About the game
Fast Drive Football (FDF) is a one-player, card & dice tabletop game that simulates (American) Pro Football. It's a "drive-by-drive" game, meaning that instead of simulating each individual play, you are simulating one possession at a time. Games take about 15-20 minutes to play once you learn the rules. "On any given Sunday..." FDF is unique in that most results are driven by team qualities - not precise numerical statistics. This approach allows for the development of a more colorful narrative throughout the game. The game book was designed to ensure that teams perform as they did in real life, but also to allow for the occasional surprise that keeps you coming back to roll just one more game... —description from the designer

Questions and answers
Fast Drive Football supports 1 player according to the catalogue. This is the publisher’s listed player count, so the game is designed for exactly that number of participants. Variants for other group sizes, if any, are described in the rulebook of your edition, so check it before setting up a different configuration.
The listed playing time for Fast Drive Football is 15–20 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game.

Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Fast Drive Football for ages 7 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Fast Drive Football has a complexity rating of 1.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game.
