Football Manager is a comprehensive simulation game of the world of professional football in which you play the role of the manager of your favourite football team. You start at the bottom of Division Four and have to try to work your way up through each division until you reach Division One. You also play it F. A. Cup matches and there's even a transfer market, and an injury list. The program also provides graphical representations of the most important highlights of each game.
There are seven levels of skill, and I must say that I found the game quite easy at the lowest level, winning the First Division championship, but at the highest level I just avoided relegation three seasons running.
The more successful you are, the more money you make. This means that you can afford to buy better players. It is wise to start at an easy level and to build up a good side before attempting one of the harder levels.
Overall, I think this game will sell very well. I am more of an arcade games fanatic, but I certainly enjoyed the almost realistic feel to this game. So if you're bored with 'zappo' games, give this a try - it will keep you amused for some time to come.
