German classic soccer manager game that despite its simplicity was one of the icons of the genre in 1990s.

Bundesliga Manager was one of the games that reshaped the genre in the early 1990s - while most of the titles at this point were just text games Bundesliga Manager was introducing fancy interface and quite impressive animations to describe match events. Behind the facade it was still a quite simple game, but the facade was impressive enough to make this game an icon.

Original game simulated all of the German competitions - Bundesliga (plus lower divisions), DFB Pokal (domestic cup) and international cups. In available divisions you can choose any team but no matte what you will start in the lowest division. Player skills were described using only three parameters: skill (called Technik), stamina (called Kondition) and form (would you believe, called Form).

But what made the game so attractive for the era, was the introduction of animations that were showing the goal chances. To be fair, they were rather simple, lacked details, but just the fact that you could see something else than just text description of what happened was enough to keep the soccer management fans off the streets. The animations also had different endings, so they still kept you wondering what happened even after hours of gameplay.

A game with just a single country fully simulated does not sound impressive, but back in the early 1990s it Bundesliga Manager and its improved version called Bundesliga Manager Pro were the kings of the hill.
