It's really good, the best American football sim out there. There's nothing like turning America Samoa into a national championship team

College Football the way it is! I have to say this game surprised me in a great way for I have always been cautious of early access games. I've bought a couple I had to return. But this game is great what I have been wanting for awhile. I have played some other text based sports games and I was wishing someone would make a text based game in College football. There are some out there but this one has them beat. I am hooked. I love the detail with recruiting , the transfer portal , and NIL money. And i'm able to create my own league. I also love how they have been updating the game. I know they're about to go off early access soon but I would suggest during off season when players are leaving please make it so that the player can access the depth chart for the purpose of making promises to players trying to transfer. I had to make a spread sheet for that purpose so that if a recruit wants more playing time to stay the player can check the depth chart to see if he or she could keep that promise if not they may be shooting the the dark causing their integrity to take a big hit. I am glad that you are adding achievements to the game but really to me I can enjoy it without them. With or without achievements it has great replay value. This is about like Out of the Park Baseball it captures the sports fan in me. It is really easy to learn and makes you feel like you are actually coaching. I recommend this game to anyone who likes game management and simulation sports games.

The game has life and soul in a way that makes you think about it all the time. And once you get a few years into your dynasty it really starts to get good as you find yourself having some kind of connection to every player you looked over in recruiting. The game brings a world to life and the mods are awesome for immersion. I love that the discord is active with people talking about how to make the game better. This game has made me feel so much better about not enjoying the AAA sports games anymore. It is greatly appreciated.

This game hits like crack in the 80's. I don't even like college football, but I love sports management sims, and as it stands, this game already feels more complete than other sports sims on the market that have been rolling out annual versions for 10 years. This review is from the perspective of somebody who has played Eastside Hockey Manager and Franchise Hockey Manager extensively. I am also unfamiliar with college football aside from knowing that Umass is ass. Recruiting is just as enjoyable as signing, trading, and drafting, which are all common in the games that I enjoy. It's addictive and the process lasts all season. Scouting, coach meetings, scholarships, and extra money on top of scholarships are all viable negotiating tactics. It's awesome. In game is also wonderful. Have as little or as much control as you want over plays, subs, and clock management. Coaches are extremely important due to bonuses to playcalling. It allows less competitive teams to pull out some surprises when you have a good system in place. Speaking of playcalling, at the start of the week you can choose practice focuses, which also add bonuses to playcalls, really allowing you to push teams to overachieve. Gameplans likewise can get changes at the start of the week, and there is a convenient breakdown of your opponent in a myriad of offensive and defensive categories, which helps with the gameplan. But what if your gameplan poops the bed in the middle of a game? Change it on the fly or call plays manually with ease. I also find the UI and art to be quite pleasant. Bright colors, and aesthetically pleasing player models are great. I don't need real players or schools due to my ignorance on the subject manner, so the simple logos are nice too. If you have ever played International Basketball Manager 23 (Great game and still being supported, btw), the art style has a similar vibe, except you can give the player models faces, varying from simple to more detailed models, with eyes and mouths that aren't creepy. If you have ever played Franchise Hockey Manager and the weight of your avatar's soulless, doll like eyes constantly bearing down on you from the top left corner is too much, you won't feel as unsettled here. TL;DR The game feels complete and even people that no nothing about NCAA sports will find a great sports management game here. GREAT!
