Rumble is a fast-paced game of superhero combat, with players secretly allocating energy points to attack and defense, attempting to outguess their opponents and knock them out of the game.

Heroes are imbued with original super-powers invented by the players at the start of each game (or selected from the online archive) - each power affects the basic bidding rules, with endless possibilities.

Rumble is a game for any number of people, and can be played face-to-face (writing powers onto blank index cards and tracking energy with beads and coins, or pens and paper), online through any form of instant messenger, or through email. A Rumble Arena mailing list has been set up to help people arrange moderated games through email.
