Completely devoid of graphics, this tries to compensate with some large and colourful text displays. It gets off to a bad start by choosing your team for you, with no option to change. It also has no customable options other than inputting your name.The game itself is extremely simple, with buying and selling players or moving their position being the only way to influence matches. There are no training options or ways to improve player statistics.
The matches themselves are equally poor. It is no surprise that these are simple text-based sequences but they are remarkably limited. Apart from the scores and match time, they are limited to showing when a try is scored and whether it is converted. The team names are correct but there is nothing else really to recommend here.
