BOLT Play

Premier League football auction

The Premier League pack turns English football history into an open-bidding auction game. Build an all-time Premier League team from a fictional £100m, then find out whose squad was actually built best.

A deep pool, so budget discipline matters

English top-flight history is deep at almost every position. That makes it tempting to chase stars early and run dry. The managers who do well here usually protect enough money to fill all 16 places with players who suit their lineup.

Ratings come from Premier League performances

BOLT League Ratings in this pack are editorial ratings based on how players performed in the Premier League. They are not the player's global standing, and they are hidden until every lineup is locked.

Who it suits

It is the natural first pack for most fans: the names are familiar, the debates are instant, and the pass-or-bid decisions are easy to argue about afterwards.

Ways to play this pack

  • Two managers: you against one AI, or a private duel.
  • Four managers: friends and AI in one private room.
  • Fictional £100m each, exactly 16 players.
  • Ratings revealed once all lineups lock.

Auction notes

  • Cover every line before you spend big on one.
  • A strong bench is worth 15% of your score.
  • Unused money earns nothing, so spend it well.
