Retro Bowl College for Positive User Reviews
✓ Almost there!I give five stars just because you did a college game. Here are some more ideas. When an FCS team plays an FBS team, the FCS team should automatically be downgraded as it is highly unlikely although it does happen that an FCS team does beat an FBS team. Prepare for conference realignment as the PAC 12 is about to disappear so customization is needed. Would be great if we could do that on our own. Making a schedule creator could be useful but just for the team you control. You should be able to start with the team you want to play instead of playing a different program then hope a job offer comes through. Need more spaces for team names. 12 college football playoff begins next year so that needs to be implemented. Overall loving the game! Thanks guys. I know you will make it even better..Version: 0.8.15
✓ Finish the TrifectaRetro Bowl RB College RB CFL (coming soon?).Version: 0.8.15
✓ How do you change team?The game is great and so entertaining to play. But I am in season 7 at USF and I haven’t gotten a single job offer even though I have had lots of winning seasons and also have won the American championship and the spice bowl last season but still no offers. I would really like if I could move to a team in like a better conference but I never get a single offer?. I am still unsure where i would find offers as well?.Version: 0.8.19
✓ YesAmazing game I’m really surprised only right now 5 people have the game.Version: 0.8.10
✓ Great game but a few critiquesI consider this game better than the origional retro bowl, however, there are three things that i eould love to see added in the near future. Sim game option, abilities, and a more relaxed GPA system, first of all i think that sim game should come back from the original retro bowl,However, i would like to see a new adition called an Ability, basically something special about the player ranging from valedictorian that makes it easy for them to keep their gpa up to cheetah that increases their speed stat past the normal threshold. This is an ambitious ask but i feel that would let this game take a major leap and intrest people who got bored of the original retro bowl to trysomething new. My 3rd and final ask is a relaxed GPA system, it seems like all my star players need to be benched every other game just so they won’t be suspended. Those are some ideas goodbye devs of NewStar..Version: 0.8.10
✓ Great game! But one problem…My experience with this game has been AWESOME. But it also has been a little frustrating. The best parts of this game is that the developers put the time and effort to actually include gpa,majors,and hobby’s which I thought was awesome. Also they included about every school that has a football team, even the minor ones. the one major problem though that I have had with this game is that half the time I don’t know what some teams are. Like for example LSU has just like the full name in and it’s not just LSU. So it takes time to go through and change very single team name to what they are exposed to be which I haven’t taken the time to do yet. But besides that one problem this game is already one of my favorite games and I am only probably two hours in. I already like it more then retro bowl. Besides that one problem this is a five star game and I highly recommend that you buy it..Version: 0.8.12
✓ Great Game, small issuesFirst off, I love all of the “Retro” games you all have made. The depth of these simple mechanic games are incredible. I’ll probably never go back to the original Retro Bowl after playing this version. I don’t mind the GPA mechanic. It’s not hard to work around that. I never spent points in the original retro bowl on players so now I actually have to for GPA. I’d rather more focus go into how the rankings work each week. For example I started at Vandy and I played Georgia week 7. Both undefeated me #14 and Georgia #1. I beat them and Georgia remained #1 the following week while I only climbed to #7. I’ve noticed lots of rankings are weird like a 3 loss bama team or Penn St. will still be top 5-6 and one loss teams will barely be in the top 10. I’d recommend applying some tweaks there. It really breaks the immersion of the game. Also if a team doesn’t play in their conference championship at the end of the season it should hurt their ranking for the playoff. 3 loss bama shouldn’t be the #4 team in the playoff when they didn’t even play in their own conf championship. Again, these are small issues and I love the game just ideas for how you could continue to tweak it..Version: 0.8.15
✓ Obviously amazing game but here are some suggestionsI really have a lot of fun with this game and the pros version of this game. But my suggestions is to find a way in both games to make extending the OC and DC contracts mean something. In both games I have never resigned a coordinator because I feel no difference in the plays my offense is calling when I have a 3 star OC vs a .5 star OC. I’m sure there’s a lot of people suggesting this but yea it would be great to find a way to play defense. Although I see how it would be hard to do that with the mechanics of this game. Maybe add a way to change the uniform colors lol. My local college has like pink uniforms in this game instead of thief maroon color. Plus our in state rival is not wearing anything close to what they wear in real life. It’s kinda hard to get used to. It be nice if we could alter the colors of the unis or if you did a update on the accuracy of uniforms..Version: 0.8.15
✓ Needs improvementsSolid 3.5 stars but im rounding up. I have some pretty solid issues. My largest hope is that you could include a weight for the successful teams in real life. I hate Alabama, but they have been in the real life CFP 7/8 times. In my saved game, bama has been the bottom of the SEC since i got “hired” into the conference. Ive faced Rutgers in the CFP 3 times now. Thats so dumb. Fix it, please. I can get over all the other issues with that one fixed. It doesn't have to be super accurate, just the big boys we’re used to seeing. Georgia, Bama, Michigan, Ohio State… ect. It would be nice to see more of those teams come through undefeated or close to. That way I can crush their dreams! Also, i think it would be super easy to have the end zone show the name of the home teams university. This would be huge. Please add that..Version: 0.8.19
✓ I love itFirst off this game is so fun especially for making you start on a team you don’t like to feel what it’s like irl but there is a few things I would think would make the game the best game in the App Store. First I think they should add flags or something similar cause it kinda makes it not realistic. Second I would love if they would let you choose to be a coach or player. Lastly I would absolutely love if they more people and the guys that are not star players are still names and I would also love if they would add more people on a team for free cause 10 people is just not good enough for me I would like the real number of players in the game. but other than that I absolutely love this game and would play it if I were you.Version: 0.8.15
✓ Massive improvement on the original…but slowImproves on the nfl version in basically every way, but menus and load times take forever compared to retro bowl and goal. Very frustrating. Simming through a game is also no longer an option..Version: 0.8.10
✓ Great game, minor improvements always possibleLove the game, I play it for literally hours every day, there just needs to be more variations with the receiving patterns. You can always complete a pass if you just throw it to a wr behind his db. Also running the ball is virtually useless, they should buff running the ball..Version: 0.8.19
✓ Retro bowl collegeI got to second year and it was super different from the first retro bowl it’s a different game once you get to second year it goes CRAZY!! Mom hates I play this at DINNER AND SCHOOL. Instead of EATING AND LEARNING STUFF..Version: 0.8.10
✓ Odd UniformsFor me Arkansas is purple and Miss. State is red. Florida plays with a yellow helmet and all sorts. I don’t want to be forced to purchase the team editor to solve this. Other than that loved retro bowl and love this as well.Version: 0.8.12
✓ Freezes Often on MacThanks.Version: 0.8.15
✓ More teamsFirst off Retro college is amazing I just have one issue I can’t use Oregon My parents won’t let me pay money on the unlimited version so I can’t pick Oregon at the start And I don’t want to have to wait until I win like it five times. I just want there to be freedom of any team to use AT THE START!.Version: 0.8.19
✓ QuestionI’m enjoying the game so far but can you make it so we can simulate matches?.Version: 0.8.12
✓ Love!This game got me laid for the first time!.Version: 0.8.19
✓ Retro Bowl HockeyMake a Hockey game next..Version: 0.8.19
✓ A Great Game! But…Retro Bowl College is a fun and addictive football game that is almost identical to the original Retro Bowl, but with a college football theme. The gameplay is simple but challenging, and the pixel art graphics are charming. One of the things I love most about Retro Bowl College is the team customization options. You can choose your team's name, colors, and uniforms. You can also recruit players and manage your roster. This is a great feature for fans of college football, as it allows you to build your dream team. Another thing I enjoy about Retro Bowl College is the sense of progression. As you win games, you earn money that can be used to upgrade your stadium, training facilities, and staff. You can also use money to recruit better players. This sense of progression helps to keep the game interesting and engaging. However, there are a few things that Retro Bowl College could improve on. First, the game could use more variety in terms of gameplay. For example, it would be nice to be able to call custom plays or edit players' personal info. Additionally, the game could use custom sliders to allow players to adjust the difficulty level to their liking. Overall, Retro Bowl College is a great game for fans of college football. It is simple to learn but challenging to master. The team customization options are excellent, and there is a good sense of progression. However, the game could improve by adding more variety to the gameplay and custom sliders..Version: 0.8.9
✓ Almost great gameI have played the original retro bowl for 2 years and I was excited that this came out because I wanted a college one. Before it came out I made my own college version in the original retro bowl and it took me at least a month and I got all the jerseys down I even looked up all the hex codes to make it perfect and I was expecting the college jersey to be right and their not for example, LSU is light purple and gold “very light”, Indiana has orange jerseys and blue jerseys, and auburn is blue and yellow? I could fix it on my own but that would only fix my problem and not other peoples. Secondly where’s the transfer portal or NIL? It would make it more fun and more interesting. You should be able to hire recruiters to go scout areas like south east, central, north and all that stuff. You should add new faces to the RB college and regular RB..Version: 0.8.12
✓ Hoping this helps us get closer to a single player careerI’ve enjoyed the entire retro series and with over 300 hours of playtime on retro bowl and retro bowl college i (among others) have patiently waited on any confirmation on a single player control career. other than that i’ve loved every second of gameplay, especially the frequent updates to slight bugs such as odd AI behaviour. only wish i have is if team editor from one RB game transfer to the other as i’ve bought one and thought restoring purchase on the second would work..Version: 0.8.15
✓ Almost PerfectI loved playing retro bowl and I personally bought the dlc so I could customize all the pro teams into colleges and made my college back in the day. When I saw that this game came out, I was very excited, and I was even more excited when I realized my school was in there: Virginia Military Institute. I was amazed by the amount of detail that went into this, it refers to the athletes as cadets while you play as VMI and it even rather than saying juniors or seniors it says 2nd class and 1st class cadets. That’s going above and beyond and I didn’t expect to see that level of detail. HOWEVER, you get the tiny details right but miss out on some very large things. For instant; the school is listed as Virginia Military Academy instead of Institute, and the shorter version provided is VAM instead of VMI. Also our arch enemy in football, The Citadel, isn’t in there (which is funny but I’m sad we can’t play them) I’ll just say that if the name gets fixed I’d come back and give 5 stars instead of 4, it’s a really fun game..Version: 0.8.19
✓ Very goodVery good very niceeeeee very good very nice.Version: 0.8.10
✓ HiIt’s a good game.Version: 0.8.19
✓ Great game to freshen up some retro football! But…This game is would say is definitely better than Retro Bowl. Even though I still like the original, this college edition is much more complex with rankings, and playoffs. However I have been playing this game for the past few days and I just finished a season and then closed out of the game. Before I closed out was the picture of my team showing that I won conference. Once I went back into the app, that particular game would not load and said there was an error and closed out the app. I would like to now out the developers could somehow fix this since I was starting to become committed to that save. So if you ca n look at this problem.. that would be great. Thanks..Version: 0.8.10
✓ Well manSo basically you have to buy team editor to play as note damn wich is think is just very dumb.Version: 0.8.15
✓ Love the game!I am a huge fan of the original retro bowl and this game is no different. If I could suggest 2 or 3 tweaks though. I don’t know if it’s possible but possibly a way to redshirt a freshman would be nice. Also if the team jerseys could be completed and made more accurate it would fix my OCD when selecting the team jerseys. Finally the thing I have more of an issue with is after a game, having to almost exclusively discipline 2 or 3 players makes it very hard to keep the moral up. I like the feature and I think it makes it more authentic to a college team, but maybe just dial it back a bit, or give an option to resolve instead of just discipline or ignore. Those things being said, I still love the game and I really like the differences implemented to make it stand out from the original game!.Version: 0.8.9
✓ Overall greatI love the game but the Provo team is purple and it’s blue in real life also it’s BYU Provo.Version: 0.8.12
✓ This game needs a little help by me. If you see this, please read it.plzzz ❗️❗️❗️🥹🥹First of all the amount of time to play should be increased to five minutes on both Retro Bowl college and Retro Bowl. second We need new routes. and last make it so that we can customize the field like if you press a team it should say customize field, and then you can draw things on the field.Version: 0.9.1
✓ Great GameThis probably sounds stupid, but could you do a retro bowl where your the PLAYER and not the head coach, I know it sounds weird but it could be fun, and also a cfl mode would be nice in the other games too.Version: 0.8.12
✓ Transfer portalI love this game a lot! I’m not one to rave about games but this one is great, I only think the transfer portal would be a great addition. Mid season when a player is down or someone is cut for being toxic a player from a “minor” school would be a great alternative!.Version: 0.8.12
✓ Love gameNo ads and very fun.Version: 0.8.19
✓ I love this game but,I love this game but, there are a couple major things missing, 1: A rivalry system, I know it may be complicated but if there could be something maybe in the team editor where you can assign a rival, and then the last week you play that rival should be a must in any college football game, 2: a transfer portal, I’m sure this is on the way but during the offseason you can select player that want to play for you with CC just like free agency, but only during the offseason, it’s not a necessary thing to add but it would be a great addition to give a team a boost, 3: finally, whenever player go to the draft and you over fill you scholarship fund I think it would be nice to receive some reward so what is for every 5k or 10k over the scholarship fund you go you get 1-2 CC to give incentives to have players declare early and give the player more chance to improve the facilities or raise the scholarship fund. Those are just some ideas I think would add a great deal to the game but still a great game, highly recommended to anyone.Version: 0.8.12
✓ Great game with small things to fixI’ve been a fan of the bowl games for as long as I can remember and the developers are usually pretty good at making adjustments. College football is definitely a bit harder to manage due to the huge amount of teams, locations, bowls, rankings, standings, etc. I really do hope they can make it work because it’s ones of the best mobile games in our time. Issues I’ve noticed: ranking system is weird, doesn’t make sense at times; a lot of teams with the wrong names, and school colors (team editor helped for my favorite team); no way to maintain players GPA levels other than spending a lot of credits player by player each time (Maybe add option for investing in overall Academics); Other aspects missing is actual recruiting work not just admissions; the Transfer portal similar to Free agents in NFL version; having the name of the city or team in the end zone; other team being able to stop the clock with their own time outs; show the final top 4 teams in bracket form; finally implement some type of way to play defense and control my defensive stars. Great work to the whole team that has worked on this project. Hope it can continue to grow with a lot of support..Version: 0.8.15
✓ Perfect Football Game for iOSLove all the Retro games, and this one is just as good. So much fun, and the more depth to the game is just going to make it even better. I’d like some more depth and features, just some ideas below: - more uniform customisation - ability to edit stadiums, turf, end zone patterns to make away games feel away. - transfers, redshirt, scouting HS players early - Playbook options, I.e be a run first team, vertical passing, etc etc. - cleats, tape, adds a bit more personality to players..Version: 0.8.19
✓ Best app ever! PERIOD!!!If it weren’t for the original Retro Bowl, with its simplicity reminiscent of the late-‘80s that makes it 8-bit retro, this would be just that, but the rivalry is afoot! If not for New Stars Soccer—the developer’s other soccer game, which would be incredible if played in landscape mode, instead of portrait—I’d recommend the graphics be altered a bit to be more like the 16-bit Commodore Amiga-/Atari ST-style mid-‘80s player/manager sports games that became popular on those computers, with their Genesis-esque graphics/play and their keyboard-and-mouse management. Having played that game for a couple hundred hours, I spent the buck on Team Editor features as soon as the tutorial—which is good, even for RB vets, to learn how all the RBAA rules and college structure affect management and play—was finished....Version: 0.8.19
✓ Great But…The game is great, but why can’t my defensive players get any stat other than tackles? I had a 4 star DLinemen for all 4 years and he ended up being a 5 star by the end of his college career. Yet he did not have 1 sack or any stat other than tackles.Version: 0.8.19
✓ Great gameSimilar to retro bowl but with an extra twist, more off field issues with players which makes it a little harder. Overall really good game, would recommend..Version: 0.8.15
✓ Awesome game, but needs some fixes/improvementsSo, like many on this one, came from the NCAA 14 Revamped community. It’s GREAT. Completely worth downloading and buying if you choose to. The game play is easy to learn, the features are good for what I’d expect in a mobile game. And it fits the retro football aspect like it’s other versions. Great: game play, teams, features, college feel. Suggestions: the biggest thing that frustrates me so far is as you get hired by a new team, you don’t get that new teams “ratings”. You have to start completely over in your upgrades, which seems dumb if you are getting a “promotion”. Went from a good b12 team that was top 10 2 years in a row, to defending champ Georgia that was top rated offense/defense and upgrades. When i joined, i was disappointed to see 2* offense/defense and minimum program upgrades. It makes you not want to move schools essentially because you have to start over. Also, the recruiting is more of just “free agency” than recruiting. I think recruiting needs to be redone to actually do some recruiting. Follow same style as other things where you have to make decisions that affect your team, but it does it for your recruits. The pay to recruit is rough cause any good player is going to take up most of your budget. Pretty odd system.Version: 0.8.10
✓ Great game - minor changesThe game is great and I love the new features compared to the original retro bowl, although it would be nice to add something new to the gameplay such as being able to play on defence or having flags. It would also be great if you could see how your player is going once they reach the nfl, when they are tagged in the yearbook. For example it could say that they made rookie of the year or something. Overall, great game..Version: 0.8.12
✓ A Must For College Football FansLet me just say I love College Football, and Retro Bowl is great, and Retro Bowl College builds on that legacy, but there are some problems. First off their are some uniforms that don’t match the teams at all like Florida, also there is a 2nd alternate uniform but it always just some placeholder for what could be there, and I know I could buy the unlimited version and customize but I really just don’t think it is fair to have someone buy that just to change a uniform. Another thing is that there is no transfer portal at all, and I think this game really needs that. My final thing is that I wish it would let you start as your favorite team, now someone else already said this but I like how you have to build your legacy, but at the same time I just want to play as my favorite team. In conclusion this is still a great Retro Bowl spinoff but there are things you can change, but the game has only been out for a week so I think everything I listed or some of it will come to the actual game..Version: 0.8.12
✓ Great gameI think the game and graphics are great, I just with that accurate uniforms were included.Version: 0.8.19
✓ FantasticThis game is amazing but all I think that this game really needs is a way to connect a save from this game to retro bowl original and I also think it needs sim game.Version: 0.8.15
✓ Great Game ; one problemEverything about the game is amazing and I love it … but there’s one minor detail that’s pretty crucial (in my opinion) the colors. Yeah there 250 teams but I’m pretty sure auburn isn’t yellow and blue. For Georgia that got the red but they used dark red witch is fine but then Mississippi state is bright red, that’s not ok. I know it doesn’t matter or change much but it’s just straight up wrong. There is a solution to this which is customizing each team for 1$ which I will do but it’s just a little update that I’d like. The game’s amazing and I’m sorry for complaining about the color of the team it’s just the little things … and my ocd but that’s beside the point. Thanks for making a collage version of retro bowl and keep on doing what your doing. Also can there be more then one touchdown emote..Version: 0.8.12
✓ A great additionLoved retro bowl. Played 200+ seasons with it ! This is different as you recruit players. Lose them to the NFL and can move your career up and up with better jobs in better leagues. Find it tricky that you can’t just sign FAs like the NFl Retro bowl A few bugs though. When I access my head coach stats an error popup appears and the game crashes..Version: 0.8.10
✓ This game is great but minor improvements would make it amazingFirst of all, this game is great. But it lacks some big parts of realism on college football. In-season recruiting-I cannot express how much this feature needs to be added. Due to having to cut a player mid season for partying and etc. I believe there should be a scouting/recruiting portal in the admin/facility page. In this portal, you will see seniors, maybe juniors in high school who have interest in your school. You can spend coaching credits to make them more interested into coming to your program. Once the interest level becomes full, the high school player will commit to your program. Even you don’t want to spend coaching credits, you should be able to scout players so you know what is coming from the freshman class of next year. For example, if my running back is a junior and wants to declare for the draft early, you can go to the recruiting portal and see if there is good running back prospect that you have scouted or players that are committed to you, if you indeed do have good running backs for next years freshman class, I would let them declare early. If not, then I would ask them to stay another year. Also a helpful attribute to have would be the ability to sim games like in the original retro bowl. Overall a great game, but I believe with a recruiting portal, things would get a whole lot better..Version: 0.8.15
✓ Great game but could be betterThe original retro bowl was and still is an amazing game. As soon as I saw this game come out, I downloaded it immediately hoping for it to be identical to the original. However, when I got into the game I realized some major differences. First of all, there is no sim button which could help make the season go by faster instead of playing all 14 games. Second, there is no way to get players mid season. In real college football, players can transfer teams. This would be a major feature that could help season progression. Finally, the GPA system is a little bit weird. It keep all of your players in a game every week, you have to spend your credits to keep them in the game. I feel that you should only have to use your coins on a player once or twice every other season. Overall, this is a great game and I am glad that it is finally out. Some things could be better but in the future this game will grow immaculately..Version: 0.8.12
✓ Great game! I also have some suggestions for the devs.Ok first of A transfer portal which I know might be hard to make it would be sorta like the free agent portal in OG retro bowl. Second off please add rivals because well the only thing about it is that there would be some fun and challenging games. Third add a thing where if you know Oklahoma and Texas is joining the SEC in 2024 so if you have premium in team edit you can move teams to different divisions. Fourth add commitments because there should be commits in the early season so you know who is good that wants to be with you. Fifth add a thing if you have premium you can make the playoffs bigger example the FBS is expanding to a 12 team playoff next year so yeah. Well that’s all just if you see this reply and hopefully some of my ideas will be considered! Bye!.Version: 0.8.15
✓ Awkward mechanics in the gameFirst off I love this game I have always liked cfb better than the nfl but have been disappointed in just a few aspects. First off I like how the game doesn’t let you pick the specific team and have you build up to get that offer, I have been an Ohio State fan for my whole life and the fact that I have to build up was kinda interesting but way too time consuming as it took me 9 straight seasons of winning the major to get me that offer. Second I think gpa was an interesting twist but I got my players gpa from a 1 to a 3 using coaching credits in the meeting and he still is benched? Finally I think it’s interesting how its much more difficult to become ridiculously overpowered because you 5 star players wont reach their potential by the time they’re out of college. I also think its weird how some jerseys are completely inaccurate since the teams don’t violate copy right, why was this not an issue in the original game, if you don’t know what I am talking about for example university of Illinois’ uniform is purple and yellow instead of the navy and orange, the indiana hoosiers are also like a texas orange instead of the dark red.Version: 0.8.12
✓ Near perfectThe game is such a fun sequel to the original retro bowl, but there are just enough differences to make it a noticeably different experience. I think more players leaving during their Junior Years could be an interesting addition, as well as the installation of a transfer portal feature. The in-game sprite comparison between the original RB and RBC seems extremely odd- I took screenshots of my Colorado QB from RBC when he’s throwing and my custom team’s QB from RB when he’s throwing and the difference is very noticeable. The Retrobowl in-game sprites look more built and full, while the college sprites look like they’re starving. The college qb’s arm is one pixel thick! I’d love to see a mix of the sprites in the college game- maybe have the star players have the original sprite? I’m no game developer. Another complaint is a stupid one, but when I see a college like Northern Iowa called NIU instead of UNI on the scoreboard just bugs me- same with Southern California not being called USC. I wish having the premium in the original retrobowl would transfer over to the college experience, but I could understand why it wouldn’t be..Version: 0.8.12
✓ RThis game improved my ability to peel oranges.Version: 0.8.12
✓ Love the game but having a bugOne of my favourite games. Unfortunately I’m having a bug where I can never access the store. I would like to purchase the unlimited version but it always says I can’t connect to the store because I need a stable internet connection even when I have one. Please fix.Version: 0.8.19
✓ Very good gameMaybe add an option to sim games but overall great game, its competitive and its fun. Im glad i waited for this game because its so fun..Version: 0.8.12
✓ Great But Could Be ImprovedI would like to start off by saying this game is great in many aspects, however, some mechanics could be tweaked to make the user experience near perfect. First, while having to manage the player's gpa, the only way to increase their gpa is by having to bench the player or use coaching credits. Even setting the training regime to low seemingly has no effect on improving player gpa. Second, the random events in RB College are mostly, if not all, negative. In my own experience I think I only experienced 3 events that in fact boosted a specific players moral. Most of the time the random events cause either a loss in morale, or coaching credits. I really hope that the developers tweak these mechanics because this game has so much more potential than where it is now. I would still recommend playing the original RB for now..Version: 0.8.15
✓ Wish there were a Retro CFLGreat game, but I wish there was a Retro Bowl version for the CFL..Version: 0.8.19
✓ Great game! Some small bugs and wishes…I really enjoyed Retro Bowl but I may like the College version even more! Hopefully basketball, baseball, and other sports will be possible down the road! As far as bugs I have observed, there still seems to be some issues with how historical results are displayed in the head coaching profile, like incorrect final ranking, text character overlap, and conference names appearing and disappearing as you scroll through the history. Also, the “Achievements” list tends to glitch repeatedly when trying to scroll through. Lastly, I changed the divisional names from “Major” and “Minor” to “FBS” and “FCS”, respectively, but it is still not reflected in the historical results. Wishes: it would be awesome if a list of historical winners was added for championship games and bowl games, as seen in Retro Bowl and Retro Goal. Also, the ranking logic seems a bit unrealistic at times when considering win-loss records and victories over other ranked teams. Lastly, it would be great to see a happy medium between Dynamic and Extreme difficulty levels. At Dynamic Level 12, I can run/throw for 70+ yards on almost every play but I rarely see a play go longer than 10 yards at the Extreme level. And any more achievements and player records that you can add would also be fantastic! Thanks for making these great games!.Version: 0.8.15
✓ Possible improvements to RBCPhenomenal game. I have no gripes about the game, however there are things to fix about it 1. A rivalry system. Rivalries are one of the biggest things in college football, and allowing each school to play their biggest rival at the end of the season should be a must-have for a college football game 2. Transfer Portal. Another more recent thing about college football is the transfer portal. It should also come to where the Scholarship fund is kept by the school for the Transfer Portal 3. Conference realignment. One of my biggest issues is the fact that conferences are rigid instead of modifiable. Along with Conference realignment, we should also have the ability to add or remove conferences 4. Modifiable formations. Similar to Retro Goal, where you can modify how your players are set up, I think it would be nice if we could incorporate different types of Formations as our basic formations, for example Singleback formation on offense and 3-4 formation on defense.Version: 0.8.12
✓ Great gameBoy is this an amazing game. This has to be the first in a long time when a sports game had a sequel and it was equally as good or better. I also love that there are no ads. There are a lot of games that are good but have way too much ads. Although it’s a great game it would be nice if there was a transfer portal. In today’s college football, it’s a major part of the game now and it would be nice if it was added. Another cool thing would be if you could change divisions and conferences. Say if you have a really good FCS team but, you want to go FBS. In this game you can’t. Also since the college playoffs are changing next year it’ll be nice if the changes are made. Even with these features not in the game, I love playing everyday and would recommend it to anybody..Version: 0.8.19
✓ It’s the best college football mobile game butOverall this game is been VERY fun but there is some issues. First is the gpa, my star players have to be benched for 3 weeks at a time at least 2 or 3 times a year. My biggest issue with the game overall is that I can’t change teams. In the original retro bowl, you would start with a bad team and once you won a championship, you would get tons of offers and after a couple championships you could go to any team in the entire league. In this game, they 8 FBS teams are the only teams you can play with. No matter how many champions I win, there is 0 offers. And it makes it less fun because there is no real motivation. The journey from Portland state to Georgia or Michigan is what would make this game elite. If they add changing teams, change the gpa a little and maybe make a slight tweak to recruiting. (Michigan and big schools start with a 70k cap while Portland state starts with 35k).Version: 0.8.12
✓ A bit rigged?Great game and I recommend it highly. However, as you play on there is clearly an algorithm that works against the player. I have it on both the phone and ipad, so play two separate leagues and I play often (I travel a lot, so it’s a tidy little activity while the plane is boarding, etc). In two unrelated experiences the game is constantly penalizing me with negative issues, sometimes two at a time (curfew, skip studying, etc.). The game clearly wants me to pay for more credits to upgrade, increase GPA, increase happiness, etc. Similarly, the whole GPA path is basically a pay to play/win scheme, in this case, sort of literally. You essentially have to pay to play your players. Otherwise, they are often on the bench. In my lifetime I don’t know if I have ever heard of a star player actually benched for academic reasons, while if I didn’t pay for grades it would happen to almost every player every season. That’s a bit much. Injuries as well. Finally, add a SIM button. All my offensive players are injured (another thing that has happened on iPhone/ipad at similar times), it would be good to sim the games without them..Version: 0.8.15
✓ SuggestionsPlease make simulating a option like in the NFL retro bowl also it would be cool to make your own plays and make a retro bowl for the CFL.Version: 0.8.19
✓ Sim Games5 stars once we can sim games.Version: 0.8.19
✓ Great Game but..I’ve been playing as Hamilton and everytime I finish a season and win my division as soon as I press continue on the congratulations screen the game crashes and gives me an error popup but when I close the app and go to load up the save file it just sits there loading forever and won’t let me back in..Version: 0.8.10
✓ GreatThis is a really fun game action packed and everything but the two main take aways are no simulate and in collage there is no free agency but there is a transfer portal so if you add transfor portal recruits this game would be flawless!!.Version: 0.8.12
✓ Outstanding.You guys have really outdone yourselves. Before this game I would have given the other retro bowl a 10/10 because I didn’t know a mobile game could get any better. It’s an absolutely immersive experience that continues to blow me away 26 seasons in. On top of all this, the premium version is $.99?!? You can’t even buy a gum ball for that cheap in 2024. I only have one problem with this game, and it’s that I cannot, for the life of me, stop playing. I charge my phone to 100% and then play until it’s dead immediately. I fear that I’m going to lose my job soon because all I do is play retro bowl college and I really don’t care because nothing else matters to me. The only addition I’d make is a basketball version of the game- a “Retro Ball” if you will- so I can pay you guys more money..Version: 0.8.19
✓ 0 DOMINANT Teams?!… That’s Utterly RIDICULOUS!!!In EVERY season that I’ve played?! ALL of The CFP Teams had At LEAST 3 but MOSTLY 4 losses. What kind of NCAA Football is that?! My 1st season at Vandy, I went 10-3 (losing only to UGA and Tenn). I was my division Runner-Up but EVERY CFP Team had a worse record than us. I had to settle for A Sugar (I think) Bowl appearance vs USC (we lost, in kind of a BlowOut; 45-28). I’ve purchased The Unlimited Version, 50 Coaching Credits and even 500 Coaching Credits because I play on “Dynamic” and I want to have A Competitive Edge. But I would like to see Power House Football Teams with Powerhouse records. UGA, BAMA or Ohio State SHOULDN’T finish 9-4 or 8-5 and be the top teams in their conference. That’s An OFF Year, for those teams. Oregon winning The PAC-12 at 8-5?! RIDICULOUS. Please, fix!!! Other than that?! GOOD Game. Change The UNREALISTIC PARITY and make The Powerhouse Teams actually POWERHOUSES?! That and adding A Transfer Portal?!… Will make “Retro College Bowl TOTALLY AWESOME!!!🙏🏽🔥🏈🎮💯.Version: 0.8.15
✓ Great game, but a couple bugs perhaps?Love the different dynamics involved compared to Retro Bowl (which is a great game). After purchasing the unlimited version, the 12 man roster option doesn’t seem to be recognised and stays as 10 in the roster screen, even if 12 is your options selection. Bug, or am I missing something? Also, setting the coaching options to light seems to drop the GPA values as fast as the normal setting. In one season my kicker (a junior) played in only half the games as the GPA sometimes didn’t improve after being benched, even with light training as the setting. As with the continual improvements in Retro Bowl, I’m sure the college version will get massaged too. Cheers for the great games!.Version: 0.8.9
✓ Great game but I see a few possibilitiesFirst off I want to start out by saying I love the original retro bowl I’ve been playing it since it came out when this game came out I was very excited, I love how you have to start out as a smaller school and work you’re way up to get better offers or build the smaller school to a powerful program. But I have 1 small issue with the “Pro Draft”, when you’re players get drafted depending on there performance throughout college depends on how much money you get towards signing players to the team but the game gives you a max of $50,000 to sign players with which is a decent amount but it feels like if you do so well with players you should get a little bit more of a reward towards the scholarship fund, maybe a max of 75,000. But besides that is a great game 4 stars.Version: 0.8.15
✓ BEST GAME EVER But,Retro Bowl College may be the best app I’ve ever downloaded. For College football fans, it doesn’t get better than this on mobile. It’s just like retro bowl but there are a few differences. First, seasons are 14 weeks, you get two bye weeks, and the playoff section of the season is a total 5 weeks long. The biggest difference is when people go to the NFL, they donate money back to your team, but they will not keep all the money. With the money you have left, you recruit players to your team. There is no salary cap. Another huge difference is you have to maintain your player’s gpas. If they drop below 1 or so, they can’t play unless it eventually goes up or you use coaching credits to make it go up. Overall, the game is insanely fun and very addicting. Every single college team including FCS schools are in the game. Some of the jerseys are off and some team names had to be changed for copyright purposes, but other wise, this is easily the best college football game I’ve ever downloaded on mobile. Maybe the best game ever..Version: 0.8.12
✓ Fun game but…Game is fun like retro bowl and retro goal but im facing an infinite blue screen when opening a save that is about to go to postseason. Please fix and then this game would be 5/5.Version: 0.8.10
✓ Retro Bowl collegeCan we make it so we can Sim games?.Version: 0.8.19
✓ More marketingGenuine great game, don’t usually write reviews unless I get something but this feels better than retro bowl, not sure if it’s the ncaa 14 nostalgia, just wish I knew about it before!.Version: 0.8.12
✓ Can’t pick College of youre choice - but why not?I like this game. I also like the regular, Retro Bowl, which I played for years now. The main problem with the college Retro Bowl is that you’re unable to pick the college of your choice. When you first start playing the game, you can only choose from a limited number of low to your colleges. The question is, why? Why Is it structured this way? If the goal of the developers is to have the players work their way up, I get it. However, at some point, it’s simply ridiculous to prevent people from playing the college that they really like. If the goal is to prevent everyone from picking, for example, Alabama, and winning every game every year, well, then make it harder …. The real fun and joy of playing a college football game is the colleges themselves. If you can’t play the college that you like, then this game is maddeningly frustrating. To put it bluntly, as structured, it serves no purpose. To be clear now I have won multiple majors championships with multiple teams, including Nevada and Las Vegas – I won with Las Vegas two years in a row - Which should set me up as a pretty good player. However, most of the major college teams are still blacked out and I cannot pick them to play. Why? It serves NO purpose..Version: 0.8.15
✓ It’s Great But,This game is overall very fun and addicting to play. I’ve recently had the app for a week and have already played 5 seasons. Overall it’s a great but there are some key aspects missing. First of all, the transfer portal. This is a key part of the current college game. This would make it more fun because you would be able to switch teams and be able to bring them with you or instead of needing to get people who have never played you can get veteran qbs and rbs to help power your team and mentor the young players. Second, the GPA aspect of the game. I like the overall aspect of it but it is too difficult to get around. For example, you can be playing and after like 3 or 4 weeks your star player is done and potentially for the rest of the season. Also, you can spend credits on helping their GPA but many of us can’t spend credits every week trying to help players be eligible. Thank you for listening and hopefully you will help the Retro Bowl community make this game better and more fun for all of us. Overall, though the game is a very good game and very fun..Version: 0.8.12
✓ Question/statementYou guys should make it that we could play defence,like you choose one player for the drive or something like that But otherwise I love the game.Version: 0.8.19
✓ Very decent. A few thingsI was looking forward to a spin-off of Retro Bowl, possibly even a Retro Bowl 2. I had very high hopes, which were met with some joy. I am happy that there’s a little twists and changes here and there with the budget, GPA and more. I’m also happy with the attention to detail, like how you can see their majors and what they’re studying. In terms of gameplay, there is no difference from Retro Bowl itself, which is a slight disappointment. One of the overarching problems of Retro Bowl was it’s repetitiveness; you draft high potential, you have a decent season, you draft more high potential, you win the Retro Bowl. Even if it was a slight gameplay change, like penalties or flags being in the game. I didn’t mean for this to be negative in any way. I love the thought put in to this game, and I have really high hopes for the future. Thank you for this amazing game..Version: 0.8.9
✓ Simulate GamesGreat game with a good concept but gets boring after a few seasons having to play every game, so adding the ability to sim games like normal retro bowl would make it a lot more playable.Version: 0.8.19
✓ QuestionCould u add sim games back i love the game so far.Version: 0.8.12
✓ Too many fumbles on extremeToo many fumbles on extreme.Version: 0.8.12
✓ Needs to be fixed and added!This game is honestly better then the Nfl version in many ways, but on here you cant play more then 2 full seasons and it gives you a error page and makes u leave the game thats my biggest issue with it, there is some stuff that could be added, like make it so its more then 50k to start with especially without premium, make it so u can see how old they really are bc i mean u could be a freshman in college at the age of 24 u never know honestly, Could you guys pls link the 2 games together so we dont have to buy premium again bc they are almost the same game, make it so we can like see out old college players even if hes been drafted to the Nfl, like let us see his Nfl stats year by year, let us scot high school players and u should honestly make extreme a bit harder because now its boring and easy, thank u guys so much for these fun games..Version: 0.8.10
