About Pro Strategy Football 2020
\
Welcome to the 2020 evolution of Pro Strategy Football!
PSF has long been a dream game and tool for people who love coaching football, and now it's taken an explosive jump forward with the superior in-game editor! Ever wanted to create a dominant team of all stars? Maybe create a league with the best teams of the 60s (or 70s or maybe multiple decades)? Now you can!
Edit every facet of the league as a whole, every team, and every player! "Quick Set" options let you immediately set all a player's attributes, but it doesn't stop there! There are also "Quick Set" options to immediately set all attributes for the whole offense, whole defense, even the whole team!
And with the new COMPLETELY CUSTOMIZABLE RULES, create a league with your favorite college teams! Easily set your favorite team to all Superior ratings! You can set the rules for the league, for the career (which you can change each season), and even for each Quick Play game. The new customizable rules allow flexibility in setting quarter lengths, overtime rules, and more!
AND you can now edit each team's UI colors, helmets, endzones, and even their animation sprites / uniforms! Choose from various shoulder sets, helmets, legs, stripes, etc, and choose your own colors!
Of course, the meat of Pro Strategy Football has always been its realism and coaching, and that's still there, but now there's an improved play calling screen! You can now see the ratings and names of key players, and when on offense, you can even try to guess the defensive formation and try to target their weakest defender!
Also new this year is Play by Play! Viewable during the game or after the game is complete, this displays every single play of the game, and you can save the full play by play to disk!
Management and Career options are here, too! Trade current and future draft picks, shuffle your roster, choose which team drills to emphasize, and build your players! Make tough decisions on whether to keep your favorite player who’s starting to slow down a bit.
In fact, this year you can have MULTIPLE careers at the same time! You can also have multiple Single Season campaigns happening. Have a career where your team is Dallas and another where you're the Patriots! No limits!
For people new to Pro Strategy Football, it's built around a simulation engine rather than arcade play. In fact, the animation you see is really a choreography of the results that were calculated using ratings, weather, "dice" etc. Built around a complex and realistic engine, PSF is the most accurate simulation of coaching in American Football. Play the way YOU want to play – coach, manage, watch simulations. Create quick match ups, or play a season campaign, or build your team in GM/Career play and mix and match your GM and coaching skills however you want!
PSF 2020, as in every version of Pro Strategy Football, NEVER has the AI cheating - never has, never will. Crazy, frustrating things happen in real life, and they'll happen in PSF, but you'll catch good breaks, too, and this kind of real life realism makes every game exciting and nerve-wracking!
Select Basic level to play a relaxing game or choose Advanced to control every aspect of every play – who to motion, who to blitz or double team, how to shift your line, everything! And in-game help describes every feature, so you can learn football while you play! Coach, sim, or even watch a simulated game live!
PSF is nirvana for stats junkies! View team and player histories, past seasons, game stats, season stats, career stats, leaders across dozens of categories, and more!

What Steam players say

I've been searching for a while for a good football game having a career mode with fictional players with the focus on playing the games out manually as a coach calling the plays. There's not a heck of a lt of games like that out there! Some games force you to become a player and control him with a joystick. Other games put you in the general manager chair and you're not calling the games on the field but are more focused on drafts/trades and financials. Pro Strategy hits the spot that I'm after. It has all of the elements that other franchise games have, but is the only one that places the emphasis on the game by game coaching and play calling. As an extra plus, it's not text based like some other games - you get to see the plays visually in charming old-school graphics. Graphics are not state of the art, but I guarantee that you'll jump out of your seat when you see a big play develop on a crucial down in a big game - and that's what counts!5 found this helpful
have been playing this since the tom landry days in the 90's produces some astonishingly accurate results. first season (92) that i played as the cowboys went 13-3 and beat the 49ers in overtime to go to the superbowl where i beat the bills. (didn't destroy them like the real cowboys!) a really fun and immersive game.3 found this helpful
Exactly as others have described: good in game football sim. It looks like more career and GM features are coming.2 found this helpful
If you love sports management simulations, then this game is for you! The best part about this game is the deep history tracking and ability to watch the games play out in "Tecmo Bowl" style graphics. It has a basic management system now, but still so fun to play, and free agency will be coming to the 2021 version. The community has made tons of mods to play as almost any NFL team in history, as well as a really cool fictional league. It is extremely customizable (teams, players, logos, fields, rules), with more options coming in the 2021 version! Highly recommended.2 found this helpful
Might have to up the ante and buy the most recent addition. I was so pleased after this game taught me a thing or two about Football strategy and defensive play calling. But that is where it stopped being exciting. After owning my opponent and out scoring the other team, the game started slowing down and the offense of the CPU kept calling no huddle and even in the second and third quarter! Allowing each team up to 80 snaps a piece and not ending the game sooner as can be. I mean really, would you fix that glitch? Otherwise, great game and would recommend it to the average Madden gamer who wants to touch football but doesn't know something. He is only touching himself.
PSF isn't Madden and vice versa. You dont get the bells and pretty lights,. What you do get is very rare in some games. Reliability,. You launch it and it works no secret ritual you have to perform , click and go. Granted it isn't a GM or Director of Football sim but just head coach view . I do wish you could download the teams names, colors and correct player info, I would recommend it.
