Name real footballers to count down from 501 by their career stats. Play free with no account - daily challenge, unlimited solo games and 2-6 player pass-and-play.
Football 501 borrows its scoring from darts and its subject from the football quiz. Every player starts on 501. On your turn you name a footballer who fits the competition and filters the game was set up with, and that player's real career number - goals, appearances, assists or clean sheets, whichever stat the game is scoring - comes off your total. The first to check out, landing between 0 and -10, wins.
The busts are what make it a game. No single visit in darts beats 180, so a player worth more than 180 is a bust and the turn scores nothing. The impossible darts checkouts - 163, 166, 169, 172, 173, 175, 176, 178 and 179 - are busts too, as is anything that would take you below -10, a name that has already been used, or a player who isn't in the pool. Open with the prolific names to get the score down, then switch to the defenders and goalkeepers whose small numbers land you exactly in the zone.
Here the game scores every name against one database, so there are no arguments about whose number is right. Play the daily challenge free with no account, play solo as many times as you like with your own filters, or pass the phone round for up to six players.
Football darts, also called Football 501, is a free online game that turns a game of darts into a football trivia contest. Instead of throwing darts you name footballers, and each player is worth their real career stat (goals, appearances, assists or clean sheets). That number is subtracted from your score as you race down from 501 to zero.
Both players start on 501 and take turns naming footballers for the competition and filters you chose. Each name subtracts that player's real career stat from your total. Just like darts, the aim is to be first to check out by landing exactly between 0 and -10. Name a player worth more than 180, hit an impossible darts checkout, go below -10, or repeat a name and you bust for that turn.
Yes, all of it. The daily challenge, unlimited solo games with your own filters and pass-and-play for up to six people are free with no account, and you can play right now. A free account adds streaks, the daily and weekly leaderboards, and saves the games you have played.
Checkout means finishing: landing your score exactly between 0 and -10, first player to do it wins. Bust means an illegal move that ends your turn with no change - naming a player worth over 180 (no single dart beats 180), an impossible darts finish (163, 166, 169, 172, 173, 175, 176, 178, 179), a score below -10, or a player you've already used.
You can build the player pool from the Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, Bundesliga, Ligue 1, the Champions League and more, then filter by club, nationality or position. Choose your scoring metric from appearances, goals, assists or clean sheets. Coverage is strongest for recent seasons and major competitions.
Yes. Play pass-and-play with up to 6 people on a single phone, compare scores on the daily challenge, or climb the solo and weekly leaderboards. Everyone gets the same daily challenge, so you can all try the same puzzle and share your checkout.
