantasy and sports. Each team feels like they play differently, with the Elves running a more agile run and score or passing game, whereas the Dwarves typically run headlong into other players to keep the ball. It's a game that appeals to hardcore fans of the series and newbies, but new players should definitely play the campaign as a lengthy tutorial before they jump in to the league. This game is far from a blockbuster, with some bugs and design flaws, but there is serious fun to be had here, where you can create your own team and league for online or offline play. My only gripe is the delay of DLC on certain platforms.… Full Review »

With orcs, demon goats, ratmen, and more, there are a variety of different playstyles to be found form the different teams. If you're new to the series, the campaign makes for a great tutorial for new players, so you'll soon be play against other players (or AI) in leagues and tournaments.… Full Review »
