One real day is one season. Widget Soccer is a career simulation that follows one footballer from creation to retirement. MATCHES ON YOUR HOME SCREEN The Medium widget shows the live match state, selection status, goals, ratings and season record. Your career follows real time, even while the app is closed. BUILD YOUR OWN PLAYER Choose from eight positions, customise your player and complete the opening training programme. Nineteen attributes, twenty special skills, individual growth curves, ageing, injuries and suspensions make every career different. CLIMB A WORLD OF 378 FICTIONAL CLUBS Seven countries, three tiers each and 378 clubs form a complete league pyramid. Perform well to attract varied offers at home and abroad, including step-up moves, loans and returns to former clubs. PLAY FOR YOUR COUNTRY Earn an international call-up and compete in a Globe Cup every four seasons, from the group stage to the final. KEEP THE WHOLE CAREER Review season-by-season statistics, attribute growth, transfers, awards, milestones, rivals and a retirement story. Optional Game Center leaderboards cover position scores, goals, international caps and your cumulative career score. PRICE AND ADS The app is free to download. Your first player is free from creation through retirement. Continuing with a new player after retirement, or developing a second player alongside the first, requires a non-consumable one-time In-App Purchase. One purchase permanently unlocks all future player creation. There is no subscription. Optional off-season special training requires completion of an AdMob rewarded video regardless of purchase status. The one-time purchase does not remove or skip ads. Normal career progression remains available without using special training. No account is required. Game data is stored on your device. All clubs, leagues and players shown in the game are fictional. Requires iOS 17.0 or later. Languages: English and Japanese.

Verdict

The call

Widget Soccer and Stick Athlete are too close to call on the numbers: across 5 compared parameters โ€” price, ads, in-app purchases and device support among them โ€” neither pulls far enough ahead to decide it. What separates them is feature set and interface, not measurable difference.

Both are free to download. Widget Soccer sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Stick Athlete sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
