As its name implies, Family Fun Football is a game designed to remove the intensity and bravado of gridiron action and replace it with light-hearted and accessible football. Winnowed playbooks, wacky characters, fantastical stadiums, and ten distinct mini-games contribute to the party-like atmosphere. Gamers choose from a stable of ten teams, and then head to five different stadiums where they can collect short-term power-ups that enhance their player's speed, strength, passing, and interception attributes. Those looking for a custom experience can select from a variety of animal, ninja, pirate, and alien avatars, play as their team's mascot, or unlock the ability to hit the field as any one of their created "Mii" characters.
