Incredibly fun social game, if it bit bare bones

Best experienced with a group of friends on a discord call, trying to use the text lobbies sucks ass. While easy to get a group in 2020, nowadays it’s much more of a pain

(8-year-old's review, typed by his dad)

It's a very crazy game where there's a lot of minigames and you compete against a lot of people and I don't like playing against like 25-year-olds that have been playing for like I dunno 2 or 3 years? And most of the time I don't get past the first or second level, it's only on rare occasions that I make it to third. There are some... okay levels, I like the survival ones especially the one where there's a twisty wheel and there's holes and you have to not fall through and there's shapes coming for you and you have to dodge them.

I do wanna say one more thing. I don't like the levels where there's a big obstacle course, ESPECIALLY not the ones with bouncy ones. (I mean the ones which have trampolines or bouncy springs on the walls)

New update: hellow everyone, Mojang here. We're going to update videogame Minecraft to have more use for villager character in videogame. For so long, village feel like nothing but now it feel like something with new job for villager. What is the new job? It is a person who sell bottle. Bottle is new block added in game. place down to contain water like cauldron but also see inside it like glass. You can put fish and other into bottle. Name of villager is "Bottle Man." We can't wait for you to try it out. Hapy crafting!

One of the interesting things about squeezing a management-game down to be playable on mobile devices, is that it forces a huge reduction in "game space"/"decision space" in a way that can often create unique and interesting situations.

In Football Chairmen situations are thrown at you on a single screen that you have to (effectively) Yes/No your way through - but in the knowledge that you can't control what these situations will be. You know your manager will try to sign players, but you're not sure how good they'll be or in what positions. Similarly bids for your players will come in, and you'll have to decide to keep or sell without full control of their replacement.

The distinct lack of control you have forces you to make decisions that you know aren't perfect, in a way that actually feels more realistic than those you would make in a more detailed simulation with greater control.

Football Chairmen is quick a simple to play, the UI is clean and readable (if the buttons are a little small) and gives all the solid, satisfying decision making of a grander scale game.
