Carrera
A whole playing career, one decision at a time
How to play
- 1You name your player and pick the country he starts in. Then you choose a position and a club, and build him by taking one quality off each of six legends: the ones that suit your position are the ones that lift your overall.
- 2Every season plays itself. What you decide is everything around it: training, injuries, the press, the dressing room and offers from other clubs. If an answer takes you out of the club, you pick the one you leave for.
- 3Every season you play one match by hand: you are told who you are up against and you choose what to do with the ball. In Inazuma mode you also choose which special move you do it with, if you are carrying one worth using.
- 4In Inazuma mode you pick up special moves as you go. You can keep four, each of them worth two attributes for as long as you hold it, so a fifth costs you one of the others.
- 5Some decisions can end two ways and show you both with the odds, and those odds come from your own attributes: an outrageous dribble comes off far more often if you built him quick. The rest warn you about nothing.
- 6When you retire you get the verdict, the whole career season by season and a link for somebody else to read it.
FAQ
- Is it always the same career?
- No. Every time you start, a new career is dealt, with different clubs, different events and a different ending, as often as you like.
- Can I lose?
- There is no defeat, there is a verdict. You can finish on the bench in the second division or as a legend, and the difference is what you chose along the way.
- What does someone opening my link see?
- Your whole career, decision by decision, exactly as you played it. The link carries no stored result, it is recomputed when it opens.
- Is the Inazuma mode the original game?
- No. It is a fan tribute. The characters, teams, special moves and artwork are from the series and belong to Level-5; this is not an official product and has no connection to them.
