How to Play MyFIFA.ai

MyFIFA.ai is an AI World Cup simulator: an 11v11 engine loaded with real 2026 World Cup data (all 32 teams, 833 real players, lineups and bracket refreshed daily). You coach in natural language and predict with 100 full simulations per fixture.

Quick start

Open the home page and a retro TV is broadcasting today's real fixture (the top-right tag says PRACTICE — it's a showcase, not an official prediction). Tap any dot on the pitch: a player, the head coach, even a fan in the stands — it's yours to command.

Use the quick-tactic buttons on the remote, or just type: "press high", "play in behind", "their right side is slow — attack it". The AI coach discusses it with you, then rewrites the players' behaviour live — the dots change immediately. No AI budget? A free local keyword parser has you covered.

The remote also handles pause/reset, playback speed, picture filters, channel switching (the CH knob flips between today's fixtures) and half length.

Match predictions

On the World Cup page, select any fixture and hit "🔮 Predict match": the engine plays it 100 times in full with real lineups and team styles, charts the win distribution live, and returns two verdicts — 📊 a stats model (rough second opinion) and ⚽ the strategy simulation (the recommended read) — plus a combined recommendation and a scoreline reference.

The same fixture always returns the same numbers (deterministic engine + fixed seeds) — identical on the site, the /predict/ pages and the API. In the Round of 16 it went three-for-three on headline calls — but remember: football always carries randomness; a prediction is a probability, not a promise.

Adventure game

Pick any team still alive in the real bracket and take it over: your matches run live in the real engine (claim players, change tactics mid-game), the rest of the bracket reveals round by round as you advance — all the way to the trophy.

Online versus

Topbar "World Cup ▾ → Online Versus": one player creates a room and coaches the home side; the other joins with the room code and coaches away. Trade natural-language tactics head-to-head, both watching the same live match. Requires an invite code.

Invite codes

Deep AI-coach chats and online versus need an invite code. When the free quota runs out, leave your email to request one; every code ships with 2 share codes — send a friend a ?code= link for one-tap unlock.

Under the hood: how a player thinks

Every player is an independent agent running the same loop each tick: perceive (vision-capped) → decide (rule functions) → act (with execution error) → the physics world updates. Your natural language writes ONLY into Policy — a set of tunable decision dials; attributes and abilities stay read-only. That's why tactics here have reproducible cause and effect.

Roadmap

What's shipped, what's in progress and what's planned (the 11+1 vs 11+1 versus mode, more leagues, more sports) — the whole plan, drawn on a football pitch.
