1.On the opening game screen, use the Select button to choose a 1-player or 2-player game. If you choose to play a 1-player game, you can now choose between skill levels Pro and All Star. Play with 6 defensive players in the Pro level or 7 defensive players in the All Star level. The All Star level is more difficult than Pro. Press the Start button to begin the game.

2.Player 1 controls the Home Team and player 2 controls the Visiting Team.

3.The game starts at the 20 yard line. There are four simulated 15-minute quarters (each quarter is equal to 2.5 real minutes).

4.Before each play, a Play Selector Manual appears on the screen. There are a total of 4 different plays (Run, Pass, Field Goal and Punt) to choose from depending on the game situation. Push the A button to choose your plays. You can choose to run or pass at anytime during the game. Field Goal can be selected at anytime during the game, except during the first play following the start of the game and after halftime. Punt can only be selected on the 4th down.

5.The offensive team has 4 Downs, or chances, to move the ball 10 yards, at which time he is awarded a 1st Down and begins the sequence of 4 attempts to move the ball another 10 yards. If the offense fails to advance 10 yards within 4 Downs, the ball is turned over to the other team.

6.Run Play: When you are on offense, you control the Ball Carrier and the other player controls the defensive players. The Ball Carrier and two Blockers always move in formation. Use the directional disc to move the Ball Carrier and the defensive players.
