About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready, folks! In Time of Soccer, you step into the shoes of a football team manager and have to guide your squad through an entire season. The goal is simple: lead your team to glory, but the path is paved with tough decisions! You'll need to be a financial wizard, negotiating TV and advertising contracts to fund the acquisition of top players and staff. Imagine a game where you're in charge of everything: players, coaches, scouts, even the marketing team! Every week, you'll compete to sign the hottest talent, and at the end of it all, your hard work culminates in an exciting match where your team's overall level is crucial. You can play solo, feeling the pressure of being the boss, or gather your friends for a fierce competition. It's pure simulation, with dice rolls adding that touch of unpredictability and card collection to assemble your dream team. If you love football and strategy, this one's for you!

How long does a game of Time of Soccer take?

A full season in the game lasts about 120 minutes, so prepare for a good amount of immersive playtime!

How many people can play Time of Soccer?

You can manage your team solo (1 player) or invite up to 3 friends to compete (total of 1-4 players).

Is the game very complicated to learn?

Time of Soccer has a medium strategic weight (3.2/5 on BGG), so it requires some attention in the first few games, but nothing a fan of management games can't master quickly.

No! The game has no language dependency, so you can play it comfortably.

Expect to find player and staff cards, dice to resolve actions and events, and tokens to manage your club's economy.

Is it more of a luck-based or strategy-based game?

It's a good mix of both! Dice rolls bring an element of luck, but strategic management of your club, signings, and planning are essential for victory.
