About Breakaway Football
A fast-paced game of Offense and Defense play-calling, Breakaway Football recreates the excitement of big league American football with no dice, no spinners, and no charts to cross-reference. Using the innovative "Game Day Deck" mechanic, random events are built into the core action in balance with the player strategy. Best of all, action in each play resolves in seconds. Call the right play and achieve a breakaway play on Offense for a big gain. On Defense, your breakaway guarantees no gain and can even cause a turnover. You make your own good fortune through skillful countering of your opponent's moves. Thwart their strategy and breakaway to victory!
