A sport game using a license of the American wrestling federation WWF. The title does not try to realistically represent the reality of the discipline. It is a strongly inspired by the first parts of the Mortal Kombat loose variation on the theme of ring fights.
An arcade sports game prepared by Sculptured Software, loosely based on the license of the World Wrestling Federation. The title is considered a sequel to WWF WrestleMania: The Arcade Game.
Mechanics
WWF in Your House enables us to contril ten different fighters - well known from professional rings. Violent clashes between celebrities such as Owen Hart, The Undertaker, Shawn Michaels, and The Ultimate Warrior. Each of them has a unique set of special attacks and blows, often using supernormal abilities or magical powers. The battles take place in arenas connected with particular wrestlers, e.g. in a crypt or a nightclub.
The mechanics used in the game are based on well-known solutions. The devs divided the attacks into four types - light and strong punches and light and strong kicks. Appropriate key combinations enable us to use the holds. Each of the wrestlers also has their own combo, which is executed after charging a special bar.
The devs have prepared several game modes. Depending on the chosen module and tournament, the selected fighter has to deal with a different number of opponents before reaching the final triumph.
Technical aspects
WWF in Your House resembles visually the first installment of the Mortal Kombat series - it is characterized by digitized figures of wrestlers. The battles are commented on by Vince McMahon and Curt Henning, i.e. commentators associated by fans of the discipline.
