This article is about an event in Doubutsu Sentai Zyuohger. |
The Blood Game (ブラッドゲーム Buraddo Gēmu) is an event held by the Deathgaliens that is spectated by their owner, Ginis. Its only rule is to amuse Ginis and whoever can do so will be rewarded. The Team Leaders who oversee the Game are the physical-pain lover Azald, emotional-pain lover Quval, and Jagged, who was killed in the initial stage of the Earth Blood Game.
Overview[]
Before the Blood Game can begin, a Player is sent to the planet to do some scouting. The Player who is scouting the area will cause a little bit of destruction and mayhem. The actions will then decide if the planet is worthy to be destroyed or not. Once Ginis decides that the planet is worthy to be destroyed, the Blood Game will start and the Player will begin the destruction on the planet until it is gone. A total of 99 planets have been destroyed as a result of the Game, with the Earth being the 100th target. The current Blood Game is opposed by the Zyuohgers
- Ten of the aforementioned 99 planets were destroyed by the Massacre Machine Gift, which was retired by Ginis due to its use making the Blood Game too one-sided. TV STORY-Ep. 10: The Most Dangerous Game

The Game is played in turns, but if the Team Leader takes too long to find a Player the other one can take advantage by sending their own Players in the meantime.
- Once a Player is defeated, they are given a Continue Medal derived from Ginis's cells by Naria who inserts it into the Player's slot to be grown into a giant.
