Reviews of Retro Bowl

  • Love it but wish there could be more things

    I love the game but it just feels the same thing every single time you play. Ok so I rated this game based of of playing and I have played this game for like 2 or 3 years and there is nothing new like when can you add challenge flags or even flags in general plus why must the game never have any cool stuff like when will cometary be a thing we’ll never mind anyway why can’t there be a my career mode like why must this game be the same and I play on extreme and I’m still getting a perfect season like I have went up against New England 10 times so far in the nfl and please add an extra do you want to trade the player and I feel like the trade button doesn’t give you a trade and I feel like if there is a player you put in the hall of fame then you should be able to sine them but there contracts are more expensive plus I feel like if you have more than 20 rings I feel like your character gets like bonas cc like you could get 100 rings and nothing would happen plus I hate how character’s contracts go up every time there contracts are ending like I feel like they should ad a button that is 50/50 of lowering the price please add some of these changes plus I bout the expansion to you make my roster bigger and change the teams color and that stuff but It didn’t work so I just lost money so please just give me the expansion I paid for it😡😡😑😑
  • Penalties

    I love this game soooo much and I love all the stats and effort put into the game to make it so fun. The only suggestion I would have would for there to be flags every once and a while on a player and then that call could affect the rest of the game. I think it would add even more depth into the game so my suggestion is to add penalties but other than that this game is incredible. 2 more things. Secondly, I think you should be able to call timeouts on defense, and when you do they get a boost for 1 in-game minute, so there is strategy behind the calling of timeouts. Lastly I think it would be really fun to add multiplayer across different devices so you can play against a friend on separate devices. Definitely 5 stars. And the fact that the unlimited version is only 99 cents and it adds a ton of really cool features, just blows my mind. (And don't forget that this game has no ads besides the other games that this developer has made. Great game. This is a later edit, but I also think it would make more sense to have players get injured in the middle of the game like they are on the ground and people come out to help him instead of telling you at the end of the game because sometimes I throw to someone on the last play of the game and he is fine and then right after the game he is injured. It also might be a cool thing that adds depth to the game.
  • What I think

    I feel like overall the game is really good I feel like #2 football game in the App Store obviously behind madden but I prefer this game I like everything is has to offer with hopes there’s more updates in the future I feel like the game is fun but it’s missing something to me I feel like star players make a difference but you can’t really do any moves I feel like qb scramble could definitely get more interesting I don’t like how you can’t play defense it’s almost pointless to get defensive players to me overall I feel like gameplay is my biggest problem I’m waiting for some massive update or something where this game will dominate the app market The off-season is also very cool wish there was more to the draft process and I wish free agency was a thing I think the coaches kinda make a difference maybe let’s higher rank coaches have access to different plays or something to make it feel like they actually matter outside a buff or upgrade In conclusion I feel like this is a really fun game and I will continue to play it hopefully this game becomes more of a complete football but as of now still think this a good quality game

    Also I feel like trading is fun I wish you could trade your own picks for other teams players or picks and make the game more competitive

    I get it’s a fast paced game but I wouldn’t mind it slowing down for better quality
