FusionSim is a football (soccer) season simulator with more than 20 tools you won't find anywhere else. Play the rest of the season out 10,000 times, keep simulating until the impossible happens, travel decades into the future, replay the past and rewrite the rules of the game. It isn't a manager game and you don't coach a team. FusionSim is for fans who want to know how a season could end, and how often the "impossible" really happens. THE TOOLS • How Many Sims Until: pick any scenario, like your club winning the title, and keep simulating until it finally happens. • Time Travel: play season after season of the English football pyramid and watch clubs rise and fall. A free account covers the top two divisions for 5 seasons. Pro adds the next two divisions and 60 seasons, and Pro+ covers the whole pyramid for up to 120 seasons, cups included. • Sims Until Time Travel: travel through the pyramid, season by season, until your scenario comes true. • How Many Times In: play a season thousands of times and count how often anything happens. • Generator: change how a real season plays out, then simulate it once or thousands of times. • League Switch: move clubs into a different league and see how the season goes with them in it. • Points Deductor: dock points from any club and see where everyone finishes. • Simulator, What If Simulator and Fixture Simulator: set how strong every club is, lock in the results you want, or play out a match between any two clubs, even sides that could never meet. • Time Machine, Replay the Past and How Many Sims Retro: go back to a season from history and play it again, as it was or rewritten your way. • League Creator: build your own league from clubs across history, then simulate it. • Custom Rules: change the laws of the game, from points for a win to no draws, and see who comes out on top. • Table Predictor: call the final table and score your call against thousands of simulations. • Share Mode: turn any projection into a card to send to friends. • Live Hub: every covered match on one board, with win chances that move as the game goes on. DAILY GAMES True or False, Which is Rarer?, Simdle and Name All Ten. Play them every day to earn credits. EVERY LEAGUE, PROJECTED Behind the tools sits a projection for 188 leagues in more than 100 countries: who wins the title, who goes up, who goes down and who reaches the continental places, plus every club's projected finish. Eight tiers of English football, the top divisions and second tiers across Europe, leagues across the Americas, Africa, Asia and Oceania, women's leagues, and domestic, continental and international cups. Everything updates as results come in. WITH A FREE ACCOUNT • Every simulation tool except League Creator, at free-plan limits, and all four daily games • The projected table and headline chances for every league • Every club's profile and projected finish • Live scores and match state for every covered game FUSION PRO • Deeper race views, from the race for the continental places to the relegation battle, head-to-head records and magic numbers • Live title and relegation chances that move with every goal • Bigger and faster simulations in every tool FUSION PRO+ • Everything in Pro, with every tool at its maximum • League Creator: build your own league from clubs across history • Full interactive distributions for every league HOW IT WORKS Every remaining fixture is simulated and the season is played to the end. That is repeated 10,000 times, and how often each club finishes in each place becomes its chances. The numbers refresh as results come in. Simulation tools use credits. Every plan includes a weekly allowance, and the daily games earn more. Plans and prices are shown in the app. FusionSim is independent and not affiliated with any league, club, federation or governing body.
