Own the club.
Grow the town.

Yes, it's free to play — and no, there's no pay-to-win, no energy timers, and no premium currency. The money your club earns is the only currency that matters. Optional purchases and rewarded ads are conveniences, never power you can't earn by playing.

Yes. Your career lives on your device and plays fully offline — no account, no sign-up, no internet required.

You're the owner. A Sporting Director works the transfer market and a coach picks the line-up; they bring you proposals and you make the calls on transfers, contracts, budgets, staff, and the club's long-term direction.

It's a full simulation. Your coach picks one of eight formations and six play styles; you read the tactical matchup and follow each game live with expected goals, weather, fitness, fixture congestion and substitutions. Players are built from 32 attributes across six categories and 24 player roles — a poacher plays nothing like a target man — so no two feel the same.

Yes. Climb a five-division pyramid with promotion play-offs, chase the domestic cup, and qualify for three European competitions — a Champions, Europa and Conference tier — which you play yourself, group stage through the knockouts, for real prize money.

Yes. Your players and academy graduates are called up for their countries and can win caps at the European Championship (24 nations) and a 48-team World Cup. You follow the tournament day by day as a spectator while your stars represent their nations — and a strong tournament lifts their value.

Yes — this is one of the game's most distinctive systems. Your nation's strength is built from the real players you develop, so a thriving academy gradually turns a weak footballing nation into a contender. Raise better youth, and you raise a country.

Your club is only as big as its hometown. Grow it through 16 investments — from a youth pitch to a metropolis — and win over nine named locals (a Mayor, a Rival Tycoon, a Tabloid Editor, a Fan Leader, a Street Artist and four more) whose opinions move real levers like investment costs, sponsorship value and youth quality.

Your owner ages, builds a fortune, dates, marries and raises children — and weathers the occasional family drama, where the choices you make leave scars your heir inherits. Children are characters, not counters: their portraits can blend your owner's heritage with your partner's, and one day you pick an heir to carry the wealth, the club and the legacy across generations.

Yes — 35 of them, spanning club trophies, town growth, personal wealth, dynasty milestones and the transfer market, from your first win to continental glory and a completed succession. Each unlock rewards cash and a news headline.

Yes — the finances have teeth. Overspend and you'll feel it, right down to bankruptcy and forced asset sales. Running the business well is how you win on the pitch.

Yes. With owner sign-off enabled, your Sporting Director works the market and brings key signings, sales, releases and loans to you for approval. You can inspect the squad first, then sign or pass.

Once your youth setup grows, you can open international camps across regions such as South America, West Africa, North Africa, East Asia and North America. Camps add academy capacity, improve foreign-prospect odds, and slowly lift the football strength of the nations you invest in.

Your town rival can be owned by another tycoon family. Their dynasty keeps its own head, trophies, promotions, relegations and derby record, so a local rivalry can become family-versus-family across generations.
