Description Edit | History

Football Fever is a football game which uses various shapes and color dice to call plays and conduct all aspects of a football game.

It comes in a case with a built-in playing field and scoreboard, clock as well as yardage, ball and down markers along with pegs to note time, quarter, time outs. There are compartments to hold various dice for reference during the course of the game.

The deluxe version has a heavy-duty case covered in brown plastic simulated leather, complete with metal closures and a carrying handle.

There are four defense dice; block (black), run (orange), pass (yellow), blitz (red); six offense dice; 5 scrimmage dice (orange) and a bomb die (black). Also, there are separate die for extra point (grey), field goal (brown), onside kick (green), kick-off (blue), kick-return (blue), punt-return (white), punt (white), option die (red), an in/out die (black) and a referee die (white). The dice are different shapes, sides and colors and provide an interesting visual look while the game dice are laid out.

11 Football Fever rules
Since I've had a number of requests for the rules to this fantastic game from 1982. I enjoy playing it tremendously, and with the variety of dice that are used in the play it really simulates a game of football fairly well. Since the game has long been out of print and a lot of folks are picking up the game used without any rulebook, I scanned the instruction manual and uploaded it here.
