Action Vault
Review by Craig Morrison with screen shots. "The underground action is quite fun when it occurs and does bring a genuine new style of gameplay, but unfortunately, it just doesn't happen often enough with the current rule set, giving the whole affair a rather hollow feel."

WorthPlaying
Review by Mark Crump, with screen shots.
