What is Retro Bowl?

American football simulator, mobile game Retro Bowl is perfect for sports fans and is adapted for match control on a smartphone. The gameplay is designed in a unique retro style, where you get your team and can fully take control of the whole old-school process. 8-bit graphics and a deep tactical process allow you to manage the team directly on the field. Simple controls and the performance of all team management duties allow you to participate in the development of each player individually. Monitor the physical and moral state of your star team and independently assign kickers for each match separately.

Features:

  • Retro-style game with pixel graphics and 80s music.
  • Minimalist interface creates an old-school feel.

  • In-game control during matches.
  • Career mode.

Whether you can lead your team to the coveted winning match and win the cup depends only on your patience and skill on the field.
