FAQ

Quick answers about 38-0, the ratings, and your data.

What is 38-0?

38-0 is a football draft game. You build a starting eleven from 34 years of Premier League players, then play a full 38-match season against today's clubs. Win all 38 and you go 38-0: a perfect season.

How do I build my team?

Two reels spin: a club and a season. They land on a real club-season, and you draft one of that squad's players into an open position. Don't like the draw? Hold one reel to keep it and re-spin the other. Re-rolls are limited, so every pick counts.

What do the settings change?

Formation sets the shape and which positions you need to fill. Difficulty sets your re-rolls (Easy three, Normal one, Hard none, and Hard also hides ratings). Show ratings can be turned off on its own for a blind draft. Career rates each player as they were that exact season; Prime rates everyone at their career best. Era limits which seasons you can spin.

Where do the players and ratings come from?

From 34 seasons of public Premier League statistics. The ratings are our own: built per position and per season from those numbers. They are an independent interpretation, not affiliated with or matched to any club or official data provider.

How does the season simulation work?

Each match weighs your attack, midfield, defence and goalkeeper against the opponent's, with real match-day variance: the favourite usually wins, but upsets happen. Over 38 games, class tends to tell. Every season is seeded, so the same eleven and seed always produce the same season, which is what makes a perfect run verifiable rather than just claimed.

Can I actually win 38-0?

Yes, but it is rare. Even the strongest possible eleven goes a perfect 38-0 only about once in 10,000 seasons. Going the whole year unbeaten (no losses) is the softer milestone on the way there.

Do I need an account?

No. You can play and keep your history with no account at all. Signing in to back up your runs and sync them across devices is coming soon.

Where is my data stored?

On your device, in your browser. Clearing your browser data for this site clears your run history and settings. Nothing about you is sent to a server while you play without an account.

Is it free?

Yes.
