10 Yard Fight is a simple arcade game based on American football. One player can play against the computer or a second player head-to-head matchup and can choose between five levels of difficulty (high school, college, pro, playoffs, and Super Bowl). If you win a game at a lower difficulty level, the following game is automatically played at the next highest difficulty level.
One game consists (accelerated real-time) 30-minute halves of play to decide who wins this 10 Yard Fight. The Japanese version has a different gameplay mechanic, where players take control of a football team and have the task of trying to score a touchdown before the clock runs out.
