Reviews
How is this even possible? I was literally just thinking about how much I missed games like this from my childhood, and then the devs deliver this absolute gift for only €5! This is exactly what I was hoping to find. The nostalgia hit is incredible, and the game is just amazing. Thank you for making a grown man incredibly happy, Mr. Mark Stables. Exceptional work! Only thing I would add is maybe some minimalistic sound in the game
El juego es bastante entretenido, no hace falta estar leyendo durante horas para jugar unos pocos partidos, con hacerlo la primera vez que lo inicias basta, entendés lo básico y a jugar. Quisiera que la duración de los partidos sea un poco mas grande, siento que se pasan volando; en medio de los partidos los comentarios me aparecen en inglés (aunque tengo seleccionado el idioma español) no es molesto, pero no soy muy bueno con el idioma haha, en fin, es un buen juego, y por lo que veo todavía lo siguen mejorando, recomendado :)
Potenzialmente miglior football manager retro. Sono curioso di eventuali sviluppi e workshop. Fluido e fruibile.
What an amazing game! Thanks for the macOS support! Please add Turkish language support! <3
Great management game! The menus are very easy to navigate. Updates come out regularly. The developer responds quickly to feedback and tries to address players' requests—that's exactly how it should be 👌🏻 I'm excited to see what the future holds 🥳🎉
This game captures the magic of classic football management games with a simple yet sophisticated concept. The gameplay is enjoyable and easy to learn thanks to its intuitive mechanics. Despite its simplicity, it offers a satisfying blend of team management and tactical decision making, keeping each season exciting. With its elegant, classic design, it's a highly recommended and enjoyable experience for football management game enthusiasts.
