League Challenge

A football strategy much like Football Manager and Big League Soccer. Graphics aren't outstanding but there's reasonable skill involved in the management tasks. Four leagues and cup competitions to take part in.

N. Highlight sequences are slow and feature a dot for a ball.

Sonics 0%
N. Not a sausage. Brian.
