The game actually has a lot of depth. You manage a team and everything a real life manager does is portrayed well. Training, press conferences, buying and selling players, etc. The manager aspect of the game is card based, for example increasing a player's dribbling stat requires a dribbling upgrade card. Replenishing energy requires an energy card, etc. The cool part is you actually get to play the game, and not just simulate the matches. This adds a layer of skill to the strategy. Very fun!

First season is the so much fun, but later on it gets really frustrating: you cannot keep the squad up to the challenge, happiness is almost impossible to maintain even when I put all my problem solving skills into the game everyone was upset because of the losses and it just keeps getting worse. it has the potential to be a great game, what the developers are doing is so unjust to the software! exclusive stuff should be optional and/or reasonable, PRICES ARE HIGH EVEN WHEN I CONSIDERED BUYING!

I played this game like crazy for the past few days. I think it is quite fun being able to manage a football club in this. The game does a great job of capturing all aspects of the job from signing players and working with the board to dealing with morale issues between teammates. However, I am giving this game two stars because it is unplayable to the mid/late game if you don't fork out some money. Everything goes sideways without spending money. Finally since I'm out of space, too many ads.
