CA Brumbies Challenge Game

How super are you Super Rugby skills? Rest easy: the CA Brumbies challenge will let you gauge precisely how competent you are at being super in all aspects of the super sport. A simple flash game at its core, it will allow you to gauge your skills from line-outs to tackling. In addition to honing your various skills in the game, it also gives you the opportunity to enter a 5-tier super-season where you will -play matches against a variety of teams, winning your way up to the 5th and final tier.

The main-match gameplay aside, one of the most enjoyable and addictive aspects of this game its 6 distinct training sections, each allowing you to refine your skills in vital areas of the game: Line-outs, Passing, Tackling, Kicking, Advanced Kicking, and Scrums. Each of these training sections is comprised of a flash-based mini-game where you utilise the keyboard to control the finer details of movement such as passing, throwing the ball, catching it, and tackling opponents.

Line-outs are a simple affair that require you to use the spacebar to initiate a throw, while using the arrow keys to make the left, middle, or back men in the line-up jump up in time to catch the ball. The line-up is therefore all about throw power and timing. Passing and tackling take a birds-eye view of the pitch, requiring you to manoeuvre your team in order to either pass the ball or take down the other team by tackling them before they can pass. The kicking and advanced kicking sections are what rugby fans will enjoy most about this game, with the spacebar used to set direction and power of the kick. The scrum section is an endurance test where you need to keep the balance of the scrum by using the Z and X keys.

The match section of the game is simply a culmination of all the above skills that are learnt during training, each strung together to make a full match experience. For a flash game, the graphics are standard flash fodder, with basic textures and instructional overlays that guide you through the necessary controls to play through each aspect of the game. I would say the main appeal here is the inclusion of the 6 mini training sections, each allowing you to pick up skills for the matches, but each being a fun mini-game in of themselves.
