Description

Main Event Wrestling is a thrilling board game that puts you right in the middle of a professional wrestling match. Designed by Michael Anderson, this 1998 game is all about strategy and a little bit of luck, making it a great fit for board game enthusiasts who enjoy a challenge. With a playtime of 60 minutes, you and your opponent will engage in a fierce battle, using cards to make attacks, defend against maneuvers, and try to outmaneuver each other. The game mechanics are straightforward, with a normal level of complexity that's easy to learn, even for those familiar with board games. As you play, you'll use dice rolling, hand management, and variable set-up to gain the upper hand, all while trying to catch your opponent off guard. The game is full of humor and sports action, with cards featuring iconic pro wrestling moves like the Figure Four Leg Lock and Atomic Drops. Each turn, you'll play a "strike-kick-grab" game to determine who gets to attack, adding an element of unpredictability to the match. The goal is to pin, knock out, or disqualify your opponent's wrestler, and the game ends when one player emerges victorious or the card deck has been reshuffled a set number of times. With its unique blend of strategy and luck, Main Event Wrestling is a fun and exciting game that's sure to delight fans of sports and humor alike.
