    The gameplay features a mix of mechanics that can be both engaging and confusing, with a fun loop of player improvement and tournament competition. However, many players find the experience repetitive over time, especially at lower levels where the gameplay engine struggles. While some appreciate the semi-random elements and humorous matches, others feel the initial gameplay loop lacks inspiration.

    • “Perfect gameplay loop, and while this may not be the popular opinion, I think the semi-random gameplay is great.”
    • “Game mechanics and matches are the best part: it's quite fun to see how the ball bounces like a rugby ball from the field edges and how players (ugly weird creatures) are missing the goal even if they are in front of it.”
    • “There's a fun gameplay loop of improving your players and competing in tournaments, but that loop can get repetitive.”
    • “There are many mechanics, but it can seem a bit confusing, and at times I just didn't know what to do.”
    • “I didn't stick around to see what this game looks like once you get going, but that should speak to how uninspiring I found the gameplay loop at the start.”
    • “The gameplay engine for low-level teams is crazy bad.”
  • monetization

    • “The developer has a history of creating cash grab games (Gladiator School, Boxing School) and then either never fixing them or prioritizing updates for previous games before releasing the next cash grab.”
  • humor
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story is criticized for its pacing, as players feel that falling behind in a time-sensitive operation can disconnect them from the narrative, particularly during the introductory phase. This aspect detracts from the overall engagement with the storyline.

    • “Being a day behind on a 5-day operation to earn 2 house points puts you out of the storyline in the introduction phase.”
