Klashball is a futuristic sport where two 5-man teams battle it out in a mix between soccer and American football.
The object of the game is to throw the ball into the opposing team's net. Players carry the ball in their hands as they run around the field. Typical pass and shoot (throw) mechanics are present, along with the ability to "tackle" the opposing player. When this occurs, the tackler comes up with the ball.
After time expires, the team with the most goals wins.
