A Tippspiel is a prediction game where the game results of (football) matches are predicted and varying points given based on the actual result.

The frontend is built with HTML5 and CSS3 and is responsive and supports Retina screens. In the screenshots, you can see how the layout and texts are adjusted for smaller screens and mobile devices while showing the same information.
