Somewhere along the line, Bloodlines was the name substituted for Tribal, perhaps because it sounded more gutsy and the game has nothing really do with tribes.

In the distant future, when all distinct cultures and individuality have been banned by the government, a group of rebellious punks fights to preserve what is left of their uniquely mixed cultural identity and style. The band of outcasts have rediscovered an ancient ritual combat, which takes them to distant places, battling amongst themselves in a series of abandoned arenas, in order to find their champion of champions.

Blood Lines is about running, evading, chasing, tackling, smart thinking and good timing... and with the aid of a Multi Tap, it's mayhem.

Select a character from the eleven available. Game modes include Arcade, Challenge, Vs Battle and a Party mode. There are three difficulty levels, an option to play with 'Big Heads', while activating Panic mode allows players to run faster and generate quicker and stronger power-ups and power-moves at any given moment.

  Manufacturer's description:

Set in the future, competitive sport is outlawed and becomes the persuit of an underground network of the world's greatest athletes. Inspired by the nations of old, they form clans and engage each other in tribal combat to protect the honour of their blood-lines. There can be only one winner...

Control one of the clans, and fight to the death in a last-man-standing battle against multiple opponents. The environments allow for roaming and hiding, allowing you to tactically attack and run away to evade attack. Weapons can be found, used and recharged across the arena.

The gameplay functions in the same way as Super Smash Brothers: Melee, and works better in multiplayer mode than against CPU opponents.
