To introduce you to the world of Lords of Football we'll be releasing a stream of articles talking in depth about the key features of the game to hopefully answer a lot of questions you have had!

To begin, we'll start with an overview of the world you govern from your God perspective. As you get to know your world and all your footballers living in it, you'll be able to control their lives , and ultimately the fate of your team. As soon as you start the game there are many activities to get absorbed in, like defining your team, setting their training exercises , getting to know their mood and behaviour. The world in which you enter is brimming full with life, from the town centre  to the clubs training  complex . Much like the real world, you'll have characters wondering around who are getting on with their lives, but can be a source of distraction to your new football team. The world will evolve and develop as your team start to make a name for themselves and become more successful, watch how the town gets behind you as you become a source of pride in their eyes.

You'll have to monitor their training by day but when night falls its time to have fun, just don't let things get out of hand or you can find your footballers in all sorts of problems before a  match.  There are numerous pitfalls waiting to weaken your team from misdemanour infractions, injuries, vices that may develop into bad habits, unpredictable weather, distractions and over inflated egos running wild!  As each of your footballers develop their own characteristics over time, you will be challenged right from the outset  in getting the best out of them, you'll be eased into it to begin with, but it'll get harder the more you play.

Ensuring your team grow into a successful club is no easy feat considering the obstacles of day to day life, that can - and no doubt will -  get in the way of your path to glory. It's your goal to take the team to the top of the  league, and whilst you'll have the tools and tips to help you along your way, the President of the club will need to be satisfied with your performance. However there are rewards to be had in the meantime through unlockable upgrades that will boost and improve your game.

Night time activities are a big part of Lords of Football's gameplay, and we'll be focusing on this at a later stage as it warrants a lot of description! There are numerous venues to take your footballers to, some of which will make them happy, but as each grows different personalities you'll have to discover which type of events work best for each footballer. some might prefer the casino to the pub, but there's a fine balance between keeping them happy and growing an addiction. Vices will come into play eventually and there are several ways to deal with them, but continual punishments alone won't help quell the excesses of that  footballer;  you'll have to find ways of controlling their behaviour through alternative means, all discoverable throughout your world in various activities. It's necessary to keep an eye on this because this can have a devastating effect on your match performance, and on the skills of the footballers that you've worked so hard to grow through training. But more on this later.

Lords of Football has created a whole new way of playing a football match, a gameplay that's never been seen before in football video games. For the first time you will have commands available that you can enforce on any of your footballers at any point during the match, it's very much like  sitting in the dug out and shouting from the sidelines. The feeling and experience you will have should be as close to the real thing as you can get. We'll explore this part of the game later as there's much to show you!

Throughout the whole world you can get up  close and personal to  the action either on the pitch, in the gym, at the pub and various other locations. In real-time the whole world animates according to what you've bestowed on your footballers, and much like a God you are controlling their every move in order to realise your grand vision. It's every  top dog's dream to have this scope of freedom, and Lords of Football offers you all of that, and more!

You will get the most fun, exciting and refreshingly new take on football. You don't need to be a football expert to start the game, you just need passion, dedication and ambition! The rest you can learn as you explore and discover the opportunities throughout this new world. Football is a beautiful game, and we've attempted to capture that and the sheer essence of fun in a whole new video game. We have loads more to share with you in the next coming months, so keep posted here on more news and in depth pieces on particular key features, and also please don't hesitate to put your questions forward and we'll do our best to answer as much as we can!
