This game is so cool! I recieved it for christmas and I have barely ever stopped playing it. One of the funnest parts of the game is that you can design your own custom player and make up names for your own plays. The dances players do after scoring a touchdown are hilarious. This game passes standards that other children's football games do not even try to achieve. If you are looking for a enjoyable, funny, and educational game for your child, this is the one.

Fun game

Boys and girls (and their parents--believe me!) will love this fun, exciting football game from Humongous Entertainment. It features characters familiar from other "Jr. Sports League" series: Easy-going Keisha, lightening-fast Pete, and others of different ages, races, sizes, and abilities.

The action is fast and the selection of plays is great fun (you can also create your own plays!). Passing plays are the most difficult; you might want to encourage your child to focus on running, kicking, and defense, and help him or her with passing. (Our 5-year old eventually got the hang of the whole game). You can set 3 difficulty levels, play a league series culminating in a the "Super-Colossal Cereal Bowl" or play single "pick-up" games, play in preset or random weather conditions, and even make up your own player with different skills (it's fun to name this player after yourself)!

A few complaints: Once again, Pete Wheeler is the athletic, but intellectually challenged kid. I found some of his dialogue offensive--but it offers a good chance to talk with your kids about stereotypes. The compilation of player stats is good, but not as complete as the Baseball game offered by Humongous. A creative and fun addition is the inclusion of several NFL players (including Steve Young, Jerry Rice, Randall Cunningham, Barry Sanders, Brett Favre, and John Elway) as kids playing along with the Jr. Sports League cast. Now, not that I ever play this game, but I recommend Keisha on defense, Pete at running back, Barry Sanders at tight end, Annie as kicker.....

(I also recommend highly the Backyard Baseball Game by Humongous.)

This Series Is Awesome!

I've beaten all the games in the series. They are a whole lot of fun, and great for kids. I love them myself. The charachters are so funny. I especially like Pablo.

Great for ALL ages

This series rules! I like this one the best 'cause it has the most features and I love football. Also,you can choose from pro players and even make your own custom player! You can even change your playbook and create new plays! The only problem is they only have these features in Backyard Football. This game should have 10 stars!

Super Game!

Backyard Football is a very cool game. You can play a real NFL team or a made-up team. You get to play with real NFL players and/or with made-up characters. You can design your own plays or play with the defaults. It is one of the best games I have ever played.

Not just a computor game....

this is a great game. i spent the whole night playing playing it, but i did not beat it. so when i got up in the morning i played the game and beat it with my team, the "silly rams". you can create your own team and make a draft.

bottom line- great game, buy it
