38–0 is a browser football game about building an Invincibles campaign from a fantasy draft. The name pictures 38 league
wins and no losses; the FA Cup draft game compresses that pressure into knockout football. Pick players from
memorable English sides and make sure the cup run never ends with a defeat.
How the FA Cup draft works
Select the cup format, tactics and your Armchair or Manager role before you roll the draft.
Recruit across historic English club squads, then choose a starting XI suited to one-off matches.
Manage single-leg eliminations from the opening round; level scores lead to extra time and penalties.
Keep adjusting the team as opponents change, because one bad result ends the unbeaten cup challenge.
