Gameplay
Computer Quarterback is a game in which a statistics-based football game features both playbooks for both semi-pro and professional American football.[1]
Development
In a 1997 interview, Danielle Berry talked about the history of the game:
"Computer Quarterback" was written only for myself and friends to play on the computer at work. I later converted it from FORTRAN on a mini-computer to BASIC on an Apple II and sent it to Strategic Simulations.[2]
Reception
Wyatt Lee reviewed the game for Computer Gaming World, and stated that "Team Data Disks for individual seasons have been marketed through the company catalog and this is a very playable game."[1]
