## Description
_Gormball_ is an online game available for registered users on the virtual
pet website Neopets. In this luck-based strategy game, eight competitors (one
of them controlled by the human player) stand in a circle, tossing the
Gormball to the next person in line. The longer a player holds onto a
Gormball, the more points they score – but they also take a greater risk: the
Gormball explodes at random intervals, and the player who holds it at that
moment is out of the game.
Occasionally during the game, the player randomly receives free bonus points.
The game ends once the Gormball explodes on the human player, or once all the
opponents are gone. Once the game is over, the player is awarded Neopoints
(the Neopets currency) for the score he’s gained. If the player is the last
one standing, he receives a large bonus, such as Neopoints or items.
