Player Manager – Amiga – Let’s Play

Player Manager was a football management and sport sim from Dino Dini and Anco, and released in 1990. It was released after Kick Off, but before Kick Off 2, so it uses a game engine similar to the first game, but slightly more advanced, but not as advanced as Kick Off 2 which had things like aftertouch.

You take control of a 3rd division team as a player manager, and it’s your task to take them to promotion and cup glory. You can choose to control the whole team, just yourself, or just see the result instead.

It’s great fun, and I sank hours and hours into this in the early 1990s.

Equipment:
