Review by David Welbourn (originally posted at Baf's Guide)

As the "Veteran", a pro wrestler past his prime, you are a last-minute replacement in a World title championship match. You are too old and weak to have a hope of winning honestly. But you are "smarter", and plan to eliminate all your opponents before the match even begins. Not through murder, but you're quite willing to ruin their careers or disable them so they can't compete.

As a puzzle game, it's a nice snack. And it's reasonably well-coded. But you might be put off somewhat by the immorality of the PC.

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️
