Retro Bowl is an 8-bit-styled American football video game developed by New Star Games for the iPhone and Android operating systems. A browser version is also officially available on the websites Poki and Kongregate.
Retro Bowl was heavily influenced by the Tecmo Bowl series. Retro Bowl was the most downloaded app on Apple's App Store in late 2021. Following the success of Retro Bowl, the programmers released the organization's football video game Retro Goal in June 2021.
In
retro bowl, the player oversees the group's violation while also serving as its general manager. The game also includes aspects of running an American football team, such as dealing and releasing players, authorizing free agents, keeping morale, composing players, and much more. All teams are based on real-life NFL teams, however because only EA holds the NFL license for the actual teams and players, Retro Bowl creates a similar jersey to the team and uses the city's name instead of the team's name, avoiding copyright violations.
