Good morning everyone,
I'm Francesco Testini, game designer from Italy. My new football free print&play game is in Alpha from today.
Final Chance is a game that blends statistics, probability, observation, and luck, created out of passion and released for free so that everyone can enjoy it. It is inspired by the atmosphere of football in the late 1980s, the era of matches followed on the radio and imaginary leagues invented by kids with cards, notebooks, and a lot of creativity.
Up to 4 players join a soccer league before the last three weeks of matches are played. Based on the current league standings and the remaining fixtures, players must predict which of the 8 teams will win the league and place bids on the outcome of each game. Matches are played by drawing cards from a shared deck, which players help build by contributing their own cards. Players can use their cards to make additional predictions or to influence the game results during stoppage time. The player who earns the most rewards is declared the winner.
On BGA I added a "Go Live" mode that simulates the games being played live with stadium sound effects. I also added 16 different leagues for the History mode and 8 different leagues for the Fantasy mode. I could add more leagues in future.
