World Soccer

_World Soccer_ is a managerial soccer simulation in which the player is
responsible for the financial and athletic success of a soccer team. The world
soccer league is the home of the best teams of Europe and the player takes
over a team from the 3rd division; the goal being to become the number one in
the long run.

The game is mostly menu based in which the player can visit the medical
station, the transfer market (available athletes are searched by a scout), the
bank for a loan and of course the lineup for the next match. Each athlete has
a few statistics which should be taken into account. During the matches the
player can’t intervene besides substitutions in the half-time. The player can
watch the highlights of the match; either with animations in the 16-bit
versions or as text in the 8-bit version. Alternatively only the results can
be shown.
