Create one baseball player and live their career from the draft to retirement in this decision-driven life simulation. Play as a catcher, infielder, outfielder, pitcher, or a rare two-way player. There's no game to control — every week, you make decisions: training menus, managing fatigue and injury risk, and negotiating your contract. Your choices shape the player's stats and career. ■ New in 3.0: Manager Mode Your retired player returns as a manager on a 3-year contract (up to 5 with an extension). No in-game calls: one decision about people each month moves the club and its players. Your old rival manages another club, and your own child may enter the draft. Free once your first player retires. ■ Features - Zero baseball controls — enjoy "raising a player" even if you're not into sports games - Choose a batter, pitcher, or two-way player, each with its own stat tracking and skills - Choose where you debut: a Japan-style, Korea-style or Taiwan-style league, or a 30-team Majors-style league — start in the Majors or work your way up from the minors - No hidden numbers — every growth formula, at-bat probability, and injury-risk formula is shown in-game - Allocate talent points at creation to decide what kind of player you'll become — growth slows as you approach your caps - Peak at 27, decline starting at 30 — the back half of a career becomes a race against time for career records - Climb up from the farm team, earn your manager's trust, fight for your position, and chase league-leading titles - One contract negotiation per year, using this season's highlights as leverage - Challenge overseas free agency: pick between two fictional leagues (30 major-league-style teams, or 10 Asian-league-style teams). An "adaptation" system means you can't perform at full strength right after the move - A fresh small weekly goal, plus stat/ability trend charts to watch your player grow - Retire with a career rank and nickname recorded on the all-time leaderboard, then pick a flavorful "second career" path - Earn Hall of Fame points to boost your next character's talent — or start as a "successor" inheriting from a past legend - Hall of Fame Museum: every retired player leaves memorabilia from their real career — unlock it with Hall of Fame points and display it across six illustrated rooms - Pick your display language in Settings — Japanese, English, Korean, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Spanish and Portuguese are all fully supported (the app also follows your device language)
