  • Run your club

    Recruit, draft, trade and train. Build a list that can go the distance over a long, brutal season, under a salary cap that bites.

  • Coach the game

    Set your structures, tweak your magnets, make the team talk and tag their star. Live match day, quarter by quarter.

  • Live the season

    Eighteen teams, round-by-round fixtures, the 2026 finals format with a wildcard round, the trade period, the draft. Then do it all again.

  • Make the calls that matter

    Rest your stars or play them sore? Promote a kid or chase a veteran? The board is watching, and your job is never quite safe.

PairCall

The catch-up call you both keep meaning to have, made automatic. Pair up with one person, agree on times, and at each check-in PairCall rings both phones like a real call. Answer, talk, done.

  • Real calls at the times you chose, not another ignorable notification.
  • Video or voice. Skip a day or push a call back half an hour, and your partner sees it instantly.
  • An optional backup alarm that cuts through Do Not Disturb when a check-in is missed.
  • No accounts, no feeds, no tracking. Just a six-letter invite code and a person you care about.

The studio

Built by fans, for fans

We're a small Australian studio with a simple idea: the best games come from people who genuinely love the thing they're making.

No corporate playbook, no chasing trends. Just deep, replayable games built by fans for fans, and the occasional small app that solves a problem we had ourselves.

Whether it's the strategy of a long footy season, the chaos of trade week, or the slow climb from wooden spoon to premiership, we care about the details that make a great sim worth coming back to. More is in the works.
