Developed by the creators of Track Suit Manager, a highly successful football management game for 8-bit computers, World Championship Boxing Manager puts you, as the name suggests, in the office of a boxing promoter. You’ll manage the careers of five boxers simultaneously, oversee training and recovery, hire spies to gather intel on opponents, and, of course, organise matches.

Fights can be “viewed” through a small scene featuring two commentators. You might expect more spectacle from a boxing game, but, well…

That’s the theory. In practice, I picked up the phone and tried in vain to get anything started. Either the boxer was unavailable, or the committee said no. When a game refuses to show me anything in the first ten minutes (aside from my secretary’s bumpers), I lose interest fast.

As for the French translation? A tearjerker, as usual.
