Also want to shout out the premium modes - tactical builds for people who want to go deeper on formations, the top-50 world players mode, and the all-time legends mode. Nice range of options for both casual daily play and the more hardcore squad-building crowd. Overall a really solid, well thought out game - nice work!

Prediction bracket mode is a really smart addition too - building a perfect-bracket prediction and having it scored live against the actual World Cup results gives the game a reason to stay relevant for the whole tournament instead of being a one-and-done builder.

Head-to-Head links: sending a link straight to a friend and racing to build the better XI from the same spins is such a good idea for a couch/group setting. Way more fun than just posting screenshots back and forth.

Daily Global Challenge: this is probably my favorite mode. Everyone gets the exact same 11 spins each day, so it turns into a real shared puzzle - you're comparing notes with friends on who they picked for the same nations instead of just comparing random RNG. Nice way to keep people coming back daily.

Really enjoyed building a squad in this one. The wheel-spin mechanic for nations is a clever twist since you can't just cherry-pick a dream XI - you have to commit to whichever country comes up and pick your favorite from their real 26-man roster. Makes each run feel different. Leaving some more specific thoughts on the different modes below.

Quick update — I added real in-game screenshots and a few new modes since launch:

• Daily Challenge — everyone gets the same 11 spins, global leaderboard. New one drops at midnight ET.
• Perfect Bracket — predict all 12 groups + your champion, scored live vs real World Cup results.
• Legends mode — draft from the all-time greats (Pelé, Maradona, Cruyff, Zidane).
• Tactical mode — the wheel picks a position, you choose from 5 players.

All 48 official squads are in, ratings tuned, no signup, plays in the browser in ~60s a round.
