    I have, think it's great. Enjoyed playing the mobile versions too.

    I'm only on my second season, but there's loads of details to be managed.

    My computer can only play with the graphics turned right down so it looks like Grand Prix Manager 2 did 20 years ago, but I think it'd look great on a machine with a decent graphics card.

    Grand Prix Manager 2, that brings back painful memories.

    I loved that game. At one stage I won 5 double titles in a row with Damon Hill and Pedro Dinz for Jordan.

    Is there more depth to it than the mobile version? I found it was fun at first but got repetitive quickly.

    With that success you should apply to become manager of the Ferrari team ;)

    There's a lot more areas you get involved in, and in more detail, but you do have to do the same tasks frequently (what parts to design, which car to put them on etc), so you might find that repetitive. It's the sort of game I enjoy though.

    I think at some stage I just saved that GPM2 game and never went back, was afraid my luck would change and ruin my perfect run...

    I think that I may have an addiction to the mobile version. I'm generally at about 65% battery by the time that I get into work :eek:

    Bit of a zombie thread guys, sorry.

    Been looking about for some F1 maanagment games, and this seems to be the best reviewed out there. Anybody played/playing it?

    Is it any good? How detailed is it, does it get old pretty quick?

    Thanks

    Gets old really quick. Good f1 manager games are pretty much non existent. Used to be one good online one years ago but even that has been gone a while now.

    Played the mobile version but quickly came to realise that there is very little depth to it.

    Haven't played it in ages, but it the PC version has way more depth than the mobile version.
    There's even an endurance racing DLC, so you have to manage driver swaps stc.
