## What is Sidelines?

Put on your headset and start managing a Football Team from the sidelines. Juggle Budget, Fan Support, Team Morale and Team Success as you take on challenging decisions while you tackle your way through the League. Manage your team by swiping cards to left or right! Each decision will have an effect on the four statistics mentioned above and your Team Owners will evaluate your tenure with the team based on those stats. Your goal is to stay on the job for as long as you can and please your team's owner! Let's see how long you will last on the team. Every single decision you make will decide your success in the American Football League! Your decisions can win you trophies or they can get you fired!

**How to Play and FAQs**

• Put your finger on the card and swipe it right or left, don't let go of your finger before reading your possible options below your card in the highlighted area. Card's outlines change color when you are over a drop area. Left is indicated by green, right is indicated by red. Decide what choice you want to make, minding the four statistics. You will be fired if your success reach 0 and you will see the game-over window.

• Does the game have an ending? Currently there is no end to the game, you can coach the team as long as you want. *We will implement a story function as an American Football Coach in the upcoming updates and you will have the option to continue after the story ends to see how far you can go.*

### 3/5 — It’s a nice game... too many ads for me

*2020-11-10*

This game is a well made game, I’ll give it that, but it lacks in much content. You have cards and you swipe them left and right with set responses (I’m not knocking on the set responses, it’d be pretty hard to make custom responses a thing) and there are not many variety of the cards. Also, with the combination of ads it doesn’t make it the most enjoyable of experiences, I hope you can update this game and make a bit better!
