Solid college basketball management game. My only real concern is that it can sometimes take a while to simulate large amounts of games. After all, there are hundreds of games being played, plus the recruiting calculations, injuries, and so on being calculated. It's not horrible as you can just have the game handle it while you do something else for a minute like shuffling songs or something. But it can be a bit annoying if you want to go through a season fast...all the simulations over the months are going to take a while.

This game is a sim of the entire NCAA Division 1, so it's data heavy and sparse on graphics. A fan-made mod allows you to play with the real colleges and provides gorgeous icons and floor designs. The game is addictive and stable. I've been playing every day for a month. I have a few quibbles but the game itself provides a believable experience. Well worth the money.

Honestly, I LOVE this game. I was a massive fan on the old NCAA basketball games before the stopped making them, and the itch to play a dynasty type college game has never gone away. This game fully scratches that itch, and then some! The interface can definitely be confusing at first, but I watched a guy on YouTube for a few hours before playing for the first time which helped out a lot. Also, the real life mod is 100% a must as the generic teams / conferences sucks. Can't wait to sink hundreds of hours into this game!!

I have played both the 2020 and 2022 versions and with that said, this game seems like a carbon copy. The game's interface looks similar, and there have been no changes whatsoever. There is no efficient way to create rosters with ease, and nothing new. Also, the graphic looks a bit wonky and looks outdated for a game like this. Instead of saying this game is a mess, I think it's best to say that this game needs a lot of improvement. Flesh out the editor more and add some more new features to keep the game fresh over the years. At least the real-life mod is at least a bit realistic, as the generic colleges just degrade the game substantially.

If you want to prove the coach of your favorite team is an idiot, this is your game. If you personally want to drive, shoot and rebound, look elsewhere.

There are some issues with this game, but still worth buying if you're a veteran of sports manager modes. Important to note that this is a true indie game, not produced from a large company, so some of the menus/UI are a little basic. This isn't OOTP for basketball, but that shouldn't stop you if you have been itching for a college dynasty game. Pros: - Easy mods! Go to Wolverine Studio's website and on the forums you can find a full mod with all teams, logos, coaches, etc. ready to go. Very easy to download and it comes with a full guide. - Recruiting. It's actually a bit difficult if you're not at a good school and do not have maxed out attributes. Sadly the strategies for finding good players is a little basic (who did well at the camps?). Although, you can find diamonds in the rough and stars actually play like stars which makes it all more satisfying. - Modern transfer portal. It's a little basic but very fun to use to fill in gaps or overhaul your roster at a new school. I've skipped recruiting freshman and instead went full transfer portal with success. - Prestige system. You can't turn Georgia State into a powerhouse overnight. If you consistently perform over a 5 year span, you can develop solid program prestige. Very cool system so when you leave your small school, they can continue having some success. Cons: - Nobody will hire you! I have a fully maxed coach, start every season at #1, won multiple championships, but middle P5 schools refuse to hire me. Very frustrating. - Simplistic UI - Strategies get repetitive Suggestions: - Make the transfer portal players easier to evaluate. Need to be able to see what systems a player has played in without having to select a player. More details on players in general would be nice. - PLEASE make applying for a new job more realistic. Louisville should not be denying a multiple championship level coach after a 10-25 season. - When moving to a new school, have the option to ask a player to transfer. This is very common in college basketball today when a new coach comes in. Also have the ability to sway your recruits from your former school to your new school. - Walk ons need to stop causing incidents with the team lol. What walk on is starting fights?

This game really proved what I already knew-- That I am the greatest College Basketball Coach of all time, and when I complain about how the Kentucky Wildcats are playing in the KSR forums, I should be taken seriously. PUT ME ON YOUR STAFF COACH CAL, OR MOVE OUT OF THE WAY. I clearly know what I'm talking about. /s Seriously though, I dig it. The $40 price tag is easier to swallow knowing that I will easily play this game for more than 40 hours. The UI is a bit overwhelming at first, but really starts to make sense pretty quickly. I feel like the game does a good job of giving you some direction in the beginning via the emails and alerts. All in all, I highly recommend this game to anyone who loves basketball, loves college basketball, or loves proving to all the haters that you're the greatest basketball mind that has ever lived.
