Microtransactions in a text-based basketball simulator? Holy bologna, no thanks. $1.99 to have a star player join your team, $1.69 to get 3100 'training points' to hire coaches, etc. That might be okay if this game was f2p but it isn't. Gross. edit: typo, not Basetball.

Astonishing Basketball Manager is not your usual basketball game. It's not only about stats and ratings. It's not just drafting prospects, trading players, exploring strategies and signing stars, or building a dynasty. In this game, you're writing your own basketball gm and coach life story with one goal in mind: win the Cup.
A living world
ABK features a deeply simulated world. Fans are posting about your team. Players send you messages about their contract. Or you might have to decide what's for dinner. Not even mentioning the scary coach Regina Dargor!
You're the basketball manager!
Step into the game, call for a timeout, and replace your tired veterans with some young talented players to dunk on the other team, or ask them to defend the paint more tightly! Adapt your strategy and coaching systems to feed your shooting guard more or prevent the other center from rebounding too much. All your choices have consequences.
Build a Dynasty
The training system makes it even more important to scout college basketball players from a multitude of universities, and draft future stars to create the ultimate team! Don't forget to build your arena and add shops to attract more fans to the game..
Become a social medias star
Follow the scoreboard, the rankings, and the reactions from the fans, reporters and players. Or write on social medias using the team's account!
Train your players, from drafted rookies to all-stars, it's your job as basketball manager and coach to find the rookies who have the potential to become legendary basketball stars and build a dynasty with the best strategy.

-buys game -looks for the franchise mode that was talked about on their discord -feature is missing -asks why on discord -Dev explains that it doesn't generate as much revenue -mods threaten to ban me? (huh?)

Well I have played this game A LOT on my smartphone (its been released there for some years) and I really like it. It's quite hard to find a solid basketball manager. This one might not reach the deepest parts of a sports management game, but it really has a nice flow and rewards you if you are able to read stats :-) PROs: - easy to learn, not too easy to master - funny light storyline, starting when you are some time into the game - grades are visible, but they are often quite misleading. The game rewards you for reading stats - straightforward and satisfying gameplay with a nice flow (like the early sportsmanagement games had back in the days) CONs: - Graphic Style and optimisation is tailored for smartphones; i hope there will be an overhaul to group things better on the much bigger screen available. - has even some stadium and minor team management, but there is not too much depth in it - is lacking some better fort functions inside the game - there is a shop inside. This game is...
