Rocket Ball

Remember Rollerball, the futuristic film about a very violent game with manic Bach organ music? Well, here's the game. Two teams of five players career anti-clockwise around the circuit looking to nab the ball, batter the opposition and pot a few goals.

Everything is allowed - there's no such thing as a foul - but the basic techniques of play need practising or you certainly won't get a look in when playing the computer. There are eight joystick actions to master but nothing too involved, it's just a case of knitting everything together to avoid disjointed play. Take on the micro, or slug it out with a friend in this futuristic rough-house of a gladiatorial contest on wheels.

By far the best of IJK's current programs and worth having if you fancy a change from soccer.
