Basketball Agent: Manager Sim Reviews

College years

Love the game and how you build up the players and negotiate. I would like the option though to be able to convince your players to stay in college and develop for a year o two extra unless player is set on declaring. In the middle of season I feel there is little to do and I am speeding through way too fast.If there was something to do during season that would make this game a ton better

Best manager

Tinylobstersss

I’ve tried a lot of managers and this one is the best... Hard and simple when you get the concept and you don’t win every time like in some other games. You also don’t lose all the time like, again some other games. There isn’t a reward for writing a review and I usually don’t write reviews, but in this case, this game is way too good to not applaud them for making it. ????

Enjoyed it

Finished the game too. I will say that I felt the game underachieved a lot. I spent $3.99 and all it is, Sign players to your agency, sign them to contracts, sign them up for endorsements, repeat. I believe this is the start of the game so if I can give you guys a few pointers for the next update, here it is, 1) No more college endorsements, yeah I guess it's cool to get a little bit of money for them in a season where you're struggling but it takes away from the genuine experience. 2) The bidding wars for players should be a lot more entertaining, if I decline a contract for a player at 100 skill, it may take 4-5 weeks for another offer. I feel like players from 85-100 skill should have heavy offers the first few weeks while 75-84 are targeted more later in the weeks. 3) Trading, the players will want to be traded and sometimes they have years left on their contract, you should add an interaction with the GM where you can talk to him about trading your client, discussions for a new contract, help him build a Superteam. 4) Team rankings, I have clients that want to join better teams but sometimes I don't even know what team they want to join or what type of team. 5) Rosters, if you guys add Rosters to this game it would give it a real diverse scheme. It could determine if your player would have success there or not in which you as an Agent should determine wouldn't be a good place for your client unless the team plans on trading their current player at that position. (Example would be if you have a 95 skill PG, and the Jazz have a 95 skill PG, you talk to the GM about the situation and if he says he will trade the player currently on the team or if he believes they can coexist will determine if you sign your player there. 6) more failures, I'm not talking about the players, I'm talking about teams not being able to give clients what they want so they become disgruntled with you because you got them on that team but now they want out

Great but

Don’t really wanna pay for a game like this just don’t see the point super fun tho

Can’t buy full game!

GoodTrialBut

When prompted to buy the full game ($3.99), the game didn’t allow me to purchase it. Good game though, and if iTunes allows me to buy it, I would love to have it.

One problem

Overall, the game is good, but there is a small bug that U really need you to look into. Whenever I am looking at Rival Agencies, if I click on an agency, it will show me all of its players. But if I try to click on a player, it exits me out of the game. Please fix this.

Here are some suggestions...

I absolutely love this concept! It is really neat to feel like you own a huge sports management group. Just a few suggestions (for if you guys are even still updating this) 1.) It is against NCAA rules for college players to have endorsements, fix that 2.) Be able to take in 19-21 year olds, maybe even veterans, too 3.) Add some sort of team loyalty system to have loyalty also be a factor in a player and you’s decision in the offseason 4.) It should be easier for an Undrafted, or heck even just in general, to make it to the NBA, seriously, one time I had a 19 year old with an Avg of 8.1 not make it to the league (he made the D-League but was cut after a year like what?!) if you mean to tell me that a player with a B rating especially at that age then y’all must be trippin on acid or something! With a max of 10, that doesn’t make sense at all. Also, it’s just boring to have to have a full roster of EuroLeague players, with all due respect for all those Euro guys. :( 5.) And in my opinion the most important, you should have the ability to encourage college prospects to stay in school to develop more. Sure, it is realistic to some extent (especially now a-days with the “one and done” culture) to have these cats go pro right away, but I find it would be 99.9% of the time for the player to stay in school to get better Once again love this game! Keep it up fellas! Hope you put these suggestions into consideration!

Good but could add on

It’s to easy and gets pretty boring once you reach the end and buy everything so I listed some things that could make it more fun 1. Difficultlys, when making a new game you should be allowed to use a certain difficulty 2. See Team standings 3. Better simulation, instead of simulating week to week you should be allowed to simulate to mid season or to the end 4. Allow us to edit the players names

Fun, but...

Super fun game with very addicting gameplay. I love the negotiation factor as well as the frustrating but understandable client cap. I also like how you don’t have to follow basketball necessarily because the game concept is easy to understand. However, I don’t like that they cut you off at the start of your approach to super-agent stardom. I have played many different storylines, and in each one the four season limit cut me off right when I had multiple prospects who were likely to be drafted and multiple players likely to sign with NBA teams.
