About This Game

EVERY ERA. EVERY LEAGUE. ONE DYNASTY.

Gridiron Dynasty is a football management game that spans the whole history of the sport. Start in any season from 1960 to today and take charge of a club in the pros, in college, in the Canadian game or indoors in the arena. Build it into a dynasty that lasts for decades.

WATCH EVERY SNAP

Every play is simulated and acted out on the field. You see the handoff and the hole opening, the safety coming downhill, the missed tackle, the interception, the field goal straight down the middle. Snow covers the field, rain soaks it, and injured players stay down while the trainers run out. Or skip ahead and simulate the whole season in seconds.

CALL EVERY PLAY

Take the headset yourself. Pick from your playbook with your coordinator's suggestions, set the game plan, or design your own plays in the play designer: pick a formation, draw the routes and run it on Sunday.

FROM 1960 TO TODAY

The game changes around you, season by season. Two-league football, straight-on kickers, no two-point try, the merger, expansion, free agency, the salary cap, and the rule changes and statistical trends of every decade. Start in 1960 and live through all of it, or jump straight into the modern game.

FOUR WAYS TO PLAY THE GAME

  • Pro football: the draft, free agency, trades, contracts and the salary cap.

  • College football: 187 programs, recruiting with visits, NIL and the transfer portal, rivalry games, bowls, conference titles and the playoff.

  • Canadian rules: 110-yard fields, three downs and twelve men a side.

  • Arena football: 50-yard fields and play off the rebound nets.

YOUR JOB, YOUR WAY

Be the general manager who builds the roster, the head coach who runs the depth chart, the playbook and the play calls, a coordinator running one side of the ball, or take full control. Answer to an owner who judges every season, or keep the job whatever happens.
