I'm not sure where the management part fits in. The word "upkeep" seems more appropriate. Besides not having much reason to pay attention to what any of the items are, most of the activity needed to win is sending the explorer out over and over and periodically clicking the buttons next to bars to make sure the character doesn't die. I think I might have run out of space at some point, but then I clicked some more things the game let me click and kept going.
