Critical reaction

"Your Sinclair" awarded "World Rugby" 72%, praising good presentation the originality of a rugby management game, but criticising the poor graphics in the match highlights. [cite journal |last=Nash |first=Jonathan |year=1993 |month=February |title="World Rugby" review |journal=Your Sinclair |volume= |issue=86 |pages= |id= |url=http://www.ysrnry.co.uk/articles/worldrugbyzep.htm |accessdate= 2007-12-09 |quote=Tragically, the most important and exciting part of the game is reduced to a fair-to-middling graphic of a newsreader with a couple of numbers whizzing around behind his head. Whoops. Eh? ] "Sinclair User" awarded 80%, highlighting the accuracy and range of the player database but advising non-fans of the management genre to stay away. [cite journal |year=1993 |month=April |title="World Rugby" review |journal=Sinclair User |volume= |issue=134 |pages= |id= |quote=...this one is bearable because of the relative accuracy of the teams and the amount of choice in the options. It's also rugby. We really don't need another soccer sim. ]
