About This Game

Turn a scripted steel-cage wrestling match into a real fight in this 250,000-word interactive novel!

You’ve always dreamed of becoming pro wrestling’s biggest star…but a wrestler’s world is fraught with hardship and betrayal, in and out of the ring. Become a powerhouse, a technician, a high-flier, or focus on your promo skills. There’s more than one road to success.

But none of those roads will be easy. This is a world where your biggest fans are your harshest critics; where the front office is more dangerous than the squared circle; where friends can become enemies with a single heel turn; where, sometimes, the only way to win is to lose, spectacularly.

This is professional wrestling. And you’re about to change it, forever.

Slammed! is an epic interactive professional-wrestling novel by Paolo Chikiamco, where your choices control the story. The game is entirely text-based–without graphics or sound effects–and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination.

There’s never been a professional wrestling game like this, a game where the outcome of your final match, your choice of opponent, and your relationships affect the ending. When’s the last time you played a pro-wrestling RPG with a “kayfabe” stat?–or where your trash-talking “promo” ability is as important as your core strength and wrestling technique?

• Enjoy a 250,000-word personal tale of friendship, competition, and revenge.
• Develop not only your physical abilities, but a favored wrestling style.
• Become a heroic face, or a villainous heel–or even turn heel.
• Turn a scripted match into a real fight–and vice versa.
• Decide when to keep kayfabe, and when to break it.
• Play as male or female, gay or straight.

Reviews

“Another thing I’m really liking about Slammed! is that it doesn’t shy away from the nitty gritty, behind-the-scenes world of pro wrestling.”
