On Field Football Commodore 64 game

Game category: Commodore 64 games

On-Field Football offers an immersive experience, centered around American Football, where you can compete against the computer or another player while adhering closely to the sport's rules. Before starting a game, you have the flexibility to choose the number of players, opt for a demo game, set the game duration (either 5 or 15 minutes), and decide the style of play for the teams. The game provides a third-person perspective of the field, positioned at an elevated angle, focusing on the action behind the offensive team.

The match begins as soon as the ball is kicked off, and when the receiving player is tackled, strategic decisions come into play. Using the keyboard, you can navigate through different play options – using arrow keys (up, down, left, or right) – and you must make your selection within 30 seconds. Once both teams have finalized their plays, you can take control of either the quarterback (for the offensive team) or a defender (for the defensive team). After the quarterback passes the ball, the player with possession becomes your primary focus, giving you the opportunity to maneuver and make crucial plays. Additionally, you have the ability to punt or kick the ball for extra points or attempt a field goal.
