It’s the same game that was released back in 98 or 99 except that they changed the 31 NFL teams (Texans weren’t a team yet) and Brett Farve got his name changed to “Chase Downfield” and lost his jersey #.

If you played this as a child, you’re going to like it. The only issue I had was the conrtols as it is an emulation of the original game, so it uses the mouse feature. there are two players, but I haven’t figured out how to do that. So I give it four stars as […]

I love the game. Brings me back to my childhood. I do wish they made the controls easier on the phone, as well as added more players. Biggest issue: crashes often, at least once a day.

I love the Backyard Sports franchise and I’m so glad it’s making a comeback. App works as expected on my Samsung Galaxy S21+ without issue. No data collection, just good ol backyard football.
