Indie Wrestler

I love the large options of independent promotions and wrestlers you get to choose from. The three mini games are good too though I’d like to see a few more. Promo system and feud system is great. The contract system is okay, a little tricky at times, but it’s ok. In my opinion, this game has potential to grow and be even more great. The only issues I have is that sometimes advancing to the next day freezes the game and I have to close and reopen. Also some promotions randomly stop booking me and I’m stuck under contract with that promotion. For example, I have 1 date left with ASW and our relationship is at 25 because they won’t book me, release me, or extend my contract so I’m softlocked there. Also it is indeed very hard to get higher up the cards as you grow. I do wish there was a progression meter so I can know how much I gotta work to achieve the next tier. Regardless, those things don’t affect my rating for this game. 5 stars for sure. I’d love to see more match variety like triple threats and four ways. I see several promotions have tag teams and stables with their team names over certain wrestler’s names. I’d love to see tag team matches added with more tag teams in promotions, tag title belts and the ability to form a team with someone and go after it.

Great game & exactly what I was looking for when it comes to wrestle manager game. As an American Fan I love seeing the different NA leagues and can’t wait to join Paradigm to fight Jody & Myron!! Contract mechanics are my main complaint. It isn’t clear how many contracts a promoter wants to sign you. I have 45+ contracts and the lvl 2 promoter won’t book me cuz insufficient dates. The games website has this twice in the FAQ and nether clarify how many contracts. Leading me to just keep asking every time I get new contracts, then having to say no to a great deal which pisses off the Promoter. Other ppl complain about the 3 mini games. I think they’re solid but just need a couple more for variation. The promo mechanics are fun & id love to see new phrases added! Def has a ways to go, but for a market almost untouched this game is solid!

If you’re a wrestling fan, you’ll enjoy this game. It has a solid foundation, there is so much they can do to expand this game like have your wrestler keep their stats instead of resetting each level up, forming alliances, tag teams, weekly rankings within each promotion. It gets repetitive after awhile, but it’s addicting and I look forward to the future.
