User Reviews

Pocket GM 3 is praised as a deep, customizable football management sim with strong long-term play and community-driven rosters. However, players highlight balance and realism issues in the sim: salary/holdouts, RNG-driven results, and inflated player prices. Many want more features (preseason, practice squad, deeper scouting, hall of fame, and UI tweaks) to broaden depth. Overall, it’s highly addictive and feature-rich but could improve realism and feature completeness.

Pros

Extremely deep, feature-rich franchise football manager with realistic progression, stats, and customization.
Strong long-term engagement; hours of gameplay; feels like Madden franchise mode in depth and scope.
Robust drafting, trading, and roster-building systems enabling creative, strategic play.
Active community with many custom rosters and ongoing support.

Cons

Unrealistic salary cap and holdout dynamics; need toggles or adjustments to disable/modify holds.
RNG-driven simulations can produce unfair or unlikely outcomes despite strong rosters and good management.
Overinflated trade values and high costs for top/free-agent players; balance issues in the player economy.
Requests for more depth/features (preseason, practice squad, deeper draft/scouting, hall of fame) indicating gaps in current content.

U just want to say I love the PGM games! My favorite is the football ones. I would love another one, hopefully it’s in the works… in my opinion PGM 2 was better when it came to player info etc. also are we getting a PGM BaseBall?
