Early access — first wave
From your first touch in the street to your last dance under the lights. One tap is one year. Birth to death to the child who carries the name — and every contract, injury, transfer and regret in between.
What it is
A life simulator that is soccer all the way down — not a soccer mode bolted onto a life game. You are born somewhere real to parents with real jobs, and everything after that is what you did with it.
A country, a city, a family that is comfortable or isn't, siblings, grandparents who will die while you're still learning to run. Everything the game rolls at birth is load-bearing for the next eighty years.
Technical, defending, physical, psychological — position-weighted into an Overall you can read from age six. Playing well is the fastest way to grow: a great season multiplies development, a bad one nearly stops it.
Trials, rejections, a first contract you're allowed to refuse, loan spells in places you've never heard of, and a dressing room that decides whether you start. The failure is simulated as carefully as the glory.
A legacy score, a tier, honors, a net worth, a generational ranking — then continue the bloodline as one of your children, raised wherever your career happened to finish. Or take one over while you're still alive.
The arc
Born in one of 38 countries with its own name pool, real cities and soccer weight. A struggling family, a comfortable one, a father who drives a minicab. Attributes are already rolling.
School, grades, a smarts stat that decides what studying is even worth. The local youth side, named for your city. The subs money your mum can't quite find. The first year the Overall is worth looking at.
Pick a position. Most players are rejected here — the game does not flinch from it. Those who get in play academy seasons with real finishing positions and the occasional accolade nobody outside the club notices.
Wages that scale exponentially with how good you actually are. A squad status, a settling-in penalty, a coach whose trust decides your minutes. You are allowed to say no to all of it.
Two-tier transfer jumps, loans, a money-over-soccer offer at 27. Three named rivals age and score and retire alongside you, and the year's best player is decided between you, them and an outsider.
Injuries with rehab forks. A league that stops calling. Property that appreciates whether or not you do. The captaincy, if the dressing room ever thought that much of you.
Retire, emigrate, watch the money work or not work. Then the legacy score, the tier, the generational ranking — and a child who inherits your passports, your city and absolutely none of your ability.
Under the hood
Every number below is a system that runs every year of every life, whether or not you are looking at it.
Under 60 is red, 60–79 amber, 80+ green — the band where the simulation itself starts calling you elite. Growth is asymptotic toward a hidden cap, multiplied by last season's rating and hard-capped so form can never run away.
Thirty-six countries with a league of their own, 91 divisions between them, and a domestic cup in every one. Market value scales with your club's standing as well as your rating, so a 66 is worth €3M in one league and €14M in another. Clubs remember your last eight moves and won't recycle you.
Three named contemporaries per generation. They transfer, they score, they win things you wanted, they retire before or after you. The year's biggest individual award is a contest, not a reward.
Dealerships and estate agencies named for the city you live in, with stock that rotates yearly. Mortgages that can repossess. Investments from a savings account to crypto, with a counsellor who narrows the swings and still can't make crypto sensible.
Parents with 55 possible jobs, siblings, grandparents, partners whose lives scale with yours, children with professions and soccer promise, friends, prenups, dual nationality and an irreversible choice of country.
The engine owns every number; the prose only ever describes what the engine already decided. Cards carry multiple phrasings and slot-fill real club and city names, so the writing stays varied while the balance stays exactly where it was measured. No latency, no connection required, nothing to subscribe to.
The honest part
Measured over a thousand simulated lives per profile, not guessed at — and the full method is published. The gap between playing carelessly and playing properly is the game.

A near-neutral base, teal doing the structural work, and orange rationed to about a tenth of the screen — the primary action, your age, a decision, a milestone. These are real captures from the build the closed test is playing, not mockups — and they follow the toggle, both skins shot on a real phone.

Questions
A life simulator lets you live a whole life from birth to death, a year at a time, making a handful of decisions each year. A soccer life simulator makes that life a soccer player's: you are born somewhere real, you get spotted or you don't, you sign or you don't, and everything that happens to a career — academies, trials, contracts, transfers, injuries, a dressing room that decides whether you start — is simulated rather than narrated.
Wonderkid is soccer-native from the first screen. It is not a general life game with a sports mode attached.
The one-tap-per-year loop will feel instantly familiar if you have played BitLife. Everything underneath it is different: 1,055 clubs across 36 countries and 91 divisions, fifteen FIFA-style attributes rolled into a position-weighted Overall, real wages, real transfer logic and a rival generation that ages and scores alongside you.
We wrote a longer, honest comparison: nine games like BitLife compared, and where a soccer one fits.
It is in closed testing now with a small group of players. There is no public release date yet — we would rather ship it right than ship it on a promise. The early-access list is the first group let through the gate, and the only one that gets told before anybody else.
Free to play, with one optional unlock bought once and owned forever. No subscription, no energy timers, no paying to skip a year. The whole simulation runs on your phone, so there is nothing to keep paying for.
Android first, then iOS. It is built in Flutter, so the mobile builds come from the same codebase as the browser version the closed test runs on — the phone release is a build target, not a rewrite.
No. Every number in the game is decided on your device, and all 609 event cards ship inside the app. Nothing is generated by a server while you play, which is why there is no latency and nothing to subscribe to.
