Intergalactic Cage Match, is a wrestling game released for the Commodore 64 in 1987 by Mastertronic. Despite its ambitious premise of intergalactic wrestling bouts, the game is widely regarded as one of the worst titles ever published on the C64.

The gameplay is painfully monotonous. Although the game presents the illusion of variety by offering multiple opponents, this is nothing more than a facade. Once you defeat an opponent, the game forces you to fight the same one over and over again, completely eliminating any sense of progression. Instead of facing tougher challenges or moving up a ranking system, you’re trapped in an endless cycle, making the experience feel utterly pointless.

The control system is abysmal. Moving your wrestler feels sluggish and unresponsive, as if the joystick is embedded in oak wood. There is no fluidity in the way the characters move, and even attempting basic maneuvers feels like a struggle. The combat is just as uninspired, with players only able to perform a handful of clumsy punches and strikes, plus a single so-called "power move" that does little to improve the experience. The game quickly devolves into button-mashing with little room for strategy or skill.

To make matters worse, the outcome of fights feels almost entirely random. If you manage to strike your opponent first, you stand a decent chance of wearing him down and escaping the cage for a win. But if he lands the first blow, you’re more often than not doomed, as the mechanics make it nearly impossible to recover. This complete lack of balance turns every match into a frustrating guessing game rather than a contest of skill. The presentation is just as miserable. The graphics are blocky and poorly defined, with character sprites that often suffer from glitches. Some animations look downright broken, as if the game wasn’t even properly finished before being released. The sound design is just as grating, with repetitive, uninspired music and sound effects that amount to little more than bursts of unpleasant noise.

Critics at the time did not hold back. A review from the Mastertronic Collectors Archive gave "Cage Match" an abysmal 0.5 out of 10, citing the repetitive fights, unplayable controls, and the outright lack of any meaningful gameplay progression. The reviewer went as far as to question how the game ever passed quality control, calling it a perfect example of how not to design a wrestling game. The game’s legacy is one of pure disappointment, standing as a reminder of how rushed, low-effort releases plagued the budget gaming market of the time.

In short, Cage Match is an insult to wrestling games. It’s a clunky, repetitive mess that fails on every level, from gameplay to controls to presentation. While the C64 had its fair share of bad games, this one sits comfortably among the worst. It serves no purpose other than reminding players just how unpolished and unenjoyable a video game can be.

Cybowormz, or is it Spore 2 on the Commodore 64?

Cybowormz is a cancelled #Commodore64 game with a bit of a secret behind it. It's actually an early build of the long lost budget title - Spore 2, which was due from Mastertronic in 1989. Hopefully more can be found some day!

Vita Player Review Index

We had the idea to do this after doing something similar over on one of our other sites, the Mastertronic Collectors Archive. We’ve got a massive amount of game reviews here on Vita Player but for those of you wanting to know just what games we’ve covered, or if you’re looking for a particular review it’s not always an easy task. So we’ve decided to put this index together so you can find links…
