why you should check it out:
a loving tribute to a 16 bit classic. the game plays like a mix of nfl blitz with the attitude of duke nukem. its certainly odd, yet a grand old time. developers still support the game years after release.
why you should NOT check it out:
some cringey of-the-time dialogue and the game ultimately lacks the in depth modes. cutscenes, while funny, occur a bit too often.
thanks, mutant football league, for the despair:
if you go to their official website you're prompted for your birth date, which it then flashes your age at you to remind you of your impeding dread.
