Your player’s baseball career keeps moving, even when the app is closed. Widget Baseball is a single-player career simulation built around your Home Screen. Create a fictional player, choose how they train and compete, then follow every game, promotion, award, and turning point from the app or widget. TWO WAYS TO BEGIN • Start as a Pro Create a hitter or pitcher, complete five initial training sessions, enter the draft, and begin your first 143-game season the next morning. • Start in Youth Baseball Begin in first grade and progress through 12 in-game days. Choose training priorities, schools, and career paths; face rivals and injuries; chase regional titles and Koshien; then carry the same history and abilities into the pro draft. A CAREER THAT MOVES WITH THE CLOCK Games progress automatically from 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. One real day is one pro season—or one school year in the youth career. Open the app whenever you like to review every result and decision. FOLLOW THE ACTION FROM YOUR HOME SCREEN The medium widget shows your player, club, current level, season progress, recent results, key stats, goals, and major career events. With two player slots unlocked, place two widgets and choose a different player for each. BUILD A COMPLETE BASEBALL STORY • Hitters, starters, relievers, and closers • Fictional Japanese and North American clubs • First Team, Farm Team, Major, and Minor careers • Trades, free agency, contract decisions, promotions, and demotions • Postseason series and the World Series • Detailed season and career statistics • Awards, records, milestones, rivals, and retirement stories • Optional Game Center rankings for season, career, amateur, and individual-stat records • iCloud backup through Game Center Saved Games, plus manual save export and import LANGUAGE SUPPORT Switch between Japanese and English on the title screen or at any time in Settings. The selected language is also used by the widget. FULL ACCESS — ONE-TIME PURCHASE The free version includes one professional player and the youth career through elementary school. The non-consumable Full Access purchase permanently unlocks junior-high and high-school play, a second simultaneous player, and overseas free agency for all current and future players. Full Access is not an ad-removal product. Optional special-training sessions require one rewarded video each for both free and paid players. Regular games, statistics, widgets, and normal career progress do not show ads. No account is required. All teams and players are fictional.

部長として、名門をつくる。 あなたは、無名の高校野球部にやってきた「部長」。 試合の采配をするのではなく、中学生のスカウト、部員の育成、学校との交渉まで、チームづくりのすべてを任されています。 ■ 中学生をスカウトして、口説き落とす 県内の中学校を訪ねて、まだ見ぬ才能を探しましょう。カードをめくって虹が出たら、逸材確定。 性格に合わせて言葉を選び、気持ちをつかめば「内定」。 県外の注目選手には、ご両親へのあいさつも待っています。 ■ 3年間で育てる 1週間に使える行動は3回。誰に声をかけ、どう育てるかは部長しだい。 師弟関係、一般入部から花開く逸材、限界を突破する「SS」ランク―― 選手ひとりひとりに、3年間の物語があります。 ■ 伝令で、流れを変える ピンチやチャンスでは、部長のひと言を伝令に託せます。 選手の性格に合った言葉なら、試合の流れが変わります。 ■ 甲子園をめざす 夏の県大会、秋の大会、そして春と夏の甲子園。 サヨナラや全国制覇の名場面は、シェア画像で残せます。 卒業した選手はプロや大学へ。OBとのつながりが、次の世代を連れてきます。 ■ 名門への道 設備を整え、評判を上げ、学校の格を「超名門」へ。 部長としての称号を集めて、自分だけの名門校の歴史をつくりましょう。 ■ こんな人におすすめ ・高校野球が好きな人 ・選手を育てるゲームが好きな人 ・スキマ時間にコツコツ遊びたい人 ※ネットにつながなくても遊べます。セーブは端末の中に保存されます。 ※ブラウザ版で遊んでいた方は、「引き継ぎ番号」でセーブをそのまま持ってこられます。 ■ アプリ内課金について CM削除(月額)は1か月ごとの自動更新です。期間が終わる24時間前までに解約しないと、自動で更新されます。解約は iPhoneの「設定」→ 自分の名前 →「サブスクリプション」からできます。 利用規約:https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ プライバシーポリシー:https://koumane-game.com/privacy.html
