The Bitmap Brothers affirmed their status as leading action game developer with Speedball 1 and 2, two highly enjoyable futuristic ball games that combine elements of handball and rugby.
The simple goal of getting the ball past the goalkeeper is complicated by many "tokens" that allow you to give extra skill to the squad, bribe referee, turn the ball into a weapon, etc.
Speedball 2 greatly expands on the concept with bigger pitches, more complex league play, and more. You are scored for injuring your opponents as well as goals, so... let the carnage begin ;)

What DosBox speed should this be played at? Out of the box its waaay to fast and not what I remember at all.
that great cyberpunk hype of 80/90's and the delicious fruits of the imagination it brought...
This game was the death of many of my joysticks. Great game!
Speedball is also American slang for a mix of heroin and cocaine.
