Fantasy Sports Games challenge a manager to build a fantasy team of sports players that competes against other managers based on the statistics generated by individual players or teams of a professional sport. In most games the manager selects a fantasy team consisting of real life players. The manager then receives points based on the players' performance in real life matches.

Fantasy Sports games heighten an entrant's interest and involvement in the real life sport or activity that they enjoy and provide competition against other people. Fantasy Sports participants are competitive by nature - they want to win, be it their works mini-league or the overall league. Fantasy Sports are more than a game; for many it is a way of life!
