Battle Royale of America Wrestling LeagueGenre: fighting - wrestling
Publisher: NEC
Year: 1990
System: TurboGrafx-16
Gameplay Score: 2
Gameplay Notes:
Fast but stilted movement. Really only fun as a multiplayer game. I is a low punch while II is a kick with longer range. In both cases you just mash until the other guy is on the mat, then you get below him to pick him up and throw him out of the ring. Pure button masher.
Level Design Score: 1
Level Design Notes:
Only single-match exhibition mode.
Theme Score: 4
Theme Notes:
Very silly, but also heavy on fan service. The girls before the fight are pure window dressing. Post match stats remind me of Smash Bros. Also shows a replay of the POG. Way more than I was expecting.
Art Style Score: 2
Art Style Notes:
Tiny sprites. Boring ring. Not much to look at. The character designs are impressive although there are only 5 wrestlers.
Audio Score: 3
Audio Notes:
Fun music and sound effects. Decent voices of the wrestlers, even if they're repetitive. One of them sounds just like Arnold's signature yell.
Overall Score: 39
