  • Murderball is a form of game play in first person shooters in which a ball is placed in the middle of the level and all the players fight for control of it. The longer somebody holds on to it, the more points they get.
  • Murderball is also a tennis training game. It is played by teams of three or more. The teams take it in turn to serve the ball. If any player makes a 'mistake' (misses the ball, hits it 'out')then they are 'out' of the game. The winning team is the team with the last man standing. If a team has more than one player 'standing' when the other team are all 'out' then the winner is decided by the winning team splitting up until a winner is found. This game is popular in PE lessons. It can also be called 'Killer'
