Idle Eleven - Mobile Game Review

I'm continuing to share the mobile games I've been playing with you lately. You probably aren't surprised that I'm playing soccer games since I'm really into soccer these days, but I don't actually play soccer games that often. I think the last one I played was FIFA, but even that was a long time ago.

As the name Idle Eleven suggests, it's a game where you keep earning even when you're not actively playing it. You have players, and they keep generating income for you.

You can claim daily rewards in the game. Gold Bar is the currency you use to buy everything special in the game. Building Permit is a special unit you need to upgrade your stadium.

The glowing yellow button you see at the bottom right of the main screen takes you to the shop. You can also claim free rewards here every day. You can buy things with real money, but I won't show you that because I don't recommend it.

Using Gold Bar from the section just above the shop, you can purchase financial or football-related upgrades. You can reduce the training cost required to strengthen your players, acquire features that boost your team's strength when you concede a goal, or increase the amount of money you earn after winning a match.

You can change your team's formation from the main screen. While not all formations are available, there are many different ones. My favorite is the 3-4-3 formation, which accommodates the most attacking players.

You can also open the stadium section from the main screen and upgrade your stadium. These upgrades increase your home match revenue, team strength, or revenue multiplier.

Here's a player card from the starting lineup. You see six different stats. These are the same for every player, but the importance of each stat varies by player. For example, for a striker, the most important things are shooting and strength.

If you press the Replace button, you can acquire stronger players, but you'll need money for that. Or you can acquire special players, but you'll need Gold Bars for that.

You can also see the albums in the bottom right corner of the main screen. You acquire cards when you level up or move up to a higher league. Completing these albums either increases your team's value or boosts your income multiplier.

Now let's move on to the match. You can see the value of your opponent's team and your own team. This team value ensures your players perform well in their positions and enter more positions.

Once the match starts, wait until a position opens up. You don't need to do anything in defensive positions. In attacking positions, you must choose one of the three players that appear. Generally, choosing your striker is a good idea, but if one of these three players is not a striker, the situation changes.

When you select your player, you will see the probability of scoring a goal from that position. 88% is a very good rate.

As you can see, the position resulted in a goal.

Special players have special abilities. For example, this Nessi card, which is a Messi knockoff, increases the goal conversion rate in goal positions by 16%. The 89% rate increases by 16% to exceed 100%, meaning you are guaranteed a goal.

I managed to win this match 5-0. I was clearly superior to that team, so this victory is normal. My most lopsided victory was probably 12-0.

You can see your earnings at the end of the match. You can watch an ad to triple them. If you want to progress quickly, you can use this.

After the match, the best players are selected, and they generate 5 times the income for 10 minutes. You can extend this time by watching ads if you wish. In my opinion, there's no need for that.

By the way, if you don't select a player within the given time, the game randomly selects one for you. It's best to be quick.

Don't hesitate to use your special powers to win in the game. For example, this feature reduces the chance of a goal to zero by building a wall around your goal, but it only lasts for a certain amount of time. Level 1 only lasts 12 minutes. If you're ahead by one point in the final minutes of the match, use it and make sure you win.

Remember that you have a daily match limit in this game. You cannot finish a season in one day. You usually play 4 matches a day and can finish a season in a week.
