Rivalry Games Launches Rivalry Fantasy Football, The First Real-time Fantasy Sports App

LOS ANGELES - Oct. 23, 2013 - PRLog -- Los Angeles, CA (October 23, 2013) – Sports gaming company Rivalry Games launches a real-time fantasy football game for the casual sports fan: Rivalry Fantasy Football.

Rivalry Fantasy Football is aiming to disrupt the fantasy sports industry by providing fans the easiest way to play fantasy – choose a game, draft your team and select your opponents, all at the convenience of a mobile device.  By focusing on simplified gameplay and single game competition, Rivalry Fantasy Football ties together what other fantasy sports apps lack, featuring:

·    In-game substitution for more strategic play

·    Live chat to trash talk opponents

·    The option for half or full game challenges

·    Notifications for convenient game play

Each feature helps maintain the same player intensity and engagement as season-long fantasy football, but is built for the casual audience and requires no long-term commitment.

“Over the past few years,I started to see a lot of my friends stop participating in fantasy sports.  Yet the giants of the industry were still touting innovations like ‘drag and drop’ and ignoring the bigger picture: they had completely missed the mobile gaming revolution and were failing to deliver on fantasy’s promise to make the games more interesting while connecting friends and fans” says Rivalry Games CEO and co-founder Justin Bauer.

Rivalry Games officially launched Rivalry Football for Android devices on October 13 and on iOS devices on October 20, 2013.  They will be celebrating the launch of their game at Busby’s West in Santa Monica for Thursday’s Panthers vs Buccaneers game.  Click here to register: http://rivalrylaunchparty.eventbrite.com/
