NUTMEG! is a nostalgic football manager game with a deckbuilding twist, set in the '80s and '90s. Relive the days when the tackles were as hard as the mullets were long and football was about football.
NUTMEG! A Nostalgic Deckbuilding Football Manager
SteamDeckbuilding goes in two-footed on football management!
Become the gaffer of a classic football team and embark on a nostalgic 20-year journey up and down the English football Divisions through the 1980s and 1990s.
Pick your line-up and formations, and challenge the opposition in a fast-paced card battler with three points on the line in every match.

The only football game where getting cards is a good thing! Earn card packs by completing challenges. Combine cards to enhance your deck and bully the other team off the pitch.

Route one? Tiki-taka? Counter-attacking? Refine skills and strategies in training to earn extra card packs and humble your opponents when Saturday comes.

Pick your club, manage player transfers, scout and develop youth talent, and scrap for every place across four Divisions.

Manage the entire club from your desk. Control the finances, talk with the press, and hire and fire backroom staff. Don't get too distracted by any retro games on the computer...

Immerse yourself in some of the most iconic eras of English football. Unlock new clubs each season and decide whether to be a journeyman manager or a one-club hero.

Your support will help make a lasting impact, as Nutmeg has teamed up with both the Joey Beauchamp Foundation and the Dalian Atkinson Legacy Trust as our official charity partners. £0.05 from every sale will be donated to each of our charity partners.

Named in honour of former Oxford United player Joey Beauchamp, The Joey Beauchamp Foundation aims to address the pressing need for mental health support and awareness within the Oxfordshire community via collaboration and community engagement.
The Dalian Atkinson Legacy Fund, established by the family of the former Aston Villa, Ipswich Town, and Sheffield Wednesday player, is dedicated to celebrating Dalian’s lifelong passion for sports and its positive impact on our community. The aim of the fund is to inspire young people to actively participate in sports, fostering their growth and well-being.
