Very fun and simple. Nice job.
We're a veteran to the game of over 5 years. 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? We'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 us wrong. That's why we played it and you can meet other people. As you get more competitive though, it'll all bite you in the butt. We gave it 3 stars for being fun. Would we do it all over again? No. We wasted time and money to reach the top, literally the top, and the game screws you over backwards and forwards. We'd pass and play a different game.
Its a very good game. We do have a suggestion for a new game would you make a baseball game in this format style please and thank you.
Ive been playing for a couple of years. Many changes, some good and some bad. The game continues to evolve and Im confident that the game issues will be resolved.
Amazing game, love the offensive side of the game, however, we do feel that defenses are too easy to beat, a primary component of this is that you cant 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.
Its pretty good we think it could use a better auction house and stuff be touched up a little.
This game could be really good if the developers have it more attention. It gets like 2 updates a year. We like playing it, but with a few changes this game could be something great.
Ive been playing for a couple of years and we love the game. The problem is that our compadres are quitting because of how expensive the game has gotten in order to be competitive. In addition, were not seeing the new players stick around long because they start out at such high levels that its impossible to be competitive unless (again) you spend hundreds of dollars. You see where this is going.
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 us 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.
Screen cutting off around camera.
Can you make a basketball game because lots of people love it. Its also fun The way you made touchdown manger was great.could you add a mode were you could play.
DEVELOPERS PLZ READ Its a relatively fun game right now. Easy to play, and nice to do when you have a few minutes. However we do have some issues that would make this game more fun. Although it already is pretty good. For one our main is issue is when your playing games youve got one defensive formation, and three offensive formations, and only one run play and one pass play for each. Now we know we can go to advanced to setting and change who we 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. Our only other reccomendation is to be able to buy recruiting points with money, but have them be very expensive (because we know you need people to watch the ads). Other then those two things great game.
We used to play this game quite a bit on our 6s, eventually we fell out of it. We had the urge to download this game again but it doesnt fit the screen for our iPhone XR. Also a major issue is once you stop playing the game itll take awhile just to get back to a regular team. We have RBs playing OL because we dont have enough, TEs playing DL, and WRs playing DB. At least until the screen issue is fixed, we will not be playing this game.
The game is boring, vague, and feels as though it was created by people who dont 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. Ive read through the forums and there seems to be an overwhelming opinion that the developers have basically abandoned this game. Like we previously stated, the game concept has potential but it needs to be in better hands.
This is a very fun and addictive app. We 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 we dont like is the way players can be acquired and let go. It reeked of being fixed by the developers to generate cash. Im not against paying for a good game, but this affects how Im able to play the game too much. So we have to say goodbye. Thanks for the fun and enjoy the money youve gotten from us, because you will not be getting anymore.
Bought 2 little 5$ limited time packages and got an error and never received our items.
Time flies when your playing this fun game.
We think the idea and game itself is great, however we would love to see some leagues made up so that players can trade and have a draft much like the NFL. Other than that, we love it.
Dis is da best game evaaaarrrrrrrr so plz download we wood recommend to all dem football lovers. AND GO DALLAS COWBOYS.
Good game here. As much depth as you want, or you can just stick with the defaults. As others have mentioned there are some football oddities – like having your kicker on the kick return team – but none get in the way of gameplay.
Very enjoyable game, it's a little hard to figure out how to set up your team but join a good guild.
We really like this one. It is a time based game with enough football to make you want to dive back in right away. There are a few wonky things – strange player included in special teams, for example – but overall it feels enough like football to work. The system is well set up for people to join in and progress up the ranks without constantly getting creamed by the top teams. Definitely worth the download and the time play. We hope they look to add to this one and create more games in the future.
Fun to play when commercials are on during MNF.
Like the game but it's rigged bad. When you try to sell an elite player you don't get crap for it but if you were to buy the same player it would cost you a fortune.
We linked our Facebook account and now when we try to load the game we just get a problem with Facebook ID error and it won't let us play..please see if you can fix this we were really enjoying it.
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.
Probably just downloaded some sketchy virus.
Great game for our son and we to play.
Our only hope is the community gets bigger. Very addictive and strategic.
Nice way to spend a few minutes here, few minutes there. Enjoy the build.
We enjoy this game. The actual matches need some fixing. But a fun game over all.
This is a very great game! The only suggestion we would make to the auction block is a "buy now" price. Kind of like what they do in Madden. We are not a huge fan of waiting hours and hours just to lose a guy becauseI was sleeping and couldn't auction.
What did you do with the creation of the sports shop. Now we can not even compete with a lesser team let alone with an equally matched one. This is a huge mistake. You have now made this game terrible. This is the dumbest thing that you could have ever done. Thanks for nothing.
Really interesting but to move ahead quickly you still have to pay! We get it, everyone needs to make money! Pretty fun and so far no real issues.
We play this game more than most of our others on our phone.
Good, but we wish you could call your plays in fourth down or for the PAT. Sometimes we want to punt/go for it and sometimes we don't, but the game always decides for us.
This is a fun game if you take your time.
Y'all need to add buying a player and need to make it able to move WR and TE to different places for new plays. But It's a great game. Keep the good work.
This is probably the best, deepest football coach sim on iOS right now. Needs option plays. Needs more control over defense. Needs more formations on both the offensive and defensive sides of the ball. The kicking game is a mess. Often you will see a LB handle the kick. The play editor is good, but your plays can often end up with the ball on the ground due to bad handoffs or laterals need a practice field to see how the plays work before putting them into the games. Still, lots of free fun to be had and our hope is that the details will be tightened up in future updates.
Not a bad game , it's the same as a million others but with a football theme.
Needs work. Players get injured way to easily. Can never get out of a game without at least one injury. Very frustrating.
Love the game is very fun the only thing we see that needs to be changed is text size to small to read.
Very entertaining game. Wish to chat with others playing.
Only just started playing it but finding it very entertaining and deep.
Definitely has potential. Its a work in progress. Hopefully developers institute a global chat or something better to communicate within the game.
Hopefully with a few updates, this could be an awesome game. It's ok for now.
Don't waste your time. Awful. And mostly everything is way too tiny to read, even on an iPhone plus model.
