Judge Dredd (board game)

Judge Dredd is an adaptation of British comic Judge Dredd in which each player becomes a Judge attempting to arrest a wild variety of foes for crimes ranging from selling old comics to murder.[1]

Richard Meadows reviewed Judge Dredd for White Dwarf No. 35 (also published by GW), giving it an overall rating of 9 out of 10, and stated that "Judge Dredd is a good game for some light relaxation for both Dredd fans and those who have never heard of him. It is admirably successful in its aims: it doesn't set out to be a game of deep skills and great complexity; it sets out to be simple, playable and as enjoyable as reading your favourite comic book - and if Judge Dredd is your favourite comic-book hero, so much the better."[2]

Paul Cockburn reviewed Judge Dredd for Imagine magazine, and called it "a fine game, with excellent opportunities for player inter-action and fine balance. If you like mayhem, this has to be a winner".[3]

Steve Jackson reviewed Judge Dredd in Space Gamer No. 67.[1] Jackson commented that "If you're a Judge Dredd fan, you'll buy it no matter what the reviews say, so be comforted; you will like it. In fact, it works both ways; I became a fan after reading through the game. If you don't read Judge Dredd, you might still enjoy it as a beer-and-pretzels game (albeit a long one), if you can handle the steep imported price tag."[1]
