How it feels
A fast and fizzy top-down rugby sim that blends old-school pixel art with modern physics for quick, punchy matches.

What players say
Players appreciate having a rugby game on Steam, and the core gameplay can be fun when it works. However, many find the controls frustrating and the AI unreliable, with a penalty and ruck system that feels random and unexplained. Multiple reviews also point to a lack of polish, including poor sound design and confusing menus.
