Bottom line - the game is HEAVILY geared to make you spend money. If you want to build a town to max, it will literally take you years and years to accomplish. You have to spend money to make reasonable progress. Here's the kick in the balls of it all. Let's say you spend your hard earned money, which you have to to compete in guilds, etc. If you know the settings well, you can easily beat teams 5 or even 10 levels higher. It's just a scam to get you excited about the game. Truth is, if you go through all the hard work to reach the top 2 levels, the AI changes. Suddenly, teams that were higher level and you beat on a regular basis. Now they beat you. It literally happens the moment you're at the same level. It's all just to get you to buy players, hoping it will resolve the issue. The AI is garbage to begin with. Currently, the QB does some ridiculous 40-50 yard backwards pass, catches the ball himself, and you lose huge chucks of yards. What is that all about? I've seen these glitches many times over the years. You can't run the ball at higher levels. Forget it. You have to pass or you'll surely lose every game. It's a very fun game, don't get me wrong. That's why I played it and you can meet other people. As you get more competitive though, it'll all bite you in the butt. I gave it 3 stars for being fun. Would I do it all over again? No. I wasted time and money to reach the top, literally the top, and the game screws you over backwards and forwards. I'd pass and play a different game. ### 4/5 — Great Game, one minor complaint though *2021-10-17* Amazing game, love the offensive side of the game, however, I do feel that defenses are too easy to beat, a primary component of this is that you can’t tell your defenses what to do but instead, they just do something random, the ability to tell defenses who or where to cover would be a great improvement to the games immersion ### 2/5 — The game is dying a slow death *2020-06-05* I’ve been playing for a couple of years and I love the game. The problem is that my compadres are quitting because of how expensive the game has gotten in order to be competitive. In addition, we’re not seeing the new players stick around long because they start out at such high levels that it’s impossible to be competitive unless (again) you spend hundreds of dollars. You see where this is going... ### 3/5 — Needs more attention *2020-04-24* This game could be really good if the developers have it more attention. It gets like 2 updates a year. I like playing it, but with a few changes this game could be something great ### 4/5 — Could use a update *2020-04-21* It’s pretty good I think it could use a better auction house and stuff be touched up a little ### 2/5 — It’s... okay *2019-10-12, version 7.21* Been playing this game for a few years.starts out fun competing for players in the auction house and watching your little dots go to battle for the team. But then you start getting into the late game when you reach the high tiers and all of a sudden the players in the auction house pretty much vanish, there may be 15-20 players in the entire auction house. This to me seems like their way to get you to buy one of their $4.99 packages they sell so you can stay competitive. Game could go from a 2 star to a 5 star if they fixed that issue. ### 3/5 — Please Fix for iPhone X XR and XS *2019-05-15, version 7.15* Screen cutting off around camera ### 4/5 — Potential to be great, but not quite there *2018-09-28* DEVELOPERS PLZ READ It’s a relatively fun game right now. Easy to play, and nice to do when you have a few minutes. However I do have some issues that would make this game more fun. Although it already is pretty good. For one my main is issue is when your playing games you’ve got one defensive formation, and three offensive formations, and only one run play and one pass play for each. Now I know I can go to advanced to setting and change who I hand it too, or throw to, but it takes away a lot of strategy. It would be nice if you unlocked one new play for each formation each time you level up your strategy center. My only other reccomendation is to be able to buy recruiting points with money, but have them be very expensive (because I know you need people to watch the ads). Other then those two things great game! ### 4/5 — Really promising *2018-08-17* There are still a few quirks to sort out, but the potential here is really exciting and worth checking out. Building out all aspects of your franchise is great fun, and the game can only keep on improving. Better control of your lineups (especially special teams - having your kicker on kick returns is weird), and more ways to acquire players are probably the most pressing improvements needed, followed by better league tools and features. As the NFL season approaches, more people should be playing which should make things more fun (and challenging) as well. I recommend getting in early and getting the jump on your future league mates! ### 4/5 — Fun Football App *2018-05-17* This is a very fun and addictive app. I love a lot of the elements of this game. The strategy you can change during the game, the plays that can be developed and the building all lends itself to an immersive gaming experience. What I don’t like is the way players can be acquired and let go. It reeked of being fixed by the developers to generate cash. I’m not against paying for a good game, but this affects how I’m able to play the game too much. So I have to say goodbye. Thanks for the fun and enjoy the money you’ve gotten from me, because you will not be getting anymore. ### 3/5 — Bitte in deutscher Sprache 🙏 *2018-04-11* Wäre es in deutsch hätte es alle Sterne verdient … ### 4/5 — Ganz gut *2018-02-09* Lovely Game ### 2/5 — Warum wird als Sprache Deutsch angegeben wenn es die nicht gibt. *2018-01-13* Leider kein Deutsch obwohl es in der Beschreibung steht. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Need to update for newer iPhones *2019-01-12* I used to play this game quite a bit on my 6s, eventually I fell out of it. I had the urge to download this game again but it doesn’t fit the screen for my iPhone XR. Also a major issue is once you stop playing the game it’ll take awhile just to get back to a regular team. I have RB’s playing OL because I don’t have enough, TE’s playing DL, and WR’s playing DB. At least until the screen issue is fixed, I will not be playing this game. ### 1/5 — No Need To Waste Your Time *2018-11-11* The game is boring, vague, and feels as though it was created by people who don’t understand the game of football. The concept of the game has potential but the game needs a complete overhaul by people who have a better comprehension of American football. I’ve read through the forums and there seems to be an overwhelming opinion that the developers have basically abandoned this game. Like I previously stated, the game concept has potential but it needs to be in better hands. ### 1/5 — immer noch kein Deutsch *2018-09-30* wird angegeben das Deutsch funktioniert ist aber nicht ### 1/5 — Geldschnederei & schlecht programmiert *2018-03-11* Ich spiele mittlerweile schon länger. Habe mir dann und wann mal einen Spieler gekauft. Gekaufte Spieler bringen nicht. Ich verliere sogar gegen Gegner die gerade mal zwei Drittel meiner Stärke haben. Einen Gegner in meiner Stärke habe ich noch nie geschlagen. Ich vermute mal, damit man immer noch einen Spieler käuflich erwirbt. Beim Kauf stürzt die App auch gerne ab, was zur Folge hat das man bezahlt aber keinen Gegenwert erhält. Ich bin sehr enttäuscht! ### 1/5 — Awful customer support *2018-02-15* The game is decent, it’s pretty much pay to win. The customer service is bad. I purchased a bundle, they charged me twice and I never received the bundle. 24hours on and I’ve still not got the bundle. ### 1/5 — Scammed *2018-02-14* Bought 2 little 5$ limited time packages and got an error and never received my items ### 1/5 — InApp-Käufe gehen nicht, Geld weg - kein Content bekommen *2018-02-07* Geiles Spiel, meine Euphorie wurde aber gestoppt als ich heute zum ersten Mal über den InApp-Kauf ein Paket zu kaufen. Mir wurde das Geld auch abgezogen, aber einen Gegenwert in Form des Paketes der Wahl bekam ich nicht. Ich bin stinksauer!!! ### 1/5 — please *2018-01-06* make fr patch please ### 1/5 — Update 6.7 *2017-10-13* Update nicht zu gebrauchen, crashed jedes mal bei der Auswahl eines Offensivspielzuges (Error 1009) ### 1/5 — Hi *2017-08-14, version 6.61* It is ok it need a lot more plays.on both sides and you can't kick any FG too.irt could be.a lot better please fix it ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — M *2023-03-06, version 7.50* Very fun and simple.

Many changes, some good and some bad. The game continues to evolve and I’m confident that the game issues will be resolved. ### 5/5 — Fast Risers! 💪 *2019-03-30, version 7.15* Fast Risers 💪 ### 5/5 — Basketball *2019-02-07, version 7.06* Can you make a basketball game because lots of people love it. It’s also fun The way you made touchdown manger was great.could you add a mode were you could play ### 5/5 — Bon jeu de management *2018-02-09* Bon jeu de management qui permet d’avancer sans payer. Je joue depuis 1 semaine donc a voir avec la difficulté grandissante mais sinon très fluide et bien orchestré ### 5/5 — Très bon jeu *2018-01-28* Gestion et foot ### 5/5 — Great *2018-01-11, version 6.72* Great ### 5/5 — Superbe *2018-01-06* Pour ceux qui connaissent top Eleven c’est un peu le même style mais en version football américain je le conseil --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
