About this game
CORE GAMEPLAY LOOP
Each play, both teams select a play and up to 1 modifier for the play. After the snap, these plays resolve against each other, taking into account play strength, scheme advantages/disadvantages, Coach/Player perks, and more.
AFTER THE SNAP
Watch the calculation play out in real time, as the bar wavers, and players on-field play out the play.
GAUNTLET MODE - ROGUELIKE CHALLENGE
In Gauntlet mode, you play offense only with increasingly difficult targets and opponents. Improve your deck via adding, removing and upgrading cards.
Build powerful synergies between coach, player, modifier, and relic bonuses!
SEASON MODE - PLAY BOTH SIDES
Build and manage 2 separate decks, offense and defense.
COACHES AND STAR PLAYERS
Coaches and Star Players each have their own bonus effects that will change the way snaps play out.
Unlock new Coaches as you collect achievements in the game!
