This is a game of pushing and shoving where you attempt to shove opposing pieces off the board and into your treasure stash. The game allows for 2-4 players (though only 2-player games are rated) and supports the Overloaded variant, where pieces exert a force equal to their strength.

| goulo | 2 | Nice simple rules, and the board situation becomes more complex and interesting as the game progresses. |
| invisiblejon | 2 | |
| Lexicon | 2 | |
| nycavri | 2 | Simple rules mask an abstract with some depth and great visual appeal. |
| RocketMan | 2 | What makes this game great is its "whomp" factor and just enough strategic depth. |

| Cerulean | 1 | In 2P, this is a resource management game. Much more chaotic in multiplayer (which makes it fun!) Notable use of the board edge. |

| Draw5PlayAll | 1 | Good strategy, though I prefer 2P, and I did not catch the fine print the first time |

| megamau | 1 | I don't know why I like this game.....it doesn't seem to be fun, but nevertheless I go back to it again and again |
| neilb | 1 | Fun and intriguing so far, though wondering how often it gets into repetitive cycles. |

| Hedge_o_Matic | 0 | There's something about this game that makes me think that, with a bit of analysis, it'd be proven broken. Still, it's fun in a group. |
| Laurie_Menke | 0 | Though the second-player advantage is fairly strong, this is still an enjoyable game, in my book. The movement mechanism is fun, and made even more so by the title. I can't seem to play without saying, "Blam!" out loud. ;oD |
| molnar | 0 | Didn't dislike it, but didn't have anything that would bring me back for more either. |
| Orl | 0 | cool mechanics, interesting choices, yet too repetitive. |
| Personman | 0 | |
| unic | 0 | I can't quite get a grasp of this game... need to play it more. |
| aanno | -1 | |
| Zotmeister | -1 | A game presumably about aggression but is actually almost entirely defense-based. That never makes for a good game, and this is no exception. The Overloaded variant makes things a bit more tenable. |
