Tennis Elbow Manager Reviews

TEM is an extremely detailed tennis manager game. Although it is essentially Tennis Elbow 2013 without the actual gameplay, there is a lot of fun to be had. You can see a 15-year career go by in 15 hours and find yourself matched up against Nenad Djakavec, Riccardo Fidirir, Ruben Nodol, and Patrick Sompros.

This is a very good tennis-management game. As far as I know, this game is the only one of its kind in Steam, so if you like tennis, then buy this particular game, since it is very well developed. And for those who want to go deeper, there is a newer version of the game - Tennis Elbow Manager 2, already with a Russian translation)

What a great hidden gem. Get's a little bit grindy after a few hours, but that's to be expected from a tennis simulator. Can't wait to try TEM2.

Very good game! However, ive seen many comments on how people have updated it, but i never seem to have a update available to me?

fun to play, though a bit frustrating at times, when no matter what you do your player keeps losing and losing in unrealistic situations, not even playing in the hardest mode.......

This is a great game, I've been playing it since 2009, The developer has made updates yearly since then for players, tournaments. I purchased the game again just so i could have it added to my steam library, money well spent for all the time i have played this game.

Really good challenging game; was finding it really easy to get to the top 10 but then a massive struggle to get to the very top and consistently win majors. All very realistic statswise and accurately reflects the tour. Totally recommend it to all tennis fans.

Tennis is a sport that receives woefully little attention from game developers, and yet it is a wonderfully gripping sport. Not all of us want to play ridiculously Hollywood-esque "first person simulations" where graphics and endorsement by, say, the world's top ten players only are traditionally considered to be essential elements of the game mix. And here is a game that takes a very different view, illustrating brilliantly that there are STACKS of very good players, thousands of tournaments and that to get to the top it is a LONG HARD STRUGGLE To me it doesn't matter that the players did not endorse this, I think all the top 100 and more are based on real players anyway and it can be quite fun to work out who is who (pretty sure I saw Mark Venus in there, so the knowledge of the sport from the developer is top class) What makes this game so much fun is that it is unashamedly full of little details which can become crucial (for example if your player stops practising an element of his/her game he/she will actually get worse at it over time. I would be delighted if enough people invested in this so that one day perhaps there could be a version with the option of viewing matches in a slightly more hi-res format but it doesn't actually matter that much. If the players found out about the game and eventually endorsed it that would be fab too

If you like Tennis and/or sports management games I think you will like this. No flashy graphics but the game is good fun, and the dev is very responsive to problems as well which is very nice.

When I first opened Tennis Elbow Manager, I was like, 'What is this stupid mobile game-looking crap?". But then I played it, and kept playing it, and kept playing it. There is a lot more to this game than first meets the eye. I'm really enjoying it, and getting that, "I'll play just a little bit longer" disease that we're all aware of. The game seems to revolve around one character that you create, although you can sign contracts with other players too. You need to really think about how to develop your players properly. It's harder than it seems. The only knocks I have on this game are that it seems really hard to make money (which you need to hire better coaches). Only the major tournaments seem to pay anything. Also for some reason the game ends when your created character retires. I also think 19.99 is too much for this content, even though the game does play well. I'd wait for a sale. This is worth picking up if you like management sims. A great effort with excellent game balance from what appears to be one dev.
