V2 is out, and Cycling Life is here

Cycling Life

Cycling Life plays like Tennis Life. You start as a young rider and make the decisions around the races: how to train, which team to sign for, when to attack and when to work for someone else. The game plays out the races, and your career builds up season after season until you retire.

You can ride in the men's or women's peloton, as a sprinter, a classics hunter, a Grand Tour rider or something in between. The calendar has what you'd expect: one-day classics, the three Grand Tours, the World Championships and the Olympics.

It was the hardest part of LegendSim to build, and it's finally out. I hope you like it.

What's new in V2

  • Cycling Life, with men's and women's careers
  • New events in Tennis Life
  • New and harder daily challenges in both games
  • A new player creation screen, with 8 new countries
  • A random name and country for every new career
  • A clearer scoreboard and player profile
  • More varied season recaps
  • Medal badges for achievements
  • The full list of every career in the Pantheon, not just the top five
  • Bug fixes, including achievements that kept popping up every season
  • Your V1 records and saved careers are all kept

How you can help

There's no marketing behind LegendSim. Everyone who plays it found it on their own or heard about it from a friend. So if you enjoy it, the best way to support the game is to share it with someone who likes tennis or cycling. It really does help me keep working on it.

Tell me what you think
