Rugby Head Coach

Overview

A deep rugby union management simulation. Build your squad, set your shape at the scrum, breakdown and defensive line, then watch every phase unfold in a live match engine where thirty players each make their own decisions. Six professional leagues. One job: win the room, then the league.

Generative AI was used in a limited and disclosed way while making this game.
Artwork: the logo and wordmark were created with the help of a generative
AI image tool, then edited, recoloured and assembled by hand into the store
and library artwork you see here.
Text: parts of this store page description were drafted with AI assistance
and edited before publication.
Nothing in the game itself is generated by AI. The match engine, the
simulation, the player and club database, the match commentary and every
other piece of in-game text are hand-built and hand-written. The game does
not call any AI service, and no content is generated while you play.
