One swipe at a time, you ARE the gaffer. Touchline Tyrant is a swipe-to-decide football management game. Every card is a decision. A furious chairman, a wantaway striker, a tabloid stitch-up, a pre-match presser — and you settle it with a flick left or right. Keep the dressing room, the boardroom and the terraces onside long enough, and you might just build a dynasty. Get it wrong and you'll be "sacked in the morning". SURVIVE THE BOARD Six meters decide your fate: Board Confidence, Fan Support, Squad Morale, Fitness, Funds and Media. Every choice pushes them around, and there are no easy answers. please the board and the fans turn; splash the cash and the accountant faints. Let any of them hit zero and your career is over. PICK YOUR CLUB, PICK YOUR FIGHT Your club is your difficulty: - Easy: Kingsbridge United, the league's strongest side. Win the League Title. - Medium: Pelham Vale. Win the League and the FA Cup (the Double). - Hard: Greyfriars Town, relegation favourites. Win the League, FA Cup and Champions League (the Treble). A LIVING CLUB Play a full 38-game league season, fight through the FA Cup and the Champions League, wheel and deal in the transfer window, and blood a wonderkid from the youth academy. Face the press before big games, weather club scandals and one-off incidents, and read the back pages turn on you as your media standing slides. EVERY CAREER IS DIFFERENT A deck of incidents, branching outcomes and delayed consequences means no two reigns play out the same. Chase achievements: the Double, the Treble, a ten-game winning run, every meter maxed at once. across careers that can run for twenty seasons.
