Astonishing Basketball Manager is not your usual basketball game. It's not only about stats and ratings. It's not just drafting prospects, trading players, exploring strategies and signing an all-star player, or building a hardwood dynasty. In this game, you're writing your own basketball gm and coach life story with one goal in mind: win the Cup.

*Play offline for free, whenever you want, wherever you want, as much as you want! Play the game during your commute, slam dunk during your lunch break, or sign stars during the commercials. It's the ultimate basketball manager game!

*A living world
ABK features a deeply simulated world. Fans are posting about your team. Players send you messages about their contract. Or you might have to decide what's for dinner. Not even mentioning the scary coach Regina Dargor!

*You're the basketball manager! Step into the game, call for a timeout, and replace your tired veterans with some young talented players to dunk on the other team, or ask them to defend the paint more tightly! Adapt your strategy and coaching systems to feed your shooting guard more or prevent the other center from rebounding too much. All your choices as coach and manager/gm have consequences.

*The training system makes it even more important to scout college basketball players from a multitude of universities, and draft future stars to create the ultimate team! Don't forget to build your arena and add shops to attract more fans to the game. Review your tactics and show the others who's the best coach.

*Follow the scoreboard, the rankings, and the reactions from the fans, reporters and players. Or write on social medias using the team's account! You can also post your statistics online to compare your metrics with the other GM!

*A fierce online competition
While the entire solo mode can be played offline, you can also decide to play online at any time, and participate in one of our many multiplayer modes! Try to become the King in the Astonishing Contest. Or impress other basketball coach in one of the daily events like Rookie Friday.

*My Franchise Player
Tired of being a basketball manager and coach? Then play as your own franchise player, go from team to team to win championships, become an All-Star, sign with sponsors and buy shoes to get the highest score!

Train your players, from drafted rookies to all-stars, it's your job as basketball manager and coach to find the rookies who have the potential to become legendary basketball stars and build a dynasty with the best strategy.

Ratings and reviews

It's fun but it seems that it locks really good things behind a pay wall. There's added management that really doesn't give you any benefit outside of splitting your attention. Training points are so slow to get, by the time you have enough to get anybody any useful training your roster has changed about 5 times. Your budget cap situation never gets any better and it seems at least half the league has a higher budget cap than you.

EDITED REVIEW In Progress Game baits you into confidence. Team falls apart during middle of 3rd Quarter, everytime. Stats make little to no sense nor are they explained using consistent vocabulary. The in game decisons make little sense and often punish you for making the ideal decision or players just stand there, defeating the purpose of the option. Overall, the game needs to focus and refine the core gameplay, management, stats, and balance before continuing to add a more bloat.

EDIT: the stats are unrealistic. Point guards literally cannot get a single rebound. For their entire career. Fix this! However, it's still extremely fun for all those Madden/NBA 2k franchise people. Has enough depth to keep you engaged and coming back for more. I like that there are no overall ratings so you can't just load up on whoever has the highest rating. It forces you to look at stats and actually pay attention to how the player performs. This is absolutely worth a download!
