App Review – Championship Manager

Developer: Eidos
Category: Games
Price: £2.99/$4.99

Championship Manager is the Rolls-Royce of management simulation games, and its appearance on the App Store caused a mixture of emotions. Excitement and fear. Excitement because we were desperate to play it, and fear because it’s one of the most addictive games on the planet. Eidos has done a good job of porting the desktop features over to the iPhone and not making the game feel overly complicated. The game is well organised and easy to follow. You can make team selections, deal with the press, buy and sell players and even job-swap your way to the top. This game is pretty expansive and needs to have time invested in it, but if you like to have a game you can turn to time after time then this is the one. A quality app.
