Addictive, challenging enough and easy to pick back up. Been playing for years and recently got back into it but there's 2 downsides. Having black Staff cards now costs real money (It never use too) and it would be nice if one of the players 'Skills' was fitness, so that you could concentrate on those with high stamina. We all have our favourites but playing in all competitions, you have to rotate the full 11 almost every game. Especially when players are crying over development after 2-3 games.

Maybe it'll be better if you can see how the enemies do their attack and more dribbling skills should ne added. Moreover saving of progresses in case if something happened like changing of phone please

I love this game but it keeps removing whenever l play it . I have been intending to show my friends but never worked . I would have rated it five but it was because of the crashing that usually occurs when I try to play it And am hoping that you guys can fix it . I will be grateful if my request is been granted

But can you please update your game it's great but I'm sure if we watch the matches we can see how do all the players play so BAD

It's a great game but there are some stuff that need to be fixed. You should pay money to rename your club, do your logo and jerseys which is ridiculous. Second, there are some matches that you are destined to lose. It doesn't matter how much you try, thr result is still the same. The system to buy players to renew contracts is also ridiculous. If you fix these, than the game would be a lot more enjoyable.

PTW and ads review: PTW Is an option but isn't needed to build a roster. A 5 second ad plays at the end of each match. Longer ads are optional to avoid squad rotation and to get an extra opportunity per game to score. If you have some schedule congestion and want to play your stars every game you might end up watching lots of ads, but by choice. Game play review: decent, does a good job of splitting the difference between live action gaming needed for ⚽️ and turn based gaming needed for cell.

The thing really bringing this down is the inability to purchase packs with coins. The game constantly bugs you and asks for your money just to improve your squad. I wouldn't get it unless they change up the microtransactions to make them suit those of today. Some sort of pass or something. Every single pack is like $4 and that's not appealing. If you were to do a pass that had challenges, then maybe that'd be better but it's sad to see this game in this state.

I never leave in actual worded review on anything but I have been playing this game for quite a while now and it's amazing. To anyone saying you need to buy cards to keep up, I just beat Champ league brentford while still in league2 with a 35 avg team. It's not easy by any means, but its possible. Like any team game, just know who your Strikers are, make sure every player gets at least some playing time, and pick and choose who gets training and when. Great game overall!

I tried this game, because I really liked their other game NSS. I gave it a chance, but this game is horrible. On field mechanics are clunky, after getting promoted to in the 2nd year it becomes impossible to win games without spending money (I lost 15 straight games after taking 2nd place the season before), it constantly freezes and overheats my phone (even the ads freeze), and also ads ads ads ads ads ads ads and ads. Uninstalling it! If you want my $ make a good game first!

Pretty good managerial game, rather complicated but that at least makes sense if you are on the coaching side of things & responsible for the whole team. There are numerous moments in-game where your assistant manager pitches in with advice which can help. The complexity does impede on gameplay too much for me but worth a try if you're a fan of this type of management in your football games. After giving it a go am sticking with NSS as there is just way too much to deal with here.

Very fun management style game. I enjoy cultivating my players, leveling up buildings, scouting and buying new players, and the actual playing on the field with the stop feature every time you take your finger of the screen so you can strategize. Very fun game and I've been playing it on and off for years. My only criticism is that they haven't made a new game that's similar to this one and it's been years. Please make a new one with added features for player development. I'm a huge fan.

Honestly great game but it still has its flaws. One is that you can't bend the ball nearly as well as you could in new star soccer. This makes it nearly impossible to hit free kicks and honestly this causes free kicks to put you in a worse situation. It piles defenders into the box and with no way to shoot you have to pass and hope you can get a scoring opportunity with 7 defenders in the box. But besides this and having to tank the second season because you aren't anywhere near good enough to be where you get promoted to this game is great.

Prices, prices, prices. Pricing structure is IMPOSSIBLE. Love the gameplay and strategy, but it's impossible to make it past a certain point. I also have tried watching ads to get player energy, but I never get the energy after I watch. Don't make me waste my time and earn you money on your game without making the process for rewards work properly. I REALLY want to like this game but a lot of work needs to be done.

This game is unplayable. You need to restart the app so many times just to get the outcome you want. You know what thats called in FM? Scumsaving. First, our players get really unhappy at the beginning bc you can't produce training cards quickly enough. Second, the controls are super wonky (wanting to pass when dribbling is super weird). Third, your players make the dumbest mistakes stat wise. The mechanics work for an individual game like New Star Soccer but not for a manager style game.

Seriously a really good game. Great fun, generally easy to understand quick. Possible to play with a little patience on ads to re-energize players. What would make it OUTSTANDING??? Add in the option to see stats, standings, from all other countries and leagues....and make it possible to target / sign players from outside your country. Oh, and while we're on it, it would be INCREDIBLE if at the end of the season, teams fronm other countries were recruiting you!

I enjoyed the game very much. Until the point of the game seems to make it to where you need to buy those packs. I wouldnt mind paying to removes ads if you also got packs as an incentive, including the name change option. It just seems like you are not getting value from any of the transactions. Also its ridiculous to absolutely need "skill/ physio cards" to improve players. They should slowly improve just by playing as anyone would in real life.

Phenomenal game that is well fleshed. Only things that I dislike is that energy is tough/near impossible to keep up without boosting via ads or paying for cards, and that contracts are based in number of games; I would much rather have seasons based contracts. That being said, way better than the competition's complete unplayability. Love the in game moments, building the team from the ground up, and all the intricacies.

Good game, ruined by need to buy cards. Been playing nss for years and played this one now and then. The gameplay itself is great and hard to put down when you get into it. However, I am sick of losing by 1 goal no matter how many I get and all concern bars filling up, leading to poor play and losing key players after a few seasons. The entire experience and team frustratingly falls apart after a few good days play and is basically a waste of time.

The game is extremely fun. The amount of stuff you have to take into account can be overwhelming, but it's a good challenge. The game play is good as well. Dribbling is kind of awkward because you have to pull back but then it's hard to stop and pass without going into shooting mode and hitting cancel. Progress through the bottom league is good, but the moment you get promoted your toast. You have to buy players because you'll barely get any scoring attempts in the second leave with you mid 30/low 40 players. You loss and everyone will be unhappy. I'd be willing to buy a pack, but the 1, 2, or 3 players you'd get for $10 will not make a difference with the rest of your squad being so low and not having any depth.

This is a really fun game and also quite different from the standard new star style. I've really enjoyed playing it. My only critique is two-sided: I think it's a bit too easy. As a championship team I think I should have a chance to beat a top premier League team, but it should be a narrow chance, I do think it's a little too easy to beat opponents that are objectively better than you and with more challenge it would make those game-winners that much more satisfying.
