    Hopefully it's worth 0.00$ that I spent on it. Nobody will read my review so I Will Eat 1 Tablespoon of ketchup For Every Like this gets.

    A year or so back I purchased the Fatshark Bundle for myself and a friend. At first glance all the games looked entertaining and the reviews were good. Letting the game run for cards it unlocked one achievement and in doing so dropped my overall percentage score, it is because of this that I have played this game a lot sooner than I was planning. Before I get into the details of why you shouldn't purchase this game let me tell you what's good about it first. The game itself looks good and runs…

    Maybe this game was good when it was released. However, this is a multiplayer only game with no players and that was abandoned by its devs. Spending money on the game at this point is a waste. If the game had a player base it might have many strengths. As it is, stay far away.

    My recommendation for this game is primarily a no. Everything works here for me, I've experienced no crashes or other random issues. Multiplayer works as expected, even in abysmal 400 ping conditions it didn't bug out. One annoyance I've had with this that I have no clue if it's standard on mobas is that items and proper skill descriptions can't be viewed outside a match. Wanna study what items are out there? Spend the time you got between waves browsing the shop, time that could be spent on…

    Fun and a novel premise. PvE horde mode MOBA. It's actually pretty well executed but whoever was in charge of the progression path needs fired. Impossible to solo, impossible to find any players not to solo. The two servers I did find were password protected because GADS forbid one should actually play with other people in a co-op multiplayer game. Still, for 69p on sale, I'd say I've got my money's worth out of the game. I just feel it could have been more and better. Not recommended…

    Bloodsports.TV builds upon popular concepts: a player vs. computer MOBA (multiplayer online battle arena) set in a post-apocalyptic environment, topped with a TV-show setup (that's mainly only represented in the game's trailer). Unfortunately it can't do much with the promising elements: the average gameplay, the low quantity of playable maps and available skills make it feel as if the creators lost interest halfway through development and gave up on adding more content to increase variety…

    The game is repetitive, I don't mind that though since I like these types of games. It's top down similar to Diablo and Dota, you choose from 4 types of characters - tank, damage dealer, disabler and healer. Each has different characters to them as well with different abilities. There are bunch of arenas much like tower defense games with different layouts but this is not a tower defense game. You have to defend the main core from the waves of enemies trying to get to it. There is something…

    Good, old Abandoned Game. Can still be fun solo to a point. can make achievement progress on 3 of the 4 classes solo, though will need at least 1 person for the healer, better with a group of friends. Hero Tower defense, Limited Maps,classes and characters, but i enjoyed whats here. Pick it up if you have buddies and need a new game to play occasionally. Buy it on Sale, 3/5

    I am not fan of this type of games but I decided to try. I see many complain about dead community and how hard it is to find someone to play with. I played only one match. First there were two of us and one player joined after few minutes. This was my first time playing and I could see other two players were eperienced. We played almost 2 hours. I made lots of mistakes and kudos for two other players for putting up with me. But I guess they didnt had any choice as it is hard to find…

    This is a multiplayer online-only 2D top down MOBA with a cartoony/cel shaded art theme. Kill swarms with your friends and protect the missile silo. Once more we have a sad case of developers confusing multiplayer for content. Other players aren't content. The outcome of such a blunder? Unless your game goes E-Sports tier critical mass (and very, very few do), it dies hard and fast. If they added a single player campaign, some content, something to make the game last, it would have a…

Because amount of people playing this game is low. And I mean really low So, what's good about this game? It's nice, at least I like it, and that few people who still play it ( shout out to them for still playing this game, not that there are many of you ) If you have a friend or two or 4, all of you like co-op games, all of you play MOBA games,…

    It's a bit clunky, the player base is dead, and it's online only (even for solo play). That being said, it's under $1 on sale and more than enjoyable enough for that price. If you've got friends to play with, then it's quite fun for as long as the servers stay up on a 2015 game with minimal active players...so buyer beware and keep your purchase to the sale price. So, anyway, for $1, it's a nice little dystopian hack and slash tower defense game with several character choices, ability and…

    Entertaining and fun game! Feels a lot like a DoTA or Warcraft III Custom Hero Survival standalone game mixed with a shop heavily inspired by League of Legends. As a big fan and enjoyer of Custom Hero Survival maps and mods in aforementioned titles, this game genre is something I feel is severely underrated. PROS - CHARACTERS - There's 8 different heroes, who all feel viable, and have some identity on their own. - ITEMS - There's a lot of different items and builds to try out, especially if…

    It is painful to write this review. The game has great concept mixing MOBA + RPG plus RTS however it is greatly downplayed by the multiplayer functionality. The only multiplayer available is via LAN coop which it is deserted. Unless you have friends like moba, and who can play with you, you will get bored very quickly PS. My sad amumu like icon has nothing to do with the sad review :P

    I enjoy the game, it has a way of being playable at least partly single player, but to get past certain hurdles you'll need at least two good team mates. It's the sort of game where you need friends most of the time and while I don't love the game, I don't hate it either. The game has a PvE MOBA feel over it, there are 4 classes, Tanks, Slayers, Medics and Crowd Controllers, each class has 2 characters each who focuses on one play style often which can be Solo healer, Tanking DPS etc. This is…

    Bloodsports.TV, developed by Toadman Interactive and Fatshark and published by Fatshark, is a cooperative arena game that blends elements of MOBA-style character design with wave-based survival gameplay. Rather than focusing on direct player-versus-player competition, it shifts the emphasis toward teamwork, positioning players as gladiators in a deadly televised spectacle where survival depends on coordination and adaptability. This hybrid approach gives the game a distinctive identity, even if…

    Bloodsports.TV - It's an older game, so with that in mind, it's not re-inventing anything in the "Tower Defense/Strategy" genre. However, it holds up to being fun if you're into similar games. Recommend getting some friends if you feel like a couple waves of killing mobs and upgrading your class. Controls can be tweaked as they are somewhat awkward (aka the "right-click" to move character across the arena/map) Other than that, once you get the hang of it, it's fun for what it is.…

    Bloodsports.TV is a small, match-based co-op arena game built around surviving enemy waves while defending a central objective. It has a tongue-in-cheek “future gladiator show” vibe, and it’s designed to be picked up for short sessions rather than a long campaign. The main loop is straightforward: choose a fighter, clear a wave, spend currency on upgrades, then repeat until a boss arrives. It’s easy to understand within minutes, and the constant pressure keeps you moving instead of wandering…

If you know people to play with its a very descent game. Buy it preferible on sale and with the 5 people pack. And enjoy some fun.

    This game has an ultra specific audience. If you liked hero sieges in Warcraft 3, you might like Bloodsports.TV If you didn't, you will definitely not. As far as the hero siege format goes, I think a lot of Warcraft 3 customs did it a bit better, but this game delivers decent fun for a while if you can get a game filled.
