It has been played every year since Year 2 during the 23rd day of gathering
For a full transcript you can read the Neopedia article here
Gormball is a game where a ball filled with water is passed around a circle of 8 players
In the pass the ball bursts open and water spills all over the person holding the ball!
The longer the ball is passed around, the more likely the ball will burst
You can practice any time of the year for 20 neopoints per play
The Opponents
|
Thyassa the Chia
He may seem cute, and playful, but he is not. Thyassa is the most devious Gormball player ever on the face of Neopia. Ranked #1 in the world, and undefeated in all major championships. This Chia is one to be reckoned with |
|
Brian the Scorchio
Brian has been known to cheat... just watch him, his eyebrows start to twitch when he is thinking of new ways to win unfairly! Currently ranked #41 in the world, he bears the shame of being kicked out of last worlds Gormball championships for using a rigged ball |
|
Gargarox Isafuhlarg
When he isn't compacting lovely gourmet food into easy to swallow nutrient pills, Gargarox loves to play Gormball. His cafe 'Grundos' supplies all the catering for the major championships |
|
Farvin III, Alien Aisha
From a long long way away (a REALLY long way), the Alien Aishas have landed and set up shop in Neopia. They use their interstellar powers to play a mean game of Gormball. Six ears are certainly better than two, for they use their extra sensory hearing to judge just exactly when that ball is going to blow |
|
Ember the Fire Faerie
All the other faeries mocked her when she said she wanted to compete in the Annual Gormball Championships, but Ember didnt care. What did those silly girls know anyway? Blessing pets, casting spells, all that is BOOOORING! She has her mind focused on the task, nothing can distract her... the championship will be hers |
|
Zargrold the Cool Grundo
Well, hey, you know... its Gormball isnt it, easy... piece of cake. Its not the winning or the losing that I care about, its just taking part, oh... and winning all those magical items |
|
Ursula the Usul
For six years I have been alone now, training at the top of Mount Usalin. I have reached the pinnacle of my studies and now nobody can defeat me. For me, Gormball is the point of existence, it flows through me, into my veins, binding me together. My studies will pay off, oh yes, there will be only one winner this year... Ursula Usul |
|
Kevin the Korbat
Kevin has stepped in at the last minute, replacing Dr. Sloth who had to ... erm.. do something elsewhere He isn't that good, but he is a great learner |

Game Hints
If the gormball has been passed around more than 4 times without exploding do only a few seconds
However if it has gone around only once or twice you are safe to do 3 seconds
ONLY click 4 seconds if you start with the gormball ... NEVER click 5 seconds
