What you're getting into
A management game with a spine of steel
Every decision matters because every match can end your run. No saves to fall back on - just you, your XI, and the draw.
🌍
48 nations, real squads
The full 2026 format - 12 groups of 4, top two plus eight best third-placed teams, then a 32-team knockout all the way to the final.
⚙️
Real management depth
Seven formations, a starting XI with positional familiarity, and a defensive / balanced / attacking approach. Squad fatigue and team morale carry between matches.
📺
Live matches
Minute-by-minute commentary, pre-match scouting and win probabilities, then extra time and penalty shootouts when the knockouts get tight.
🏆
Meta-progression
Earn Prestige scaled to how far you got, unlock new formations, climb Manager Levels and chase records - trophies, best finish per nation, biggest upset.

The loop
One run, start to finish
Win it or get knocked out - then go again, a little stronger.
-
1
Pick your nation
Choose one of 48 countries and name yourself manager. Underdog grind or favourite's pressure - the choice sets the difficulty.

Choose a formation, build your XI around positional familiarity, and pick your tactical approach for each match.
-
3
Live every match
Scout the opponent, read the win odds, then watch it play out minute-by-minute. Change your tactics and the match changes with you.
-
4
Escape the group
Three group games decide your fate. Manage fatigue and morale - finish top two, or sweat on a best-third-placed spot.
-
5
Survive the knockouts
Round of 32 down to the final. One bad ninety - or one missed penalty - and the run ends. No second legs.
-
6
Win, or go again
Lift the trophy or bow out. Either way you bank Prestige, unlock formations and level up for the next attempt.

Beyond the run
Reasons to run it back
Permadeath ends the run, not your progress. There's always a streak to keep, an achievement to chase, or a record to beat.
🗓️
Daily Challenge
A fresh run every day - one nation and one twist (no subs, star players out, opponents bumped, no fatigue recovery), the same for everyone worldwide. Win to build your streak. It never touches your career, so it's pure bragging rights.
🏅
16 achievements
Four tiers, from your first win to lifting ten trophies - go a whole tournament without conceding, beat a side 250 Elo stronger, win on penalties, or take the title with five different nations. All tracked on your Records screen.
🎲
Boons between rounds
Clear a knockout and draft a boon - one of three permanent buffs for the rest of the run. They stack, so every run builds a little differently. Roguelike relics, football-flavoured.
📜
A career that remembers
Every run feeds your record book - trophies won, your best finish with each nation, your biggest upset and longest win streak. Bank Prestige to unlock formations and climb the Manager Levels that crank up the difficulty.
Questions
Good to know
How much does it cost?
The game is free, single-player and fully offline. There are no ads and no account to create.
Is this an official tournament game?
No. It's an unofficial, unaffiliated project - not associated with or endorsed by any football governing body or competition organiser. It avoids all official names, logos, crests and trademarks, and uses text-only player names.
Can I play past tournaments?
Yes. There are 15 editions to choose from, 1966 to 2026, and each one plays to the format of its day - 16, 24, 32 or 48 teams - with period squads. Pick your edition on the new-game screen and run it just like the modern one.
What is Spin to Win?
A cross-era draft mode. You spin a wheel of nations and years, draft one player at a time - elite squads come up rare - and build a Dream XI from any era. Once all eleven slots are filled, you play your all-stars through a 32-team knockout.
Do daily challenges affect my career?
No - the Daily Challenge is its own thing. Everyone gets the same nation and twist each day, and your result only feeds your daily streak. It never awards Prestige, trophies or achievements, so you can take a swing with nothing to lose.
What does "roguelike" mean here?
Each run is a single attempt at the whole tournament. Lose a knockout, or fail to get out of your group, and the run ends - there's no reloading a save. Between runs you keep your unlocks and progress, so you come back stronger.
Are the squads and ratings real?
Player names and ratings are gameplay approximations, not an official dataset, and team strengths are seeded from approximate World Football Elo. The game ships text names only - no photos or crests.
Which platforms is it on?
It's built for iPhone and coming to the App Store. An Android version may follow.
Do I need an internet connection?
No. Everything runs on-device. Once installed, you can play anywhere with no connection.
Your run starts at kickoff.
