Tecmo Bowl Throwback Released For iPhone

Way back in 1987, Tecmo Bowl was released to arcades. Much loved, it’s fitting that it has received the re-release treatment, for iPhone and iOS platforms! Costing £4.99, you can grab Tecmo Bowl Throwback yourself, from the App Store now! The original Tecmo Bowl game first made its debut in the arcades in 1987 and continued on to the NES and many other consoles as years went by. Tecmo Bowl is considered one of gaming’s timeless classics and paved the way for American Football games on game consoles.

Tecmo Bowl Throwback brings the authentic side-scrolling gameplay of the Tecmo Bowl series to iPhone with intuitive pick-up-and-play controls. Building on the version released for consoles in 2010, the game delivers thirty teams including two All Star squads and three modes ranging from single games to full seasons of Tecmo Bowl football.

Players can freely choose from the 28 regular teams in both single game Preseason mode and full Season mode. In Season mode, gamers choose a favorite team to take the championship as both player and coach. Players can also pick their favorite players from all the teams in the WFC and BFC divisions to create two divisional All Star teams that can be matched up head-to-head for bragging rights in All Star mode.

No matter which mode they choose, fans of the series and new players alike will feel the excitement that only Tecmo Bowl football can bring: side-scrolling gameplay with highly intuitive controls that allow players to have fun while playing to win.
