New Star Soccer lets you create and control a new football player as he moves through the ranks of the football league.

You can specify everything, from your player's nationality, team and division, to selecting his strengths by assigning a fixed number of points across various skills (flair, strength, pace, passing etc.).

Once this is done the game begins, with a full fixture list for each season.

Click the 'play' button and the next games in the fixture list are played and the results stored. When it comes to your player's next game, you are presented with a running text commentary of key elements of the game.

Certain situations will require your intervention to make a decision on how your player acts, like whether to pass or shoot, for example.

His performance after these decisions will affect his skill levels, which decrease or increase accordingly.

This will affect his relationships with his team-mates, manager, fans and supporters, so there is plenty for you to keep an eye on.
