sports sim
Virtual team management
A sports sim is a video game that simulates a particular sport, emphasizing realistic gameplay, statistics, and strategy over arcade-style action.
The genre includes team management sims where you control rosters, trades, and tactics without playing the matches themselves: I spent all weekend on my football sports sim, rebuilding the franchise from scratch.
Also called sports simulation.
