Mobile is for the (comparatively) casual crowd, offering faster progress with less depth, while Touch provides the exact opposite. Both are single-player only, and offer the same modes too – Career, Create-A-Club, and Challenge. There are now two versions of Football Manager available for mobile devices, in Football Manager Mobile and Football Manager Touch. So it was only natural that the brand would move onto devices and ecosystems that people carry with them everywhere they go. And when we say dedicated, we mean people whose lives tend to revolve around the game. Sports Interactive’s Football Manager franchise has long been the mainstay for dedicated managers. Platforms: Android, iOS, and Windows Phone Score! World Goals has commentary, mo-cap animations, and even a multiplayer mode. All this, with just the flick of your fingers.įans appreciate the game’s minimal learning curve and barebones mechanics – which lets the gameplay focus entirely on setting up goals from running past defenders to putting sweet volleys past the goalkeeper. Instead of giving you the keys to a game of football, Score! World Goals has a narrow focus: recreating goals, be it domestic leagues, European cup nights and even the World Cup. It’s even got two dozen licenses, from the likes of Arsenal in the Premier League, Bundesliga’s Borussia Dortmund, Juventus in Serie A, and La Liga’s Real Madrid. Top Eleven also lets you build your own football association, and invite your friends to compete. You’ve to bid for players, think tactics, build a world-class stadium, and then challenge other managers to win games. Top Eleven is about being a manager (hence Mourinho’s involvement) and that means running the club. Developer Nordeus claims 100 million players worldwide, and it’s got enough marketing budget to rope in Manchester United’s José Mourinho.Īs for the game itself, there isn’t any on-the-pitch action. One of the oldest kids on the block, Top Eleven has gradually grown to become possibly the most played title on mobile. If you're looking for alternatives, here are the ones we love: The obvious choice for most mobile converts is EA Sports FIFA, which got a big new update this week, introducing modes that emphasise attacking and competitive gaming with your friends circle. Be it casually flicking the ball towards goal or racking your brain to manage tactics, squad, and transfers, there is something for everyone in the world of mobile football games. That’s where mobile gaming can be of help, and in 2016 there are at least half a dozen decent options to fill your time. Not all of us football fans have the liberty to spend time gaming at home, but do have long commutes which can be better utilised.
