### 4/5 — Surprisingly Fun

*2025-01-20, version 1.96*

Though it’s tough to see and to interact with on an iPhone 12!

### 3/5 — fun concept

*2023-12-25, version 1.96*

need defense mode

### 3/5 — No lifetime stats?

*2018-09-11, version 1.88*

iPad version ( the version I play ) has LIFETIME STATS!

Why are they removed from this game? LAME!!!

### 4/5 — Cool game!

*2014-01-26, version 1.85*

Love the game, really enjoy playing. Similar to an early Atari arcade game. Wish we had the option to play defense and keep score.

### 2/5 — Far too simple

*2014-01-20, version 1.85*

A great game that *looked* like this (back in the 80's), called Gridiron, was a FULL Football game/simulator.  It had offensive and defensive formations... And a good ai to play against.

This is nothing close to that.  The ai is virtually non-existent... The game is NOT football, but is simply styled after it.  No downs, no penalties, no playing defense, no opposing team scores, thus no winner.

It's sad when a 2014  game has its butt kicked by a game that is 20 years old.

### 4/5 — fun game

*2013-01-13, version 1.85*

Fun and distracting game.  Love the simple play and ability to design plays.

PLEASE consider making this into actual football game (I.e. playing offense and defense vs. a high score game).

### 4/5 — One complaint

*2012-12-06, version 1.85*

Doesn't support iPhone 5 screen size.

### 3/5 — 2 Player

*2011-12-30, version 1.8*

A two player game would be great where you alternate who is on offense. Would probably bump it up to a 5 star.

### 4/5 — AMAZING

*2011-11-08, version 1.7*

amazing but please add a defence mode that would make it 5 stars

### 4/5 — Fun and simple

*2011-10-23, version 1.6*

It's fun and you really get into it if you'r trying to beat the high score. I'm currently #1 woot woot! :-) I would like to see difficult settings in updates. To keep it simple just make the x's faster on harder settings. The score should be different depending on the difficulty. Overall pretty cool.

### 4/5 — Fun

*2011-10-22, version 1.6*

It would be so much better if it was actually a full game with offense, defense, and special teams and it kept score

### 4/5 — Defense

*2011-10-18, version 1.6*

This game is really fun but it would be so much better if u can play defense too for example swiping the d-line where to rush, the linebackers where to fill and the defensive backs where to cover.

### 5/5 — pls answer back

*2023-08-22, version 1.96*

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2013-01-27, version 1.85*

Look, the sky is the limit. I'm telling you this is one of the best apps I've ever played. It should be in the top 10 easy. The developers (you) need to update this app please. There is so much variation that you can add with just a little bit of work, and if money's the issue I'm willing to make a donation (not an investment deal)
Please update or preferred improve this app.
Thanks.

### 5/5 — Playbook

*2011-10-16, version 1.6*

A cool feature would be to draw out plays before game. Create playbook feature.

This game is so addicting and lots of fun.  Love the ability to draw plays, and shake off tackles.

### 5/5 — Fun and Addictive!

*2011-09-22, version 1.2*

The latest version of the game is pretty addictive! I love the new formations and tap to break tackle. Thanks so much for the fast updates and taking our suggestions into consideration. 

Keep up the great work.
