Football Game gets you with it dark screens and moody atmosphere that is reminiscent of Twin Peaks and other mystery series while it is set in the 1980s and features cars and other things from that time. Sometimes it's hard to see the objects because it's so dark on the screen, but you get used to it pretty fast and enjoy it for the atmosphere. The portraits of the talking characters get the job done but somehow look strange, but this fits the strange mood of the game. The music by Jupiter C is really great and sets the tone of the game while the soundeffects are fitting but rather sparse. The story is somehow predictable but the way it unfolds works great and makes you want to find out more all the time, so this is done right.
