Description

Be the first to score four touchdowns. Each play is determined by rolling two standard dice and finding the result on a chart. Possible results are touchdowns, gains, sacks, incompletes, interceptions, fumbles, and penalties. Some of the results require the player to flip a special wooden chip, which has a "5" on one side and a "10" on the other, and is used to randomly determine yards gained or lost.

Play is tracked on a wooden board, using pegs to mark the ball and the first down mark on the field, and the current down and number of yards to go down below. Score is kept using a pencil.

The use of pegs makes it a suitable choice for travel. This game, along with others in Channel Craft's Vintage Game Series, comes in a small tin.
