Win a Pizza Playing Fantasy Football
Fantasy football games are very common these days, and very popular. The App Store has quite a few of them, and people of all ages are fond of playing them. Let's face it; football is one of the most popular sports on the planet so it's not surprising to games like this would be popular. Most of these games are pretty similar, with a few differences in the details. There isn't a lot to choose between them - at least until now. Box Score is a bit of a game changer. This game uses pizza slices arranged in a pizza pie as a sort of game board to track your fantasy football statistics. It's definitely different.
The best iPhone apps for live sportsAs interesting and fun as this game is there are some drawbacks. For one thing, it will only work if you live in the United States as the free pizza prizes that they have to offer are provided by Papa John's. This is a very popular pizza restaurant in the United States, but isn't really found outside of the United States. The only other real issue I had with this app is that the writing sometimes overlaps the logos, and it's hard to read. Other than that the user interface is actually quite friendly and easy to use. There's a helpful how to play section if you're not sure how the game works, and this is easily accessible from the menu icon in the top right corner. This app will require 39.5MB of available space on your iOS device.
How to Play
When you first open the app you'll be presented with different game options. You can choose between NFL games, or college games. To choose a game you simply tap on the view button located next to the game information. The app automatically assigns different statistics to your slices of pizza pie. For example in one slice you may be required to have Florida complete 85 yards in passing, and in another slice you might be required to have Alabama achieve 35 rushing yards. Once the statistics in each of your slices of pie have been achieved by the respective teams, that slice of pie will fill-in. If your pizza fills completely within the game you will win a free pizza from Papa John's. How is this not already on our Hot apps list?
