MMA Simulator
MMA Simulator is one of the most detailed text-based simulations where you have the unique perspective of owning your own MMA gym and taking the fight world by storm!
Features:
- Create your own fighters
Create the fighters YOU want to see fight! Whether that a striker, grappler, or submission artist – you can create them and add your own custom portraits.
- Create and edit events
Take on the role of matchmaker and create the events you want to see!
- Train three characteristics, five martial art disciplines and 26 sub-skills for complete customization.
Every skill matters in MMA Simulator. Having a fighter that specializes in a few strikes can be more dangerous than a jack of all trades!
- Robust Combat System
Text based, detailed combat is what MMA Simulator excels in. Fights can go anywhere a real fight does – Standing, Clinch, and Ground. Positioning matters and submissions go through several stages depending on their complexity. The dynamic is completely different between two fighters!
- Manage your fighter AND coach roster
Train your fighters and recruit new ones with promise to rise to to the top of the MMA world! But where could you get without coaches? Hiring coaches will allow you to train your fighters faster.
- Take your gym to the next level
Managing a gym means everything from picking the best location to expanding in size to accommodate more fighters, and manage buying equipment to help your fighters train.
- Manage your fighters well-being
The fight game is rough. Ensuring your fighters stay healthy and happy is crucial to taking your gym to the top. If fighters get injured in training or fights, they may be out of commission for a while! Ther are over twenty injuries that take similar time to heal as they do in real life!
Fighters also age and their performance will lessen as they get older.
- Procedurally generated game
Every game is guaranteed to be different as fighters, coaches, and gyms are generated on the fly. Each game is different.

Every great fighter is a great gym with excellent facilities and great coaches, this game lets you create your own gym and see it rise to become the best gym in the world - home to the best fighters in the world.
Your decision on what to train will be crucial! If you train up your fighters with no BJJ and they're the Bruce Lee of striking? Well good luck with you take on the Royce Gracie of MMA Simulator, I guarantee it wont give you great success.
Love how the developer is constantly working on new updates to help improve the overall experience.

TLDR: If only there was a bug free version of this game.
I absolutely love what this game is trying to do. I hate the gym contract part but I like how the edit option is free and easy.
Time for the bad news. My first game ended just a little less than a year where my created character left my gym yet the contract for him still went through. None of my fighters were getting fights despite being on winning streaks during this time period and I ended up losing all of my fighters due to the time expiring. Eventually I downsized my gym to the point where it's expenses were -3000 per month. I don't know how it's expenses were negative considering the income was 1000. Eventually I got a message that I had a new message but I couldn't read it, I'd try clicking away but it would never pop up. Eventually I just had to give up on the game. It's a lot of fun but super buggy. I got it on a really steep discount of 2 bucks and I'm debating keeping it. I really want to so I can support the developer but the game is just super bugged.
Final diagnosis: This game is better than World of Mixed Martial Arts 5.

Oh, boy. So far, very bare bones. But it has great potential. First of all, you need to be able to pick your fighters tactics so they can't just do whatever they want. You need to make a fight plan mechanic otherwise there is no point in playing this game. There also needs to be a point system for the sub martial art category e.g.(jab, hook, armbar) instead of it all going up together the same, just because that's dumb. There needs to be more organizations, and you need to be the one who decides when and where your fighters fight, not the organization. Because that's dumb too. Once that stuff is done this game should be in business. I also made a character and the face I chose changed to a different on and the strength coordination and stamina were not at all what I chose. stamina was my high one instead of strength being it. And also they get up from the ground right away. That's kinda weird. How can someone consistently stand up right away after getting taken down? After this stuff is fixed it should be a pretty good game.

This game has a lot of potential. Has it's bugs(like every other game), but it's getting there.
The dev responds to bug reports quickly and the game has improved quite a bit since the launch.
I love it that it's slow and text based. Perfect to play while working or even surfing the internet.
For a measly 10$, it's fine and it's getting better, so that's a yes from me.

As someone who is a huge fan of the WMMA games and World Boxing Manager, this game was a cross of the two that I have always been hoping for. Being able to train and help control the career of an MMA fighter is something that was never a possibility in the WMMA games to to my knowledge hasn't been replicated elsewhere. The fight engine itself in comparison to WMMA is a bit lackluster in many ways but it still indepth and gives you a simulation fight feel. With that being said this is newer and has quite a few bugs but if you look past them (the dev seems dedicated to improving the game) the load times have seemed to improve immensely and saving doesn't take but 20 seconds for me and starting a new game was under a few minutes. At the moment I personally feel 9.99 is a bit much for the product you get but the dev is constantly improving the game and the potential is has. Can't wait to see where this game goes from here!
