MLB Manager 2016 for Android
This game is cool except the same function does not work. At first, when I was losing progress I thought it had auto save but even when I manually click the option to save game my progress is not saved. This should be table stakes to have a casual mobile reliably save progress.
This is a really good game, however, I belive it could deepen. The PC version of the game includes, waivers, rule 5 draft, international signings, minor league stats, hiring and firing your staff. These features are missing in the mobile version and is keeping it from being an amazing game. Please consider adding these different features in your next mobile version!
I think this game is great however when u try to see the box scores and stats it is very small letters and you can't see them well. Also there doesn't seem to be alot of options in trading and stuff at the beggining in settings. Plz fix those two things and I will give u five stars. Ty
...but the broken save function makes it absolutely useless. I get into August, save and return and find myself back in April with some (but not all) of the stats erased.
This game is awesome if your into this sort of game. Incredibly detailed and fun. Had an issue with the touch at the last update. But issue has since been fixed. Touch is still kinda wonky but much better. But overall in my opinion the best game of its kind.
The game is a lot of fun but I have serious issues with it saving things properly. I will click save, close the game, open it back up and I will have lost much of what I had last done. Fix the saving issues and this wohld be a great game.
I like this game a lot...I bought 24 extra seasons as well...The recap descriptions are so historical...but why no recap for 2015?? Please update soon with a description it makes it more worthy of my purchase. Besides a few glitches it's a very good app.
I bought this a month earlier and had to have it refunded because the touch screen issues made the game unplayable. Just saw they updated it and gave it another go. It has been fixed, at least for my note 4. I am loving the game so far. There are some features i would have liked them to include, but this game is only 4.99 and i paid like 40 bucks for its big brother (OOTPB 17). I didn't see anybody say if the touch issues were fixed in the reviews so thats why I decided to post one. Hope this helps.
I hadn't really found a truly fun and deep game for a relatively low price. That changed when I found out the Out of the Park Baseball dev team made a more simple and easier to understand version of their popular PC game. While it may be simpler, that doesn't take away from how amazing this game is. It is in-depth, fun, and at the same time excruciating painful when you lose in Game 6 of the World Series with a 4 run lead. It is a must buy to me.
Worked like a charm on my old iPhone 6. Got s7 edge and the games are now laggy and slower
Navigation in the game sucks. It won't recognize movements like scrolling which is important. I have the 2014 version and I'm going back to playing that edition until this one gets straightened out
I love the game but the game saving bugs are brutal. You basically can't risk saving a game mid-season or you run the risk of accumulating stats for X number of games, only to be bounced back to Opening Day after you continue your existing game. Just ruins your whole franchise.
Was great before the recent update, now it's incredibly frustrating to scroll up and down, save, etc... was 5
Guys I have played through many of season with this game keep it going not had any of the problems these other ppl complain about perfect game I visited your site when will 17 be released also one thing I think there should be is owner approval rating with a chance to be fired
The game gets better and better each year. A must for all fans of statistics associated with baseball.
I'm a big OOTP fan and have enjoyed the older mobile games but this one just left me very disappointed. The game doesn't register your touch a lot of the time and some pop up menus sometimes get stuck. The gameplay can be very random at times (granted, this is baseball) but too many stars just become dreadful players overnight. MLB Manager feels like an unimportant side project and plays like it. OOTP is great but the developers - who have ignored my feedback/questions on numerous occasions - missed a trick
This game would be 5 stars were it not for the awful saving system. I really hope the developer fixes this :/
I love the game , and I have ABSOLUTELY NO complaints, but I would really like if you gave FHM a mobile version too , I would play it
I loved this game, until the most recent update broke it. Constantly crashes now.
Save function not working properly makes game unplayable
I love this app and recommend to anyone that enjoys baseball.
Greatest game ever
Having a blast with this game.
I continue to have the same issue others are having. The screen is not responsive when you touch it. I dont have this issue with any other apps.I find myself continuously mashing buttons which sometimes causes me to advance the next play by accident. On note 5.
Enjoyable game, I know very little about baseball but love sports management games and this is one of the best available on a mobile. No issues with it being unresponsive even though I have an older HTC.
Even after an update there are still some horribly rated players and a player that had "bench player" as their expectation become infuriated if they are put in the starting lineup
Simulation is not realistic and it does not work well when you auto setup the lineups. It puts players in wrong positions.
Really deep game play that I can get lost in for hours.
Great game. People who do not like it are glorps.
really like and recommend
There needs to be a way to backup your season. I am using a Galaxy Note 5 fully updated. Spent 3 days making a killer team, in the middle of the playoffs it crashed. Now, every time I load the season and try to finish the game it crashes. Since I had no way to save a backup of the game my entire season is ruined. All the negotiations and trades are all gone because there is no way to save a season in multiple places. You would think a developer would fix something so minor to eliminate so much frustration.
Been looking for this exact game on mobile but it's too frustrating to attempt to play when I have to mash in my screen over and over and over and over and over and over and over to try to get the game to respond. Literally makes it unplayable. Very disappointing.
I feel bad giving 1 star, its hands down my favorite franchise of games and I am sure a bug fix will come out and make it perfect again... i dont need a refund I know it will be fixed soon and be worth the $5
I should really give it a 1 because the problems with touch have made this game unplayable for me, but I gave an extra star for the value of the product even with the problem. Would be at least a 4 if touch was working. And the worst of it all is that this was a problem in last year's version. Shame on you, Devs.
Its an ok game but definitely not as good as it could be. The actual gameplay especially needs work, the infield shifts are useless, i cant use any sort of strategy on defense and, there are far too many walks in this game. Has so much potential but overall kinda disappointed. Hopefully devs update game cuz it could be a masterpiece.
Could be great, but the touch is poor. Makes it unplayable almost. Also, could do without the announcer in game play.
Great game can't stop playing! Most realistic mobile simulation available. Would like to see them add the actual stadiums instead of the same field background for every game..hopefully in a future update.
Just like micro league baseball.. Would like to see game view rather than announcer guy
This might be a good game, I'd like to give it a shot but all button presses have a painfully slow response time that I can't stand to do anything in the game.

This used to be a fun pastime. The recent update seems to have broken the automatic save feature. When resuming a season not only many weeks of statistics have been lost but upon continuing the same season it does not end the season at 162 games. I managed to play a season with over 200 games. When I tried again and the same pattern emerged I stopped playing and removed it. Too bad.
