Heinola Games

We're re-inventing the football manager.

It shouldn't feel like Excel. It should feel like football.

Fans first. Developers second.

  • Raised on late-night savesWe've lost whole weekends to football managers and still argue about substitutions from 2009. Now we're making the game we always wanted to play.
  • Depth without spreadsheetsReal managers don't stare at forty columns. They read the dressing room, handle the board and survive the fans. That's where our depth lives.
  • A small club, by designWe're a small team from a small town, like every club worth supporting. Fewer meetings, more ideas on the pitch and care in every detail.
Our first game

Your U10 kids voted you in as the club's new manager. As a joke. Now the board wants results, the fans want miracles and the kids want the credit. Take a village club from Division 5 to the top flight.

Where we work

Made in Heinola, Finland

We work from Heinola, a small town in Finland's lake country. Long dark winters are good for two things: making games and arguing about football. No club from here has won the Champions League. We're working on it, one season at a time.
