90 minutes on the weekend turns into a passionate drama

Eleven: Football Manager offers more than just a way to kill time.
It requires strategic thinking that will get your brain sweating, and the overwhelming sense of accomplishment when you win.

Why are so many strategy game fans so passionate about this title?
Here's why.

• A sense of omnipotence that controls all aspects of management
  Stadium expansion, sponsorship deals, scouting young players.
  The hard work off the pitch is the key to victory. The joy of building "my team" is exceptional.


• A different drama emerges every time
  If the opponent or situation changes, the optimal solution will also change.
  The system combines worker placement (action selection) and resource management, allowing you to experience fresh challenges and excitement no matter how many times you play .


• Late-night blissful solo play
  If you don't have time to meet up with friends, that's okay.
  Six satisfying solo scenarios will take you through challenging business challenges.
  Having time to carefully plan your strategy without being disturbed by anyone is the greatest luxury for modern people.

Your decisions will become the history of the club

"Should we bring in veterans for short-term wins?"
"Should we renovate the stadium with an eye to the future?"

There is no correct answer.
It's just your strategy.

The club runs from Monday to Friday and competes in league matches on the weekends.
The realism created by this "weekly cycle" gives you a sense of immersion, as if you were really in charge of the club office.

The emotion of lifting the trophy after overcoming a difficult season.
It's a privilege that can only be enjoyed by those who actually put in the effort .

World-renowned game design

This is an ambitious 2022 project from Portal Games , the studio behind many masterpieces, and designer Thomas Jansen .

It is a wonderful blend of the familiar theme of "soccer" and the system of a "deep strategy game."
The perfect balance of strategy and luck (dice) creates an exciting game where the outcome is uncertain until the very last minute.

A. Don't worry.
Elements within the game are represented by many "icons (visual information)," and the design is easy to understand intuitively, regardless of language.

Q. Isn't it too difficult for board game beginners?
A. The goal is clear: to make the soccer club stronger, so it's surprisingly easy to get into the world.
It is recommended that you start by playing solo to thoroughly familiarize yourself with the rules.
Even a system that may seem complicated will turn into a sense of pleasure once you get it working , as you'll realize, "Ah, so this is how your team becomes stronger!"

Q. Can I play alone for a long time?
A. Yes, solo play is one of the true strengths of this game.
Each of the six different scenarios has different conditions for clearing, making them challenging to conquer.
