GW 12: Games We Will Not Play / Volume 1

Rebound -- A game for three or more players. From Darrel's Gamebox.

Players use their skills of anticipation, technique, and positioning to gather in errant tosses from other players. Aggressiveness too plays a role in this fast paced game where elbows may fly and smack is commonplace.

Comment from the publisher: "We tried to make Rebound an authentic game. We wanted it to be a game that would mirror actual basketball play. We studied a lot of film during game development and spent a lot of time in the gym too. We looked at what it was that made some people good rebounders, and why others seemed to be out of position.

"This truly is a game where the person with the most rebounds just might not be the best rebounder. In fact, he probably sucks."
