    At the time of writing this review this game is broken, despite being an upgrade from the previous version with similar code. Game breaking issues 1. Once a player bottoms out on form I am unable to lift them out of their slump. No matter the training nor dropping down in grade to win some games. I can't get their form to budge after persevering for 6 months - I give up. (This is better since the patch but still is …

    Brilliant game. Lots of depth, customization and replayability for those that like management games. I enjoy finding a diamond in the rough prospect and then develop them. Its not easy, the game keeps a lot of tension as you progress. Recommended!

    Tennis Manager 2024 Crashed Hello, It had been submitted that my Caroline Nguyen had gone through a World Cup event before 2025, and it had crashed too many times, making the game to quit. I'm very sad and satisfied that I will be in Caroline Nguyen 2, after the game was purchased $59.99. Plus, the Fantasy Court also glitched on the game while trying to customize the grass court tournament and it had failed to play …

    4 editions later and its still not a game. a game is something you can influence. your form? irrelevent. Your training? irrelevent. your in game coaching? irrelevent. Morale? irrelevent. Killer instinct and Fighting spirit levels high? irrelevent. Rybakina, Swiatek, Azarenka, Badosa are just a test of how long you can sit there and reload your save. Did a test. 114 attempts to beat rybakina once. 79 attempts to beat Swiatek once, 91 attempts to beat Azarenka once. 56 attempts to beat…

    The game is getting better from previous editions but one issue persists: The memory leak. Since the first edition of TM there has been a memory leak. It's not a massive issue but it does mean that you have to restart the game often. Ridiculously often. The longer you play in a save, the more you have to close and reopen the game. How they haven't fixed this yet I do not know. I've changed PCs and played on my laptop ad yet no matter what there are constant memory leaks.

    Clearly some improvements went into TM24 including some obvious influences from Football Manager's interface but without the budget or team to support the data density of FM. The real problem with this game is the inability to edit the game easily, the best part of management games isn't just having realism -- the mod that enables this is what makes the game truly playable -- but being able to simulate a variety of different scenarios including fictional ones. This game is too in the weeds,…

    I'm on the fence on this game. I think the developers (which appears to be only three of them) have made the grave mistake of doing yearly / annual releases. There are too little iterations between releases for this to be worth the current price. Some notes based on my play time so far 1. Variety of the spice of life my friends. Player voices, crowds, backgrounds, sounds, graphics etc, needs far more variety to enhance the player immersion. About the only varying thing you see graphically is…

    After 16 hours of beta testing this full price game I won't recommend it at the current state. At the moment in regards to morale and form issues it is very frustrating to play it more than a season (first season sometimes works out). With the last hot fix they claimed that these issues are fixed and there is a slight improvement regarding the morale issue, but form will still never come back after it drops once.

    Game is a ton of fun but jesus christ is it unstable. Like i have a high tolerance for bugs and crashes (e.g. I somehow liked cyberpunk on the ps4), but damn this game simply doesn't want to stay open.

    Much as the other comments you will see on here, this game is broken to unplayable levels unless and until they fix the broken morale and especially "form" mechanics.

    TLDR: at bottom of review. Well, for starters I'm not a tennis guy. I know most of my tennis knowledge due to an anime. Baby-Steps, worth checking out if you guys like tennis. Despite that, this game has got me addicted; i'm literally considering tennis lessons now lmaoooo. Appearance wise its rough. The players look quite ugly. Crowd lacks variations. Little jarring when you're trying to coach a japanese girls team and most of the players look like Serena Williams but rougher in the face.…

    It's definitely worth the upgrade from Tennis Manager 2022. The difficulty settings alone have made the replays a lot more fun. Even on "average" I cannot seem to get to #1, until I really grind on those skills. And the outcomes of matches can be affected by a lot of things: form, morale, injury, energy, surface mastery, all the skills. This makes it that much more exciting with your player starts to ascend to the towards the top and starts going against the "real world players." I'd advise on…

    I always thought that sports and especially computer games not a place for political disputes. But here the creators of the game decided that they have the right to consider that some countries is better than others. Russia and Belarus are represented by white flags here. It is easy to guess why, but I will say again - sports and computer games are not a place to represent any political views, so I think that this product will not take place in my library.

    Tennis Manager 2024 is a brilliant sports management game, it is basically football manager but with a ball and a racket, the aim is to rise to the top and win as many trophies as you can either real or create a club and finish as world number 1 to become the greatest tennis manager in the world of all time, it is for both boys and girls just to make it enjoyable, it is fun, epic and competitive rollercoaster of an all-time classic, i give it 10/10.

    If I had known that they would release almost the exact same game again in 2025 (TM25), I wouldn’t have bought this one. TM24 isn’t a bad game, but it already feels outdated the moment you start, because TM25 is right around the corner. Some of the features you miss from TM25 make TM24 feel incomplete, and the achievements they added to TM24 are somewhat unrealistic – requiring an estimated 1000 hours of playtime. That makes the game feel more like a grind than an enjoyable career journey.…
