WWF SuperStars

Take to the World Wrestling Federation ring and kick, punch and pin some monkey ass! This Gameboy adaptation of the mega American "sport" enables you to adopt the persona of either Mr. Perfect, The Ultimate Warrior, Hulk Hogan, Macho King Randy Savage or Ted DiBiase - The Million Dollar Man!

Your objective in the game is to fight your way to the top of the World Wrestling Federation in pursuit of the coveted world title. To achieve this end, you face up to the rest of the WWF wrestlers featured in the game in a series of terrifying, but yet entertaining bouts (onr or three falls, with or without a time limit - it's up to you).

Once you're in the ring, your aim is simply to force your opponent to stay on the canvas for three seconds. You can do this with a couple of methods. Firstly, you can pin your opponent to the canvas (although if he's got enough energy he shrugs off your assault) or you can cause him so much damage that he'll keel over and not get up!

Head-To-Head Wrestling

WWF Superstars

Got your supa-groovy Gameboy head-to-head cable handy? Got a pal with a Gameboy and another WWF cart? Well, why not hook them up together for some two-player thrills 'n spills. Rather than just participate in a tournament, this version of the game is a simple one-on-one bout, with each player choosing their fave WWF wrestler.

It's very easy to finish, but WWF SuperStars is just great fun - especially when taking part in a one-on-one two-player bout. Classy graphics and decent playability make this one to check out and pronto!

Unlike their real-life counterparts, the wrestlers in this game are complete pushovers and finishing the game is very easy. However, the two-player mode is absolutely brilliant and offers plenty of thrills 'n spills. WWF fans should love it!
