Hey there football fans! In our last post we laid out the basics of FootBored. Are you ready to take your FootBored game to the next level? Today, we’re getting into the nitty-gritty of the special plays that can make or break your game.
Trick Play
First up, let’s talk about the Trick Play. This play is like a wild card – you only get one per shuffle and it can either give you a touchdown or cause a turnover. So, use it wisely! You have a 1 in 6 chance of getting a Long Run with a 5-yard bonus, Long Pass with a 5-yard bonus, a 4x Multiplier, a -3x Multiplier, a 15-yard penalty, or a Big Play.
Hail Mary
Next, we have the Hail Mary. This play is for when you’re in a tight spot, so be careful! You get three per half and two per overtime period. Roll the die and you have a 1 in 6 chance of getting a 0-yard gain, 20-yard gain, 40-yard gain, Touchdown, Big Sack, or an interception.
Same Play
If you and your opponent choose the Same Play, don’t worry, a coin flip will settle it. If it’s heads, you’ll enter the Same Play mechanism. Depending on the card drawn, you’ll either have a Big Play for offense or defense, a 3x or 0x Multiplier, a 0x or -3x Multiplier, a turnover or no gain.
Big Play
And finally, the Big Play. This play is always a win for whoever receives it. If you’re on offense, you have a 1 in 2 chance of a 25-yard gain, a 1 in 3 chance of a 40-yard gain or half the distance to the endzone (whichever is more), and a 1 in 6 chance of a touchdown. On defense, you have a 1 in 2 chance of a 10-yard penalty, a 1 in 3 chance of a turnover with a return of 25 yards, and a 1 in 6 chance of a defensive touchdown.
