[h1][i]Remember, there are those of us on the inside who want you to succeed, but there are at least as many who want to see you crash and burn.[/i][/h1] So, as far as I remember, SLAMMED! was released on Android in 2013. That was when I tried its demo version for the first time. What I do like about Choice of Games titles is that they have no graphics and music – you just use our own imagination and create the world around your character. However, this also makes it difficult to make games like this. The writing, the story, and the game’s universe must be really good to engage its reader and compensate the lack of some multimedia features. Was SLAMMED! able to do it? [h1]What I liked[/h1] The writing is excellent. I did not notice any major mistakes (except for some related to genders and some small typos) and the pacing was easy to follow. It is also nice to see that the author of SLAMMED! created believable environment where everything is not just about fighting – people in the game have their own dreams and fears, as well as interests. The characters get the right amount of development without taking your spotlight. There are lots of choices to be made. Some are just minor ones that will help to set your personality, but others will have a huge impact on the storyline. It is easy to see that the writer of this game is really, really passionate about wrestling and knows this topic perfectly. There are lots of wrestling terms and descriptions (which I will also partially describe in the negative part of my review); there are different ways to deal with each fight – some can be scripted and some require an actual effort for you to succeed. The last but not least: there are several romantic options and different endings, so the game offers a good amount of replayability. [h1]What I need to complain about[/h1] To start with, I know next to nothing about wrestling – literally. My initial knowledge of the topic was based on the relevant episode from South Park and some parts of WWE SmackDown that I saw on our 2x2 channel long time ago. Oh, and I have also heard of John Sena, of course. At first, it was quite difficult for me to understand some terms and what was actually going on. Why do I need those promos and am I supposed to win by actually beating somebody or is it just a play for the public? What the heck is Kayfabe? I had to make some research while playing or I would stay confused until somebody explained it to me in the game itself. And here comes my main complaint: the author really should have added some kind of wrestling dictionary or some explanation of stats and abbreviations in the Show Stats part (some other CoG and HoG titles do it now). That would make my first playthrough way easier, to be honest. Now the second complaint that I had already mentioned: the game sometimes mixes genders of characters. For example, I was playing as a female, and my team consisted of females too; one of them was Giana. However, during a party at JJ’s house, Giana all of a sudden was called *he*: [i] “You both looked at Giana, who was happily guzzling down [b]his[/b] third can, and sighed.”[/i] [h1]To sum up[/h1] If you are a big fan of wrestling, then SLAMMED! is a perfect choice for you. However, if you as clueless about this sport as I am, you might find it difficult to understand and appreciate the amount of terms, names, etc. Maybe it will inspire you to learn more about wrestling, or maybe you will get bored and just close the game and forget about it. It really depends on your taste. All in all, SLAMMED! has good writing and quite a lot of drama that will build up during the whole game (sometimes even too much drama); there are also interesting characters and a lot of choices and endings. Quite a lot to explore, right? [h1][i][url=https://steamcommunity.com/groups/LucyCorner]You can find more reviews at my personal Curator Page. Please, give it a read ❤ [/url][/i][/h1]

I don't know the first thing about wrestling, but after this I wanted to learn everything about it. This is some seriously quality writing. There are elements of all of the great literay pieces ever made, there are friendships, betrayals, revenge, romance, humour, it's all here. The twists and turns are amazing, the choices are very clear and you'll benefit from sticking to your guns through the course of the story rather than trying to game the system. I didn't expect this to grab me the way it had, but after being unable to stop playing until I completed it at about 3am, I think it's up their with the best COG or HG have to offer. ...honestly never thought in a millions years I'd be getting choked up at a wresting text adventure at 3am on a random Monday night. Outstanding.
Tell me you don't understand wrestling without telling me you don't understand wrestling. Written by someone who clearly just discovered a pro-wrestling thesaurus and the Wrestling Observer. Reads like a bad recap of a Road To Wrestlemania mode or Russo-Era WCW/TNA show with an even stranger insistence that every major thread somehow be a shoot. Not even worth a second run to see if the other routes are any better. Miserable experience.
Cant recommend it enough. Not sure how it'd feel for non wrestling fans, but if you are into wrestling its a must read.
The most well-written CoG I've played (out of 6) AND I'm a rasslin' fan. Was invested in the story and satisfied by the ending before realizing there were alternate paths/endings I didn't even sniff. 10/10.
There is so much happening in this game that it's basically my ultimate wet dream when it comes to story telling in wrestling games. I love the starting up from school amateur wrestling then the indy circuit just when you get to the top only for your dreams to crumple up in your hands. The backstage corruption, politics, choices make you want to just get payback on those wrongdoers. I will say this, if you like wrestling (which I would assume you do looking at this) and you like the choose your adventure books, then this is a perfect match, hands down.
I just want to punch people in the face and break some necks, not put up with all this melodrama bs that takes up like 50% of the game's playtime also, I hoped that promos would be an important thing, but it just ended up being a dump stat
It is important here to realize what kind of product this is: it's a story. It is about a certain type of career, and you won't be changing that much. The amount of choice is about the same as other stories. For what it is, it's good. Don't expect to do a lot of wrestling here. Nearly all of it is chit-chat.
Really really good game. I absolutely loved it. I just wish it went for a bit longer. PLEASE MAKE ANOTHER GAME LIKE THIS.
I've haven't been interested in wrestling since I was in grade school. Nevertheless, this was an interesting and enjoyable game.
