Really Fun Football Sim

I absolutely love that you can play many classic teams in different points of time. That was a huge draw. The arcade-like action with timing your taps is cool and fun. Very enjoyable and challenging. Not any deep historical stats, unfortunately, but that is ok! You can make up your own narrative (commentary) while playing, calling on various players from your favorite teams. My top 2 are Herman Moore, and (of course) Barry Sanders ❤️❄️❄️

Would give it 5 stars but it needs a new update for the 2024 seasons

When will there be a new update especially since it doesn’t even have the teams from the 2021-22 season or the 2022-23 teams and 2023-24 teams

Does the tap make a diff?

I’m curious if the timing of the tap matters.

I’ve played this game many times, randomly tapping at the worst time. Sometimes I win, sometimes I lose. Its like the timing of the tap does NOT matter. Would like to know if this is true?

Would give it 5 stars but it needs a new update

When will there be a new update especially since it doesn’t even have the teams from the 2021-22 season and hopefully it will also have the 2022-23 teams after the SuperBowl

Too fast

Trying to tap to get close to 100% I’d impossible. The bar is on light speed. Lost interest after 3 series. That was 2 series too long.

What could have been...

Love the old school football concept...but absolutely hate the whole tap for success thing. If you’re going to have another go at this, I’d suggest a allocation system instead. You start at 100% each drive, but must decide how much of your energy to allocate each play.

Fun little game!

This is a neat little game that offers offensive and defensive play calling and decent performance differentiation among teams.

On balance, I’ve found the run stats to be high in avg yds per run and the passing game to be a bit stingy with longer gainers. The AI can be off at times, such as the 2007 NYG passing fewer than 10x against the Patriots.

Nevertheless I gave this 5 stars because of the fun factor, fast game play, and choice of teams/seasons. If I keep sneaking in an occasional game before hitting the hay, that’s a pretty good endorsement!

waste

Waste of money, should’ve looked with more detail before I bought. I knew it was simple with the description but this is absurd, you have no access to roster/strategy/formation/coverage or anything, just general play genre. And the tap system is insulting, it completely ruins the point of a football simulator and turns winning and losing into a glorified reflex test that just generates a football play depending on how high a number you get. Don’t waste your money.

Response from developer

I am very sorry you feel that way. The outcome of a play is actually decided by not only the tap but by a total of 6 factors: how good the offense is at running the play called, how good the defense is in defending that play, how many times that play had been called in that game already, how good the defense's play matches the offense's play call and finally the tap and a little bit of luck.
