NFL Rivals - Football Game Reviews

by Mr. 12eview

Terrible game, it’s all about money in this game. You’re not rewarded for being good at the game. In order to improve your team you need buy packs with real money. The currency you earn can only buy 3 packs and everything that comes out those packs are the worst overall in the game. Do not download this game it’s awful. Don’t waste your time and money on this game. To the developers and the NFL that made this game, give us more ways to improve our team without spending real money. All the other games are gated by players you need to buy out of the packs. We can literally only play the computer and 1 leaderboard. All the other leaderboard games you need to buy certain packs to get a player that unlocks that. The in game currency you earn is very time consuming to earn as well, and even the games you play against the CPU is capped at 10 and you have to wait 1-hr to get more games. The leaderboard you play vs other people is capped at 5 and you have to wait 3-hrs to get new ones. If you’re lucky enough to unlock the other leader board games those are capped at 5 for 24-hrs and the opponents you play have stacked teams because they paid for their teams. Everything about this mobile game is all about money and hide behind a paywall. The days of just grinding and being good at a game is no longer rewarded.

This game I’ve been playing since beta and it took them 3 weeks to finally get back to me on support. Ignored several emails and by that point affected my ability to compete for one of the biggest prizes to date. Unfortunately doesn’t seem to care about player base only enough to keep the old ones happy. They don’t care if you leave since that’s what most players eventually end up doing. Save your heartache and don’t spend in this game. It’ll take you $500-$1000 to even have a decent team and that won’t even give you the best team. Market fees are 14% when you sell items.. sounds reasonable but adds up when your selling something for a couple hundred. Jonathan is their only support guy on discord and I feel for him, he is around negative complaining people all day so he’s essentially grown numb to it and become passive aggressive. Ignored my discord message for days. And came across as extremely insensitive.

This is a well-designed and fun game. But I will not change from one star until the developers decide to ACTUALLY FINISH their testing before releasing updates. I have lost in game currency after updates due to glitches in the game. More importantly, they make changes to the gameplay WITHOUT giving an option to opt for previous settings. For example, today an update was released and it drastically changed the camera angle (more zoomed in allowing for less field vision) when you have a player running with the ball. The update was made without any ability to change the camera and it is making it much harder for me to win games. TERRIBLE developers and customer service. Great game.

Additionally and more importantly, the game is fun, but I have never played a game where it costs $1000s to be competitive. This one does. Every game has some pay to win aspects, but this game is a ridiculous money grab and I am ashamed I fell for it enough to spend a couple $100

This game is really fun and had me hooked for a while, but as I progress through the game and get to the higher league it doesn’t matter what your opponents power level is. This little thing is the whole reason I’m rating 1 star, otherwise I say it deserves 5. I’m in the professional league v and I am playing others that are very close to my power level at 1,700 total with similar def and offense power levels. Even though they are almost my level for some reason the game makes it out like I’m going against a 2,700 power level and their defense is the best I’ve ever seen in the game. It’s never like this in any of the event matches only now that I’ve been progressing through the league matches that it makes the game too difficult too progress. I’d understand if the opponent I was going up against was 2,100+ power level but these opponents have like 80 more total power level then me. I feel like if my offensive level is over 200 more then their defensive level then I should be able to make a play with out getting sacked within 2 seconds or getting intercepted or simply not being able to complete the pass because the defenders are blankets on my guys🤬. Really do love the game but not being able to progress at all now is pretty annoying.

by MysticalHeart19

The running back and quarterback don’t run fast enough to get past the line of scrimmage and the passing game is terrible. None of the receivers can get open and the defense will jump across the field to block your pass. I was really enjoying the game at first but the next day trying to play was horrible. The beginning of the game is super easy but I kept playing and I’ve been shutout 5 games in a row losing 0-21. Please fix this game it’s absolutely pay to win only giving 60-69 overall players for every pack. Fix the circle concept because that is the worst part of the game especially starting everyone off with a top quarterback that can’t pass accurately five yards in front of him. I’m hoping to reinstall this game within a month with the game being better and winnable without being pay to win.

by Bbrown281

I wanted this game to be fun and enjoyable. It was only that way for the first week or 2. The shop prices keep going up, in terms of gems needed to purchase a pack. And the odds of getting a player to progress your team are pretty much nonexistent once you finish the first week or so. Gameplay isn’t that great, defenders are able to deflect any close passes, defense also has unlimited speed burst. My 101 tyreek hill with a 30 yard lead on the defense will get caught every single time. In all seriousness madden mobile has went downhill over the years but it’s stayed on my phone and been at least semi entertaining for YEARS, this game is getting deleted today after maybe a month. Stick to madden, at least they hand out decent rewards and you can progress there.

by DPyledriver

I can not in good conscience recommend this game to anyone. It seems like a fun and even sometimes addicting game until you start to want to take it seriously. Then, you’re forced into thinking that you should buy a good team and you’ll start winning too. That is a completely false assumption. You could spend thousands of dollars for a team good enough to win but realize that it’s cheaters who are doing all the winning. Several “squads” have found ways to work together in order to exploit glitches in the game. Oddly enough, many of those squads have NFL Rivals employees in them. Do me a favor and screenshot this review. Play the game for a few months and then come back to it. Hopefully you didn’t lose as much money as some people but one things for certain. You can’t say I didn’t warn you.

by CyberCade04

This game at first seems easy and quite enjoyable, but soon you realize it’s all a big scam to get you hooked. You see, the game is entirely pay to win. If you want to get really good players you either have to spend money or play the game but you cannot get to the spot a lot of players are at without spending loads of money. In the game there are people who do the tournaments and who have teams that are so overpowered that there is little chance for new guys to even have a chance at beating them. This makes the tournaments much more hard and less enjoyable for players all around. The game takes forever to progress and for a mobile game that is ridiculous. I believe there is also some balancing issues along with some slight issues in terms of gameplay. The game honestly has a good idea and has potential but the developers just seemed to waste it and make it a cash grab project. Play but don’t pay because they’ll just overload you with offers so you pay more and more.

I started playing a couple of weeks ago. I won the Super bowl when 10 energy for the regular season was available and I received a 95 or so Cooper Kupp plus a couple other 85s and a 90. Ever since then i have obtained little to no progression. 9/10 tournament requirements I do not meet because I don’t have set players (idk what they call them) and If i can get into one every opponent is too high level. Packs are too expensive, not nearly enough rewards even with the new pass, and the regular season hasn’t rewarded me since the update. Also it gets pretty boring playing even 2-3 games in a row after a while. Super pay 2 win and barely any content. The only reason it’s a 2 is because the throwing mechanic is great.

by Woogies Father

I really enjoy the passing mechanic which leaves you feeling that you completed a pass rather than simply pressing the corresponding button for an open receiver as in the Madden franchise. I haven’t enjoyed the pay to play features such as paywalled events which require you to obtain specific types of player in order to participate. Purchasing packs is one way to obtain these players, but mostly ends up being a money pit as you receive constant low end duplicate players. I tired participating in giveaway events through discord and twitter to supplement my team. I was hoping to see what a F2P user could do to supplement their team. After a period of interacting with social media posts to help Rivals with free publicity, my net gain was one mid grade freebie. There could’ve been a second after Rivals X account posted a challenge which promised to reward whichever user who guessed the final score of the ravens/bengals game the closest. I guessed the winner correctly and score within four points only to watch the prize be handed out to some random who was off by double the points. The game limits your competitiveness based on how much you spend and even freebies somehow end up in the hands of the Whales in some effort to placate them.

by T100k

Lots of parts of this game need a rework. A defender should not automatically deflect a pass just because he’s in the passing lane, it’s nearly impossible to make a pass, especially once you add in the absolute randomness of the passing system. If you throw more than 10 yards downfield, the pass ends up halfway across the field 7 times out of 10 with an 86 overall at QB. It doesn’t feel like football, you spend all your time begging the game’s AI to make a block for you (of course not) or give you a catch on a 50/50 ball (more like a 0/100 ball). This is all while theoretically being rated significantly higher than the other team, but somehow your players never actually make plays. RB’s don’t break tackles enough, WR’s dont catch unless they’re wide open and the ball is thrown inside their helmet, the QB’s are not accurate enough to be fun. Please rework the mechanics so this game can be enjoyable without shelling out money.

by Orogen

I gotta give credit here, the game itself, while very grindy, is a decent bundle. Games are fairly quick, things chopped for simplicity aren’t missed, and when you add new players you see and feel the immediate effect. They even have a slick marketplace but buying/selling players where you can earn actual $. HOWEVER, the prize structure for events is just atrocious. Only the top few hundred have a shot at ANYTHING of value meaning you cannot advance your team after only a short while. I’m not sure if the devs are only chasing the largest of whales or they just haven’t expanded the structure with the growing player base but regardless, whether you’re relatively new to the game or have been playing for months, maybe even spent money, you’re in the same bucket - outside the prize pool and grinding for nothing. Even the month-long events where you earn specific currency to purchase special players, there are only a few hundred available so when you actually earn enough, the marketplace is sold out WITHIN SECONDS of refreshing with scant few options left. Beyond frustrating to grind and actuality achieve, but then have nothing left in the marketplace.
Promising start, horrible stewardship and no way the strong player base continues.

by Chrastil

I played this game for quite a while… at first glance, it seems like it’s more based on skill than it is power level (which can be bought). I was glad of this because madden is strictly based on what you can buy. I was beating teams on this platform that had power levels 1,000 points over mine! Then, I decided I was going to buy an upgrade to get a specific quarterback. As soon as I paid the money, those teams that were even 500 points above my own started winning!😡 No matter how careful I was with my quarterback, his passes would leave the circle and fly into the hands of the opposing team. I don’t know if they were bating me to buy a product, or if they changed an algorithm to make winning harder… either way, it’s pretty messed up!

by Threal12

Yall more worried bout the money we spend on the game instead of the game and gameplay itself. I feel like yall just put something together real fast to get some money from us. Like you obviously have to pay to win. And its to over powered to new users cuz i have no chance at getting good packs from the tournaments because you have requirements see wat im saying. I just started the game and every mode i cant play because i have to have required players. If you ask me yall just created a whole scam. Untill this game is updated and fixed im done playing it. Makes no sense. U should stop playing it to if u spend over 100$ on a game app u tripping

by Jerejamn

This game crashes constantly (yes, even with updated software and latest game version)-especially during the games of important events you have to wait to get recharged tickets for. The passing gameplay is pretty awkward, as it’s hardly ever accurate. I’ve also noticed that when you play way better teams, THEIR play isn’t better, yours just gets poorer (eg. Poor blocking, wildly inaccurate throws, quicker fatigue etc). Total CPU simulated gameplay in competition, the player packs are a ripoff and whoever programs this game isn’t at all familiar with how the clock runs or play calling works in the NFL.

by StevenC2004

For the longest time I couldn’t think of a football game endorsed by the NFL could be worse than Madden Mobile but I’ve learned to no longer be surprised.

For starters stats are apparent to mean nothing, it’s rare for 90 overall to even beat their 60 overall man. It’s actually terrible. Don’t even worry about juking or spin moves either they never work and slow you down.

In a NFL game you’d assume you can scramble as a QB right? Well not this one not that the game developers knows how to program a high overall offensive line to actually perform well anyway.

Like every other terrible NFL endorsed game this one is another pay to win game, this game isn’t played to be fun or enjoyed. It’s programmed way to poorly. It’s a cash grab from just another greedy game company.

I could go on, this game is terrible. Its performs poorly, overalls mean absolutely nothing because every play covers the exact same regardless of the overall matchup. The game also tries its best to ensure to not let a tackle take you out of bounds. It’s clear because of the interaction between your player and an invisible wall they clearly hit when getting tackled. Don’t bother with this game. Madden mobile is somehow better.

by Hmmmmm.......

The gameplay is ok. Could use more play choices each time, especially since some of them have a high failure rate, even against easy opponents. Also would be nice to be able to play defense, as the automated defense isn’t all that great unless you play someone terrible.

The for-purchase packs are a complete ripoff, and sadly, it’s not possible to play all the events without making ridiculously-overpriced purchases. The packs you buy with earned currency are absolutely terrible - forget trying to get an awesome team from them. The drop rates for good players are miniscule.

The events are also pretty lame. You get higher points for beating higher-ranked teams, but there’s typically a HUGE power gap between the top 2 choices. And, if you lose, you get nothing, so just wasted one of your limited chances.

Some content doesn’t even work. For instance, how does someone become a squad owner? I’m captain of my squad but I don’t own it. Does that even make sense?

All in all, it’s ok, but not worth spending any money on, and gets boring pretty quickly.

by Zach2598

Squad Ranking Rewards need to be expanded a little further. Being ranked 101 or close to 100, just barely missing out on a lot of Gold, and getting put in the same Tier as every other Squad doesn't seem fair in comparison to Squads that put zero effort forward. Gameplay is very Repetitive and CPU Defenses seldom make plays. I'd like to see more fluid Gameplay mechanics because this game feels very clunky when you play it at times. Endurance needs to be changed from an every play factor to a game-long factor. For example, if you run the ball and your RB gets 40+ yards, starts doing a light jog, and gets tackled short of the goal-line, the next play my RB shouldn't have the Stamina to do that exact same play again with zero consequence. If my Endurance is still fresh at the beginning of the game, some of my speedsters should be able to finish their runs to the Endzone if they break off a big play. Lastly, if Defensive control or Live PvP can ever be added to this game, I feel like it should for a more competitive factor. This is a much better game than Madden NFL Mobile for a quick thrill but there's a lot of work to be done outside of the Team-Building factor.

by XLordVaderX

Very basic game to have the NFL logo attached it has not reached anywhere near its potential and the fact they listed Travis Kelce as a Super Bowl legend is hilarious considering he didn’t have a single reception the entire first half I believe and if he wasn’t with a certain singer then that never would have happened but the prices of stuff in their stores are outrageous and the game is very straight forward in it doesn’t leave any room for imagination my recommendation is save your money for a game like madden or really anything else made in the last 20 years because it’s probably more advanced but if you want something you can play while you have 5 mins free and keep your card number away from them it’s perfectly fine for that also one of the most frustrating things is no way to contact the support in game so hope you never have a problem also if I’m wrong about any of this info let me know and I’ll update my review I’m not a hater just being honest about my experience on it

by Ray_j3

Good game overall but the solo mode brackets make no sense in terms of division winners with proper seeding for the AFC as an NFC team. The NFC bracket makes total sense while the AFC bracket only makes sense for seeding and not division winners. For example, I’m currently playing where the Texans have the 1 seed meaning they won the AFC south but the colts then have the 2 seed and the jags have the 4 seed. 3 teams from the same division can’t have home field advantage. It’s impossible. The 2, 3, and 4 seeds belong to the winners of EACH division depending on record, not just record alone. So that needs fixing, plus, I can’t put any of my players on the mythical market. It doesn’t allow me to quick sell them and prompts me to put them on the mythical marketplace but then doesn’t actually let me. It just says here’s where you would put them but you can’t. Fix these two things and I see nothing else wrong with the game. Maybe besides putting a player up on the marketplace for 99k because that is insane

by SingleDad31

First off let me say that the game and the gameplay itself is fantastic. I’ve had a great time playing and I’ve spent a lot of money because I’ve enjoyed the game so much and it’s been worth it to me. The customer service however gets 1 star from me. They replenish the fuel for the day at 9:00 AM central time. I log on every morning to get my events out of the way to start my day. Last Thursday I logged on to play my events and they did an update. Not an hour before the fuel replenished, not in the middle of the night when the servers had the least amount of traffic, right there in prime time after the fuel replenishes for the day. The game crashed during my event and I lost my fuel. I reached out to customer support immediately asking for my fuel back, and it took them 4 DAYS to investigate and offer me help. By that time the event was over and I had been knocked out of contention for the rewards because my game during update did not register my score. They offered me two rare card packs as compensation for this error, which is not even worth a quarter of what I would of received from winning this legendary event. So before you download this game just know that if they wrong you, they won’t make it right. Not the way they should. Happy playing. For now I am done.

by YNW Quan

I originally like the original game but now this update that happened yesterday I dead don’t like it! It made the game harder to play and the views and graphics way harder to see and stuff I really don’t like it! I will continue to play but I don’t like the update! There are plenty of bugs as seen in the game where the view changes too much and we get too close to the player to view so you don’t know when to dive to get ahead or anything! Also when playing, after you dive and get hit, it now pulls you back and doesn’t pushes you forward a bit now! It makes he game way harder! Also the graphics in the game just isn’t it! It makes it too easy to get an interception I don’t like it at all whatsoever! I prefer the older version and I want it back please and thank you!!!

by Robogal7865

Great game and I have just a couple complaints. First is the fact that there is zero competition, anyone could go 100-0 first try without fail. This makes the game way less fun. It would make it much more fun if you could play against other people or your own friends! Another minor complaint I have is that the running is basically walking and sprinted is speed walking. In other words, SLOOOOOOOOOOW. It would be better if you could actually run. Another thing is that I think it would be. Better if there was a button that you could HOLD DOWN in order to sprint. Thank you for any time you give to these subjects!

by BigRed717

This game is ok. The gameplay is t terrible but could use improvements. The RB almost always have to go to the outsides to even have a chance at gaining yards. The QB can’t run unless you play against the CPU with less than half your strength. The plays get redundant and seem to give you the worst plays over and over again. Some of plays are broken as well as you cannot pull back to throw. It will take 3-5 swipe back and by then you missed the window and get sacked.

Overall it’s obvious the game is focused on the NFT garbage over the gameplay. Even if you spend money you get the same blueprints and players over and over again. I’ve gotten like 8 Justin Herberts, amari coopers, higbees by now for example. Grover Stewart blueprints like 5 times now along with Kings lol. It’s basically not even worth buying packs anymore.

by ChillVibez22

When I played the game the guy can’t run that fast. The receivers can’t catch. You can’t QB sneak. The kicking tool goes way too fast. The blockers are terrible. When you throw a ball to your receiver but it’s somewhat in their reach they just all of a sudden stop and don’t care. Also a quarter shouldn’t last two minutes. It should be 10 max, 5 min. There is a lot of work to be done. I would love to see league play soon! Looking forwards toward the improvement. There should also be an option at the beginning of the game where you can choose heads or tails. This game can’t go forth with kicking off 1st and 3rd quarter.
Also, 2 hours to wait? It should be at least 20-45 minutes. 2 hours is ridiculous.

by Todbus

The game overall is a lot of fun to play. The issues I have are around AI and progression. It seems like there is a fine line between a team you can pound on pretty easily and will only score on one random drive on you and a team the has an all-star at every position on defense who will blanket every route you have available and a d-lineman who racing at you who didn’t get blocked (or blew his blocker up). There doesn’t seem to be much middle ground.
Expanded playbook and maybe team specific playbooks would be nice and the game is SCREAMING for a replay feature. Hope the devs read this. I can’t tell you how many time I wanted to watch something back and maybe in slo-mo (the gameplay is pretty fun)

by ImRonnyy

This game is a lot of fun. It’s like a 3D Retro Bowl with real players. But I have a couple small changes that I think would really help it make it even better. I personally don’t like how every time a defensive player CAN deflect a pass, he does. There’s a lot of times in real life when people dive or jump to deflect a pass and they miss. It would be really nice if it was a chance of them deflecting it when they dive instead of them deflecting it EVERY time. Also I have never seen a receiver make a diving catch. I’ve played the game for a while and I have a 98 overall Justin Jefferson with a 111 Insane Catch and a 112 Catch. He should be able to make a diving catch, yet, it’s never happened. Other than that, like I said, the game is really fun and I’m excited to see the new features they add.

by Mletnau

This game before the upgrade was awesome. Fast paced, current players, great gameplay. It was honestly my favorite game to play on my phone and imo better than madden because you could play a game very quickly and not have to deal with defense but your defense is still important because the better your cards the more often you get a turnover. Ever since the update they took away the solo games and the full seasons. Those were some of the best parts of this game. I have always been able to play this game. There was always an event or a league game to play where I had fuel to play. And when I was done I could play solo games. Now I can play their challenges for 3 mins and be done. So now I have to stop playing this game and do something else because I’m out of things to do. I would have given 5 stars but not being able to play the game is a pretty big flaw in their update.

by Susan D'Anthony

In game, you’re constantly playing offense against computer teams, or other players teams. You never get to play against other people in real time.
Also, when you’re playing season, any team can have a random player on it from the card, it would be cool if you got to play against the actual NFL rosters.
It would also add a fun element to the game if they had the ability to unlock next to your level players by hitting certain statistics with your player. For example, you could unlock it better version of the player by getting “X” touchdowns or “Y” amount of touchdowns.
Last, it would be cool if there was a head to head component of the game where you got to watch the other team, play offense, and you were able to select a defensive play.

by Hdkfndifbeo

So let me just start by saying that this game is fun and a great way to pass time. The gameplay is very fun and interesting. I have a few complaints though. 1) So say you’re on a fast break in this game and you’re trying to juke out a defender and it just takes SO LONG for the juke to initiate, if you know what I mean. There’s also no spin moves which stinks too. 2) You can’t set a difficulty level for the defense, nor can you play defense. 3) This is my biggest complaint. It is SO FREAKING HARD to actually make a half-decent team in this game without paying real money (and I don’t know about you, but I’m not pay to win). It feels like every player about 85+ is like not available to get for free in a pack.
Thank you for reading my review.

by No One 58594939

This game is really fun bet the only thing that I have to say is the the speed of the game is sooooo slow it’s crazy and I’m not even talking about sprinting it’s just running in general also there needs to be more stamina and when you loose all of your stamina is you should be able to regain your stamina because it’s kinda annoying that you loose it and you can’t regain it and you get tackled immediately but overall great game just Spee and stamina is all I have to say Also I kinda want to play defense because I think hit sticking some one in this game would be so fun Sorry last thing I kinda want a better QB scramble option also a career mode or like the yard form madden would be cool

by Dgfegf16

As I have seen from other reviewers, I also stopped playing madden mobile after the auction house went away. It was a huge aspect of the game and I think it would help people, especially younger players, be able to get the players they want without having to pay money or get lucky from store packs. It can also help people build a more well rounded team. I have nearly 90 ovr+ all around but then I look at my tight end and it’s an 83. I’d love to be able to just buy a way better TE from the coins I earned in the game. Outside of the lack of auction house, the game is incredibly fun but it would be a huge boost.

by Only Didndbdbdn

The potential this game has in insane, i love it, but unfortunately ruined if you aren’t spending money. Free to play players can only access the base players in the game that cap at 99 ovr the only way to get none base cards is to spend money. I get that they are NFTs but that just ruins the game for most people. Their needs to be a way you can get non base players without spending money, if they don’t add that this game will die off very quickly from a video game standpoint and be strictly catered to NFTs. Also should add stats/awards in campaign, more modes would be nice as well. Maybe live matches, adding the ability to play defense would make this game way better from a competitive stand point.

by TheWarden2

Add an auction house it will make the game a lot more fun and add more packs that r purchasable with coins. This would be a very nice addition and would improve the game a ton, if u added this ur game would easily be 5 stars for me. I used to love madden mobile until the auctions left. Also stamina and running is a big problem, running backs u just get no blocks or yards. Also needs more way to earn packs other than buying them will real cash or game coins, I say get some inspiration from madden mobile 21 (back in its prime). I rlly hope u read this and consider maybe even add all if not some of these amazing additions for the game I just love the potential this game has to offer.

by Ballsnstuff8

games super fun, but you can’t run the ball because no matter how good the lineman and RB are, you can’t gain yards, so Wide recievers are crucial, i grinded for 2 really good players at random, both happen to be o line, a position that doesn’t matter whether it’s 150 overall or 50 overall, so they are both eye candy while i get clamped by defense, so i was mad and bought a pack to get 3 more good players, and get duplicate d ends and a runningback, so still all this time no recievers so i just can’t pass which is the entire game, therefore might drop it entirely, there shouldn’t be a way to get that robbed….

by Schmidty7482

I love that there’s is a competitive game to Madden Mobile finally! Overall the game is fun, but there are some issues I’d like to see fixed by the official launch this fall…

1) while I enjoy the concept of how to pass; it’s horrible & hardly ever accurate. The dot on the field should be where the ball is going to be thrown to & often times it’s nowhere near that. There’s also plenty of times where the ball hits the receivers hands but he doesn’t catch it. Overall the throwing/catching mechanics need some improvements.

2) all we get for play options is 1 short pass, 1 long pass & 1 run. Give us a full playbook. But please keep the ability to audible/change the play before snapping the ball. That is something EA does not give us.

3) I love being able to sprint. But let us truck as well instead of just dive.

by Nfl Rivals Player

Madden mobile used to be a great game until they removed auction house and I think a great way to keep players engaged is to add an auction house or instead maybe add a trading feature we’re players can trade cards that they collected overtime. If the auction house gets added to an already great game like this It will literally be 10 times better and it’s a very common opinion that auctions should be added to both madden mobile and this.

by Deuce2C0

This game is really awesome. I love playing it and really keeps me entertained. A few problems though. I’m sure me and other players would appreciate this, but I for 1 want more stamina for solo. Five is to low. Either give us more stamina or less wait time for each one. Even better, both. Also I would like to request to be able to get better players than just the base players without paying actual money. Its almost like a pay to win. And I don't like those games. Now, I’m not saying I’m gonna delete this great game, just a chance to get these rare+ players and blueprints without paying money other than game money. This is a great game overall, I really like it and I’m excited for whatever ideas they come up with next! Thank you NFL Rivals!!

by Sam Stamper

A lot of fun to play at first. Gets repetitive running them same 10 or 15 plays every time, though.

Also, I have absolutely no inclination to pay for packs but probably would pay for coins to buy players I want on my team from an auction.

Lastly, probably needs a way to sprint as a QB unless I’m missing something. An achievement is 5 touchdowns by qb sneak but there is no way to do that. Kind of weird.

The first thing ima start with is what’s the point of having a defensive side if you can’t play on it. The second thing is the diving mechanic for the db’s and Lb’s it’s so annoying when they are 10 to 15 yards away and it getting blocked. The last thing is they need to make it so you could set goals for your team so you could get coins. It’s also really hard to get good players without winning the Super Bowl. If the game had these things then it would be five stars but until they change those things then it’s staying four stars.

I’ve been playing this game for about 2 weeks now I have finally unlocked the full game. It has been good gameplay wise and game pass prices are not bad. But the game play needs a faster pace and, it needs better passing odds because I have a 98 ovr Russ and he is sailing 20 yard throws which makes the game less exciting. It also needs a game Sim mode in season game mode because playing so many games gets boring and takes to long to level up. Besides those two I have had a great experience with the game and I think it can give Madden Mobile a great competitor. The devs have done great with it and I will continue to play.

I love the format/idea of this game a lot. I do not normally write reviews but I have high hopes for this game. I bet it will be better then Madden Mobile (dumpster fire of a game now). I will say I would like to see a defense option if possible and stats without a doubt. If it doesn’t work for showing them each season, I suggest doing like Big win football would do. Show the stats over each game and how many games the players have played, super bowls won, conference championships, and overall just ever main statistic for that position. Thank you for reading my rant if you do. Keep up the hard work.

This game is at the peak of success. I love breaking records with my friends, but I think you should be able to play defense too. Another thing is that I personally think you should have too tap, and hold the screen. Another thing is that you should be able to friend your friends on this, and with that you could host 1v1s. Next, I believe you should be able to play against other players with your friend like a 3v3. Next, you should get conditioning points in all games, or make the last level of your player coins, and boost your power to a higher level. Finally I think that when earning players they can be a random level. That’s it thank y’all, and plz add this mythical games.

Overall the gameplay is great but like another gentlemen said it’s insanely ridiculous how much the game packs cost for legendary players they need to be cheaper and easier to get. That would make the experience a lot better. Love the graphics and the gameplay but there needs to be more overtime rules implemented in the overall feel of the game. I love the games are short and sweet. Keep doing what u guys are doing. I love every thing about this game this is by far my fav game. I don’t think there needs to be a change in playing def I like the way its setup. Just make it easier to get legendary cards and maybe make it to where u can link your Facebook to the account so u can trade with people u have on Fb or make trades with. I literally play this game all day everyday. Thank you for everything.

It’s a lot of fun. Maybe a few suggestions. How about some statistics? Football is all about stats. Maybe when playing a full season, don’t have the same teams always ending up in the playoffs. I’ve played 9 Super Bowls and Lions, Bears, Panthers, Commanders, etc. are always bottom of the barrel, and you can’t change your team once you start! Maybe have a better chance at some high end player competitions without having to buy players to sign up? Also, one time a team with a record of 9-8 (not a division winner) beat out a 10-7 team…no biggie, but it’s not right! I’m sure this game will add a bunch of stuff in the long run…and I’m hoping they’ll look at our suggestions. Still, if you love football, you’ll be hooked on this game! Good job, room for improvement.

by Go Rivals

It’s probably the best football game I’ve played so far besides Madden mobile and other games but this game kinda hits at the top also their celebrations are really like funny when they do stuff like that it’s really cool and I just like how the game just like goes and it’s not like hard for you unless you feel like a bad passes up thinking you’re pretty much fin highly recommend this game if you love football orange especially if you’re a football fan

by Z King B

I don’t even care about football. But I tried it out and I am hooked! It’s designed for quick game sessions so I play for about 3/5/10 min and then put it away. Pick it up again multiple times throughout the day. It’s fun!

There is an addictive collection element as well which will keep me coming back long term. I actually watched the NFL Draft for the first time in decades because of this game.

This game is great and still has lots of potential. If there was a way where you could add people as friends and then be able to go against each other and trade your players with each other then this game will be complete. But in order to keep people from receiving overpowered players too early in the game there can be a level cap for which players you can receive depending on your player level. A PVP mode would be great because you will be able to see how good your team really is, and maybe on PVP mode you can play defense. It would make the game better and give it an even more fun experience. One thing you guys should change tho is the chances of catching a dive catch, I haven’t caught that many of them, and I really doubted that it was even possible for it too happen before the first time I caught it. It was months before I actually caught a diving catch. But other than that this game is really cool and I’m looking forward to future big updates, I hope you guys take note of these 3 suggestions, it would really make the game better!

by Mickey2279

I love it, so fun but idk why it has energy where you can only play ten games in say, and hour or more. Also, we kinda need faster progression or more advanced pack buying. You will save up for a week just to get a nobody 67 power offensive line (no disrespect to these players AT ALL) and a wide receiver worse than the ones you have and a 81 power linebacker. Idk still really fun

by K-mo85

So I want to start by sayin thanks right. Now I didn’t think that I be playing a football game so viciously when I get beat by someone whom I have trouble beating, and take it out on another rival grrrr… but I love the it’s awesome the only thing I can think of is to flip plays yk to play the left side of the field or audible play. I like that the game is as short as it is I can play in between breaks, lol I mean hey if you want to put cheerleaders in there I won’t stop you! Thanks!

This game is a little bit different than Madden Mobile and I like it better than Madden Mobile. This is so fun especially for football fans and this game is probably still fun for people who don’t really know football. You get to build your own team, play games against other teams, and many more! As I said love this game, highly recommend downloading because also it is free to play!

by LLuucckkyyBb

Once you fall behind 1 touchdown, the game is pretty much over. The cpu will 10/10 intercept before your own player ever catches one! Then the game just decides when the enemy/cpu scores making it almost impossible to comeback. The game is great and maybe if my “NFL” players learn how to catch a football as good as the cpu I might change my rating…

This is a fun game no doubt. However, this is a crypto game. You can buy and sell cards on the open market. The problem with the game is there is a lot if inside developer card trading. The developers manipulate the market for their own benefit. They sell you packs that can get u better cards. However u can find urself spending alot of money on packs and not get anything. Its too hard for a noob to win any prizes. This game is set up for inside developer trading as well as market manipulation. The developers of this game are playing as well and they are the people who get the best rewards as well as manipulate the marketplace making it harder for noobs. Not worth my time anymore.

by Ronnie2kfired

Idk if a dev will actually ever read this, but the concept of the game is awesome. We all have longed for a game that you can buy and sell nfl player cards with real money. If you tried to do this on other games you would have big issues due to how they deal with ownership of in game content etc.. Whereas in Rivals, the mythic marketplace allows a safe median to buy and sell players and provides an actual real investment opportunity since they have done it right and they are nfts. Devs if i could say one thing. Keep the cards getting rarer by year to truly embrace collector value, and please update and make the gameplay and player models more realistic.- A hopeful player that loves nfl card collecting and gaming

I love this game, it is like a mixture between madden and retro bowl but cartoony. I really love the vibe of this game and big props to the devs. THANK GOD you don’t have to go through the BORING defense drive. If you are looking for a fast paced, fun, and adrenaline rushing game, download this! One flaw though is that it is a little to quick so it can get crazy how much games your flying through so it makes you feel you have been playing for hours even though you don’t not have played for 10mins lol. But anyway I’m pretty sure that any big football fan like me would LOVE this game. Oh and also one more thing, devs, if your reading this I wanna say AMAZING job and I really love the celebration animations.❤️❤️❤️😃😃

This game has many options, including the events, solo, and the league games. People may say that it’s not so great because they do have the very tempting items in the shop to boost your team, but getting good players isn’t that hard and anyone can be in the competition at practically any event. It has surprisingly good graphics and no ads. The only tiny problem I have with it is simply the fact that you only play offense. Other than that, it’s a great game, just like the ads. I recommend that all play it.

by Fggvgvgh

It’s awesome because at the start it lets you just be getting ready to play the game so it’s making you do easy games and then in the middle of the season I haven’t played that yet but I’m guessing that it’s gonna be something like you’re gonna have a little bit of a challenge then maybe after that it’s going to get more and more of a challenge, so yes, I love this game and I’m writing a five star review because I’m telling people that they should get this game. It’s awesome. Another thing is because you can actually pass the one thing I don’t like about it is that you can’t play defense but still it’s a fun game.

by Serious Breeder

I had some issues with this, and it took some time but they have been resolved. For a good team you will need this or uphold. They do not make it easy but it can be done with some time and patience. The game is great, but if you buy players through the game you have a good chance of ending up with 8 running backs and only one of them can play. With kyc you can pick the player you need. Be careful selling your players, even the sad ones, because they have events that only players from the afc East can compete in.

The game is a scam. I rated it 5 stars so more people see this. The chances of getting the rare+ cards necessary to beat whale players’ team are virtually impossible without paying money for the premium currency! There’s less than a 1% chance to get the cards in basic packs that you can get without paying real money. The rare+ cards are also NFTs that can be bought and sold on the game’s inbuilt marketplace and on the developer’s marketplace outside of the game. Only the rare+ cards can be sold on the marketplace as well, unlike the common cards that will be the only type of cards you will most likely ever have. Making squads and becoming the leader of a squad require you to own an nft that can be bought on the developer’s marketplace outside of the game for at least 70$ or be lucky enough for the previous owner of the nft and leader of the squad to quit and leave you as the new leader. It’s also virtually impossible to join a squad because of how poorly the game is designed, since you can’t sort the squads by how many people are in them. Finally, the gameplay is extremely lacking and you can only choose between 3 offensive plays per down, and you can’t even play defense.
