All the ACTION of live matches right in your home! This game includes: 60 action cards Texas Death/Steel Cage charts Russian chain/Nebraska Bullrope charts 2-Man & 3-Man Tag Team charts Official rule booklet & Scoring sheets 2 Sets of playing dice Special results chart to record who-beat-who and how often Boot Camp Dog Collar charts Colored clips to mark your champs Wrestlers are represented by Action cards, which are broken up into smaller 2d6 style tables divided into General, Offensive, Defensive, Ropes, & Specialty. Each roll on a table either results in the wrestler performing a move, or results in a roll on another table which will eventually result in a move or maneuver. By it's own admission "The SPWG is a unique simulation of professional wrestling, and not a simple board game." The game contains no licensed "real life" wrestlers, but each unique Action Card is patterned to resemble popular wrestlers of the day and players were encouraged to name the Action Cards themselves after wrestlers that fit each card's wrestling style.
Superstar Pro Wrestling Game supports 1–4 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it.
