Games Like Potrero - Football life sim

You start at 16 with a kitbag and two pairs of boots

Nobody knows your name. The manager calls you "kid". It is a long road from

here to a statue, and most players never make it to the plaque.

DE POTRERO is a football career game where you play as a single player:

yours. You do not pick the squad or sign anyone. You decide what to do with the

ball when it reaches you, and you make your living from it.

The match is played by deciding

Every match comes down to a handful of moments that actually matter. The ball

drops to you in the box with the keeper closing you down: do you go low and

safe, or do you go for the impossible angle? Nobody tells you which one is

the easy one, or what your odds are: you read the play, you go with your

gut, and you live with what happened.

Set pieces and one-on-ones are played as quick time events, and the bigger the

league, the more they ask of you.

A career is not played on the pitch alone

What is in the game

A full career runs fifteen to twenty seasons and plays out over a couple of

afternoons. No two are the same.

The clubs, leagues and competitions are invented. Any resemblance to reality is

folklore, not a licence.
