The Program is a deep, single-player college football dynasty simulator built around one idea: you should always understand WHY things happen. Most football sims hide recruiting behind a points meter — you lead by 300, then lose the kid for no reason. The Program replaces that black box with a legible economy. Every recruit weighs five clear factors: NIL budget, distance from home, your facilities, your program's success, and your coaching staff. When a recruit picks another school, you see exactly why — "Texas offered $400K more and he's from Dallas." THE NIL ECONOMY (the headline feature) - A fully tracked in-game budget system — booster-funded, not abstract "hours" or "points." - Recruits weigh your offer against what the market says they're worth. - Fund NIL, coaching, support staff, and facilities from one budget — every dollar is a tradeoff. TRANSPARENT, REGIONAL RECRUITING - Recruits come from believable hometown distributions — Texas, Florida, Georgia and California run deep. - Distance and in-state pull matter. Your program has genuine regional reach. - No corny fake names. RUN THE WHOLE PROGRAM - Play a full season week by week — every FBS team, authentic schedules, conferences and rivalries. - A 12-team playoff, conference titles, and bowls. - Develop your roster, manage the transfer portal, allocate your budget, and build prestige over the years. - Poll rankings, Heisman race, national stat leaders, awards, and season recaps. DESIGNED FOR MOBILE, BUILT FOR DEPTH - Clean, modern, fast — a sports app that respects your time. - 100% offline and single-player. No account, no login, no servers. Your dynasty lives on your device. Authentic schools, colors, conferences and records — paired with a believable economy and geography. No licensed logos; systemic authenticity over cosmetic. Free to play. Optional in-app purchases remove ads and support development.
