Whistle: Referee Simulator

Whistle is a football referee game and soccer referee simulator where every match is in your hands. Step into the referee's boots: run with play, watch the challenge, then make the call. Foul or fair? Yellow or red card? Penalty or play on? Every decision is marked by the assessor, and the right calls take you from muddy Sunday League pitches to the World Finals.

REFEREE BY THE REAL LAWS OF THE GAME
• Careless, reckless and excessive force: know when it's a yellow and when it's a straight red card
• DOGSO and SPA, advantage, handball, offside and simulation
• VAR on goals: go to the monitor, stick or change your call, like a real VAR review
• A slow-motion replay of what you saw from where you stood. A poor position means a poor view.

A REFEREE CAREER OFF THE PITCH
• Messages, a fan feed, sponsors and a bank account
• Face the press after a big call or a controversial VAR review
• Stories that remember you: managers with long memories, a fixer who won't take no for an answer, a rival on the referee list

HANDLE THE CHAOS
Dogs on the pitch, pitch invaders, flares, a coach losing it on the touchline, a brawl in the box. Keep control of the match, and don't be afraid to show a red card.
