The gameplay is described as mediocre, primarily consisting of a reskinned template with low-quality assets, resulting in a lack of depth and replayability. While it may provide a brief amusement, it is noted to have better character and plot development than the FIFA franchise, albeit still falling short of being a compelling experience.
- “Honestly better characters, plot development, and gameplay than the entire FIFA franchise.”
- “The developer, Laush Studio/Laush Dmitriy Sergeevich, took the tutorial/demo/game asset pack from the real developers, Grafik Ganes, changed the name, reskinned the whole template with some really poor quality assets (why couldn't Laush at least steal some high-quality assets to put on the gameplay template he stole?) and dumped the result onto Steam.”
- “So-so gameplay, okay for a quick laugh, but little replayability.”
