About Retro Football Management
Welcome to Retro Football Management, the game that breathes new life into classic football seasons. This simple, fun and free football manager game allows you to take control of the greatest club sides from history and complete a game in less time than it takes to finish your daily commute. We are adding new seasons every month to the game, which currently includes 40 seasons from 8 countries across 5 decades, with the European Cup and Champions League. Pick the era when you fell in love with football and manage the legends of your youth. Turn an average Coventry team into European Champions, sell the players you never liked and buy the ones you did. Unlike other Management games, your clubs past mediocrity will not stop you signing the world’s best players - assuming you have the money of course! As you play the game you will earn points for hitting various challenges, like winning 3 matches in a row or being top of the league after 10 games. Points can be exchanged for squad enhancements in the shop that will help take your team from also-rans to champions; spend them wisely to help make your club the greatest in the world. Points can also be used to unlock extra classic seasons like the 1988/1989 Italian with European Cup. The app will always be free to download and contains in-app purchases if you want to enhance your team more quickly but does not require you to spend money in order to win. It’s designed to be a fair test of your gaming skill and football knowledge; you against the computer, just like it used to be. You will start with a small squad that always is in need of some work to sell players to generate cash and then buy better ones for less; your transfer aptitude will go a long way to determining your success. The club’s board will set you season-long objectives, hit them and get rewarded with cash and stadium expansions, but if you miss them you will be fired – classic game over! You can play 5 different games at the same time, so you can build world-class sides from 5 different decades—Pele to United in the 1960s, Leeds sign Cruyff in 1973, Spurs sign Maradona to play with Gascoigne in 1988—whoever your team is, Retro Football Management gives you the chance to pack your squad with legends and dominate world football. Why wait? Download the game for free now and take a nostalgic trip through the history of gaming and football!
