Independent developer Fabula Sports launched its new Fabula Football App this week, a virtual currency-based betting game where players can buy and sell bets during live football matches.

The game, available for play on iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch devices, covers a range of international leagues and tournaments that include the English Premier League, Champions League, Bundesliga and World Cup 2014.

It allows users to bet virtual currency on a variety of live match outcomes and variables including whether the match will be a win, draw or a loss, plus features like goal difference and next goal scorer.

Fabula Football is designed primarily as a social gaming experience. It integrates fully with Facebook enabling players to compete with their friends and share real-time updates on their progress during and after matches as well as provides stats and analytics that enable them to track their lifetime progress via graphs and stats across multiple games in the personal zone.
