Today, Ziggurat Interactive, publisher of multiplatform retro and modern games, is thrilled to announce that the fantasy sports game M.U.D.S. is the latest Retro First Friday title! Equal parts arcade sports fun and violent fantasy bloodbath, M.U.D.S. is back and better than ever!
To achieve victory, players must be the first to score seven goals or kill enough of the opposing team to secure the win. Tackles, pummelings, and being thrown into the moat — where a shark-like thing will eat you if you don’t get out on time — are just some of the fun gameplay moments that await in M.U.D.S.! Of course, there are more ways to win: bribing the opposing team, the referee, or the actual ball are all viable strategies for victory! Should your team need a little extra morale, just pick a fight, or buy and sell players on the transfer market whenever you like.
Developed originally by Golden Goblins and published by Rainbow Arts, M.U.D.S. was released in 1990 and is still one of the most unique sports games ever created. M.U.D.S. features 16 cities to visit, 16 unique alien races, and a campaign mode where players must buy, sell, and manage team members. As the team’s manager, players can choose to bribe opposing players or refs for advantages, get loans, manage finances, choose to spend more resources to heal players, and embark on a journey to become the champions of the entire continent. Remember, the only way to win is to PLAY DIRTY!
M.U.D.S is now available on Steam and GOG. For a limited time, pick it up for a 33% discounted price!
