Pocket GM: Basketball Sim 4+

It’s what you’d expect to enjoy if you play PGMFootball; It’s a more Madden version of football for IOS. The current presentation for the layout is welcomed for viewing rosters, negotiating with players. It was something I very much enjoyed in PGMFootball. However simulating through weeks can be a bit disorienting when advancing through weekly games of every team in the league. If there was a filter to only see my own team match ups in a whole week it would make progressing through the season so slow. Overall though, I’m wading through to a championship, and to be the best GM in history.

Thanks!

I’ve played about 5 seasons so far. It’s not bad, well designed, but not a lot to do during the season. Still, the rise and fall and rise again of a franchise is there and it’s well done.

One positive for sure is that if you appreciate the game of basketball, all these little 1’s and 0’s procedurally generated basketball players will do everything in their power to be better basketball players. They aren’t spouting off about practice or politics or buying yachts or getting into trouble (okay, sometimes they fight or decide not to play for you when you tank), but mostly they just love the game they’d die for. It’s great!

Loved the football game so went and tried the beta, even the first version of the beta was great. And only after a few months of hard work, Jon was able to make a casual basketball game that is super fun and easy to get the hang of. Due to the smaller rosters and draft it’s way easier to sim 5-10 seasons in the same time it would take for 1-3 in the football sim game. Easy game to get sucked into! The draft lottery is an amazing feature and if you go on the Reddit and download a custom nba roster it’s like 2k franchise mode on the go.
