The new Blood Bowl game Dungeon Bowl is now up for download here

http://www.dungeonbowl-game.com/en/

The games by Cyanide who done Blood Bowl, note the game is online only.

Should be interesting haven't downloaded it myself yet.

$15, but only three teams so far.

If they ever go beyond the eight colleges of magic, I might be interested.

Damm pc only.....

I was looking at this and it looks awful :( From the gameplay, poor graphics and half finished teams. Ugh.

This should have been done as an addition for the other 2 versions of their Blood Bowl games, not as a stand alone product. Had they done that then I would have been all over it.

Its made by different people, thats why it was not an add on, i thuoght it was ok, only cost a tenner.
Glad i didnt play more though, would have liked a single player.

Online only?

Ok forget that...

Yeah, I don't really like how all games now require you to be constantly online...even single player games like Diablo 3 for example.

Still Cyanide?

Picked it up, and regret doing so. Might be fun, but the fact that it's online only and I had NFI what I was doing doesn't encourage me to keep plugging away at it. YMMV. Back to CKII I go!

I'm still ticked at paying fifty bucks for Bloodbowl when they didn't have a distributor, followed by "Now that the game's finished and we finally added the missing teams, buy the game again! You get a five dollar off coupon!"

Also never managed to finish an online game due to constant crashes and disconnects for one player or the other.

Nope,
It is cyanide, but its not the same people that made BB 1 + 2, BB 1 + 2 were made by focus as well.
BB 3 is being done by Focus as well.
I only found out this when i posted on the bb forum and was told i was not allowed to mention dungeonbowl as they didnt make it.

By the looks of it, Focus is the publisher which means they don't actually develop the game. That looks to be Cyanide on all the previous titles.

Yes this one is a Cyanide only release, from the developers of Blood Bowl.

Focus has the publishing writes for the Blood Bowl series.

This ^^, Focus came in AFTER BB1 was in the final stage of development, ONLY to market the game.

I hate to buck the trend but I like this game. The AI in blood bowl is terrible so I don't mind no single player.

It can be a frustrating game at times but is a lot of fun. It opens the door to new skill combos and wacky tactics. Frenzy-stand firm is massive in narrow dungeons full of pit traps.

My major gripe is the UI. Its always been substandard in blood bowl and this is no different.

I'm not sure we're understanding each other. All the products were made by Cyanide?

Every game has one or more developers, which are the people who MAKE the game. For the Blood Bowl series, that has been Cyanide; in that sense, this game is no different in that sense. Still the same developers (although it might not be the same office). This game is made by exactly the same people who made all the other ones.

Focus don't make games*, they sell them.

(* although publishers act differently, some "embed" themselves with developers to very different degrees)
