Pocket GM 3: Football Manager - Short Game Review

1K View2022-12-29

Pocket GM 3: Football Manager is a football management mobile game where you can play as football manager trying to create an ultimate football franchise. I was quite excited to see that I had the ability to sign, trade and draft players just like a real manager. With these options, surely I was looking forward to create a best team with very high possible overall ratings.

Looking into the gameplay, you play as a manager for a standard set of players and rosters or you can just generate random players and rosters to spice the things up. I really loved this feature in the game as this could make the gameplay more challenging and new every time I start a new game. We can save the game progress in multiple save slots in this game. You can play the game in various difficulty and reputation levels which I think is fantastic as this allows you to try out your performance level at various modes with possibly different gameplay styles and strategy. I really appreciated how the game showed the players, teams and game standings stats in a very detailed way. You can weight out your players and team based on their defense, offense and overall stats. These stats are the fundamentals for creating an ultimate team in this game. While playing the game, you are shown the match events in a very exciting announcement way as the game change the tides depending on the performance level of the opposing teams. I really loved the detail of the gameplay events announcement which could give me an overview of how well my team or opposing team is performing in the field.

This game is purely a football management simulation game where you can just simulate the game for the results and work out with the stats to progress through the game. I had expected a bit more out of this game where I could play the game as well with my players doing short pass, deep pass, touch down, penalty and so on. But this game does not offer such gameplay mode. None the less, I was quite impressed by the office staff management as well in this game. You can manage staffs like coaches, scouts and physios who play vital role in the overall performance of your squad. Sadly, I was not able to enjoy any background music in the game.

Overall, this game is fantastic for the football lovers who love to play as a manager creating your very own ultimate team. If so then, I highly recommend you guys to play this game. Though you will have to purchase this game first before playing. And sadly, this game is only available on ios platform as of now. Android users will have to wait.
