#1 Hattrick

(24.05.2009, 15:15:00) The free simulation game we like best is Hattrick, an online, browser-based, football management game (MMOG) developed in Sweden. Currently the game contains 124 different countries, each with its own league pyramid, and 47 different language versions (since October 3, 2008).

The basic idea of Hattrick is to manage a football team wisely, whether it be in buying and selling players, setting the team's lineup, or expanding the arena to the perfect size. Every user in Hattrick has a team of his/her own. The user has wide control over their team, and gameplay is mainly limited by economic and tactical restrictions. Many different types of teams exist within Hattrick; the team's type is generally shaped by the training program set up by the user, as well as the formations played.

The game is free to play, though there is an optional premium Supporter Service as well as a Mobile Service, both available by in-game purchase. As with any manager game, the player must assign positions to the players and choose among some basic tactical and strategic options. Hattrick is always under development, and the game developers often add new features to the game.

"Would be nice to see some truly creative ideas"

(27.06.2007, 14:28:55) Hattrick is one of the browser games that made it. From being a small local Swedish project with about 2,000 users in 1998 it became a big player and is now scratching the 1,000,000 players mark.
