育成×監督シミュレーションと、迫力の3D駅伝レースが融合した長距離・駅伝ゲーム。 選手を育て、オーダーを編成し、戦略と戦術でレースを指揮する―― 駅伝チームの監督体験を、スマートフォンで本格的に楽しめます。練習・スカウト・トラック・3D駅伝・オンライン対戦まで ■主な機能 ・選手を育成する ・ガチャで選手をスカウトする ・3D駅伝でランクを上げる ・3大駅伝にチャレンジする ・記録会・トラックレースでタイムを競う ・オンライン対戦で全国のプレイヤーと勝負する ■育成モード 駅伝勝利の土台は、日々の育成にあります。選手一人ひとりの特性を見極め、スピード・スタミナ・フィジカル・メンタルをバランスよく伸ばす練習メニューを組みましょう。 スピード寄り・粘り強いスタミナ型・勝負強さ重視など、タイプに合ったメニュー選択が成長効率を左右します。 コンディション管理も監督の重要な仕事です。状態を見ながら、いつ誰を伸ばすかを判断する――それが駅伝育成シミュレーションの面白さです。 アイテムを使用すれば、能力の底上げや成長の後押しも可能。さらに、選手に合ったスキルを付けることで、レース中の展開や区間適性が大きく変わります。 同じ総合力でも、スキル構成と区間配置次第でチームの強さは別物になります。監督として「誰をどの区間に置き、どう育てるか」を考え続けるモードです。 ■ガチャモード(スカウト) ガチャを引いてランナーをスカウトし、チームの戦力を拡充できます。強力な選手との出会いが、オーダー編成の幅を広げます。 単なる人数合わせではなく、区間ごとの役割――先行・粘り・山・アンカーなどを意識したスカウトが重要です。 スキル持ちの選手や、スキルを付与できる要素を活かせば、育成だけでは足りないピースを補えます。駅伝は総合力だけでなく「適材適所」が結果を決める競技。 ガチャで得た選手を育成フローに乗せ、記録会や練習試合で試し、3D駅伝の本番オーダーへつなげる流れが、このゲームの基本サイクルです。長距離・陸上ファンにとって馴染み深い「チーム強化の手触り」を、ゲームとして味わえます。 ■練習試合・記録会・トラックレース いきなり本番の駅伝だけではありません。練習試合で実戦感覚を養い、記録会で個人タイムに挑めます。 トラックレースでは、駅伝とは異なる緊張感の中でスピードとスタミナを試せます。育成の成果がタイムや順位として見えるため、「今日の練習は正しかったか」を検証しやすい設計です。 個人の走りを磨くことが、チームの駅伝力にも直結します。 記録会やトラックで得た自信と実力を、区間配置や作戦にフィードバックしましょう。長距離シミュレーションとして、個人種目と駅伝の両輪で遊べるのが特徴です。 ■3D駅伝レース(本編の見せ場) 本格3Dグラフィックスで描かれる駅伝レースが、このアプリ最大の醍醐味です。 迫力のカメラワークで展開される襷リレーを、監督視点で観戦・指揮。順位の変動、選手の様子、コースの流れを見ながら、作戦やスパートの判断を下します。 テキスト結果だけでなく、3Dレースで「いま抜いた/抜かれた」の臨場感があるからこそ、育成と編成に意味が生まれます。ランクを上げ、より高い舞台へ進み、3大駅伝へのチャレンジを目指しましょう。 駅伝ゲームとしての熱量は、この3Dレースに集約されています。 ■オンライン対戦 育てたチームは、全国のプレイヤーとのオンライン対戦でも試せます。リアルタイムで順位を競う対戦モードで、自分の育成・編成・レースセンスが通用するかを確かめられます。ローカルでも遊べる一方、オンラインで実力を証明する楽しさもあります。 駅伝・長距離・陸上・育成シミュレーション・3Dレース・オンライン対戦を求める方へ。監督として、その一秒を削り出す体験を。 利用規約(EULA):https://ekidentest-dfa07.web.app/rule.html

You are the manager of a youth football team. You develop your players and aim to win the competitions. You choose where to start: a high school team in Japan or Korea, or the academy of a professional club in England, Spain or Germany. This is a paid app. There is no limit on how many years you can manage. There are no ads. ■ Where you start - Japan: a high school team. You climb from the prefectural league to the regional leagues and play the summer tournament and the winter championship. - Korea: a high school team. You play the weekend league in two halves, the champions' tournament, the national sports festival and the summer nationals. - England: a professional club's academy. You play an U18 league by category, the national youth cup and the U18 elite cup. - Spain: a professional club's academy. You play a regional youth league, the champions' play-off and the national youth cup. - Germany: a professional club's academy. You play an U19 league, the national finals and the U19 national cup. Each country has its own calendar, competitions, names and scenery. An academy runs on its parent club's budget, and the best players sign professional contracts with the first team. Players from other countries are on the books too. ■ Training Each week you choose a session — technique, physical, tactics, set pieces, a practice match or rest — and that decides which attributes improve. Tired players get injured more easily; rested ones improve more slowly. ■ How players develop Every player has his own growth curve and ceiling. One-to-one coaching brings on a group of attributes or a single one. Players pick up special abilities, and some get a unique ability and a nickname that stays in the records. ■ Matches Eleven players move by themselves, guided by your tactics and selection. Watch from three cameras or skip to the result. Every match records goals, assists, saves and a mark out of ten. Goal replays can be exported as video and shared. ■ Tactics You set the shape, each player's role and duty, how high the defensive line sits, how hard the team presses, and the tempo in attack. You can save up to five tactics as presets. ■ National teams There are U-17, U-20, U-23 and senior tournaments. When your players or former players are called up, their caps and goals are recorded at each age group. Players of other nationalities who play for their own country are recorded too. ■ World tournament and awards Win every major domestic competition in one season and you are invited to the Academy World Cup, where club academies from around the world meet. Each year the top ten for the world player of the year and the youth player of the year are announced. ■ After they leave Former players go on to university, the domestic professional leagues or leagues abroad. The alumni list follows their careers through to retirement. The records screen picks an all-time best eleven from former and current players. ■ Running the club You manage the funds, morale, facilities, staff, scouting, training camps and prize money. Fans grow with wins and cup runs, and show up in the crowd and the support at the stadium. ■ Rankings You can compare your records with other players online, in categories such as national titles, world titles, market value and fans. ■ Languages and currency Available in English, Japanese, Korean, German, Spanish and French. Money can be shown in yen, won, pounds, euros or dollars. ■ Saves There are three save slots, so you can run teams in different countries at the same time. Saves back up to iCloud and carry over to a new device. ■ Price This is a one-off purchase, not a subscription. The only in-app purchase is the custom player (one per in-game year, with a name, a look and a position you choose). All schools, clubs, players and competitions are fictional.

Academy Soccer Manager's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 4 weeks). On device support there is nothing between them.
