Touchdown Frenzy is a football-style game that captures the look and
feel of hand held football games from the 80's. In Touchdown Frenzy, players
make an initial wager that they can move the football down the field into
scoring range and score. The object of the game is to gain yardage and
either score a touchdown or a field goal.
