More reviews have been arriving for Club Manager. Check out this great video review by Board Game Addict UK, and this detailed written review by Big Boss Battles. It's thrilling to see these positive reactions to the game!

Reviews have started to come in for Club Manager and they are really, really strong!

Tabletop Wolf said “It’s by far the best football management style game out there”! It's extremely rewarding to hear someone say that! You can see his full review here

Club Manager also got delightfully strong reviews from Were Not Wizards and What Board Game. I expect to revie more soon and will post them here when they come in.

I've recreated Club Manager within the 3D modelling program, Blender. This allows me to make photo-realistic images of the new board, and create animations. Check out the attached photo!

Following extensive playtesting with the prototype, the game board has gone through a redesign.

The changes in full: there are no longer restrictions on how many staff can visit any spot on the board. This was an unnecessary and unrealistic restriction; board meetings have been removed because they weren't particularly useful (season goals remain); youth scouting now happens much more quickly; player development happens faster too, especially for lower skilled players; there are now 6 (instead of 5) transfer market slots; team morale comes back to the main board and is proving vital for the matchday experience; graphicl tweaks have been made to the league table and the positioning of the logo.

Three prototypes for Club Manager have arrived! What a tremendously exciting moment this is for a game designer - to finally see what resembles a finished version of the game.

My first, and obvious, impression is that I've grossly oversized the game box! It's waaaay bigger than any other board game box out there. A real oversight and a good reminder to measure twice... The great news is this is a prototype so it's the place to make stupid mistakes.

I produced three copies so I can send two to reviewers and keep one at home for playtesting.
