Great to have the game on mobile after all these years. I understand that we can't have the NFL logos, but it seems like a big oversight to not include the colors for those teams. In one of the trailers you can see the Broncos orange and blue on players in the game so that feels a little misleading. Hopefully they can patch those colors in for the future. Still a great game just disappointing. Also "Chase Downfield" is a great touch.

I remember when I was around 8 years old, my family and I would go to our small town's library to do our schoolwork (we have been homeschooled our whole lives). There on the computers was this game. Of course, the NFL won't let Playground use the logos and teams anymore, but hats off to the devs for preserving this game and making it available to mobile users. I've purchased this game on 2 devices just to support the devs.

Its great to be able to go back and experience Backyard Football again. It seems like the game was just ripped directly off the original disk, and not in a good way. The controls are still clearly designed for someone using a computer mouse, and are not nearly as smooth as I would expect from an app made in 2025. Edited

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 think some people will struggle with controls.

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.
