Step into the Shadows of Football Management

The Referee Committee is an immersive strategy simulation game that invites you to pull the strings behind the world’s most popular sport. Unlike standard football management games that focus on coaching tactics, this title puts you in charge of the officiating body. Navigate a treacherous web of conspiracies, power struggles, and hidden agendas as you determine the outcome of the season from the comfort of the officials' lounge.

Experience a Dynamic Football World

Choose your nation and immerse yourself in 10 fully playable leagues that evolve over time. Experience a living, breathing ecosystem where referees age, mentor new talent, and eventually retire. You must manage a growing roster of officials in an ever-shifting environment, ensuring your influence remains absolute across every generation of the game.

Rewrite Iconic Football History

Travel through time and alter the most memorable moments in European football. Whether you are navigating the landscape of Scottish football in 2025/26 or managing the controversial officiating in England’s 2015/16 season, your choices define the record books. You hold the pen; decide which legacies to protect and which teams to bury.

Master Critical VAR Decisions

Matches are more than simple statistics; they are high-stakes dramas. When controversy erupts on the pitch, you are whisked away to the VAR monitor. Through intense Quick Time Events (QTE), you must decide the outcome of pivotal plays under immense pressure. Will you uphold the integrity of the sport, or leverage your position to appease powerful club presidents and secure your standing?

Survive Political Turmoil

Every administrative decision comes with a cost. You are constantly balancing the delicate Trust levels of various stakeholders, including:

• Federation Presidents who demand control.
• Club Presidents looking for any edge.
• The Media, eager to break stories of corruption.
• The Fans, who can turn hostile at a moment's notice.
• The Betting Mafia, who will hold you accountable for every missed goal and foul.

Advanced Referee Management

Behind every decision is a human with personal quirks. Manage your roster by understanding the unique personality traits and biases of each referee under your command. From the "Fanboy" who might show favoritism to the "Gambler" who defies your orders, knowing who to assign to which high-stakes match is essential for your long-term success.

Master the Art of Match-Fixing

Shape the league table exactly how you want it with clandestine tactics. Issue secret instructions to your crew before kickoff, such as enforcing specific match results, manipulating over/under goal counts, or ensuring targeted players are sent off. Manage the risks of match-fixing scandals and use the media to spin your narrative before the consequences—or the underworld—come knocking at your door.
