    The gameplay is generally solid, with responsive controls and exciting mechanics like shooting when the game flows well, but it is currently hindered by bugs, stiff animations, and issues with passing and set pieces. Players suggest the addition of in-depth tutorials to better explain mechanics and request patches to improve fluidity and address lingering glitches. Despite some outdated elements and performance stutters, the core gameplay shows strong potential pending further refinement.

    • “The overall mechanics and shooting feel great, and when the game flows properly it’s genuinely exciting to play.”
    • “The gameplay is pretty fluid; I've played a couple games now, and I haven't had a moment yet where I was like 'wow that's broken.'”
    • “The controls are mostly fluid and responsive in normal gameplay, but the set pieces need more visual feedback or a tutorial for each.”
    • “Other comments have pointed out the bugs and flaws with the game mechanics, but for longevity, maybe an in-depth tutorial on how the mechanics are intended to work is needed.”
    • “A few patches to solve bugs like these and ironing out some of the gameplay such as tackling could make it a pretty solid football experience.”
    • “The main thing ruining the gameplay for me at the moment is the passing.”
  • graphics

    The graphics are generally described as basic and not up to AAA standards, with some visual bugs and occasional stutters, but many users find them acceptable given the game's indie nature and enjoy the gameplay despite these flaws. While some players see room for improvement, others appreciate the current state and believe the game has potential to improve over time.

    • “Everyone is slagging off the game because of the graphics, but I actually think they're not bad and the game is really fun to play. I just wish they had the actual players in each country or added clubs with random names. I don't mind, but still 100% recommend.”
    • “I don't really mind graphic bugs, like the flags becoming gigantic at the beginning of the match, but there's a lot of work to do and I hope it's done; that's why I'm not refunding the game.”
    • “Graphics are basic but not bad, just not modern.”
    • “The game can be finicky at times, especially the tackling and passing. Often my player would run by the ball when it rolls towards him. The HUD also disappears sometimes after a score. When I was playing on Leitrim's pitch, odd shadows would appear across the pitch. Also, my keeper would be at the opposition's goal when I make a substitution. I think the game has good potential and people are being too harsh on it. The game is actually pretty impressive for a small indie company who's never released a game before. I think the £35 price is a bit mad but I see why they need to bring in money to reinvest into the game, which is fair enough. Overall, I think it's a good investment and the game will improve a lot in the future. And lads, stop going on about the graphics, they're not EA Sports, what do you expect?”
    • “There are some fun moments in the game, don't get me wrong, but the graphics, stutters, GPU throttling, and other issues with the game make it hard for me to recommend it to anyone. If you have the quid to dump on this game, sure, go for it, but I personally would wait for a sale or for it to be patched.”
    • “Dropping the graphics quality only caused some graphical elements of the pitch and players to disappear, but resolution did the trick.”
  • music

    The game features a generally well-received soundtrack with contributions from Irish artists, praised for its quality and overall appeal. However, the limited number of tracks (around 7-8) and the inability to skip or disable songs, especially a disliked one, have drawn some criticism.

    • “There's some good music by Irish artists in the menus.”
    • “The music in this game is brilliant, and the graphics don't bother me as much as they do other people.”
    • “The soundtrack is cool, even if there are only like 7-8 songs.”
    • “There's one song I already hate, but you can't disable or skip songs.”
  • stability

    The game initially suffered from significant bugs and glitches, including visual issues and gameplay oddities like goalkeeper teleportation. While developers have addressed the most severe problems through patches, stability remains a concern, preventing a fully positive assessment.

    • “But it's simply too buggy for a positive review.”
    • “Yes, it is janky and there are some visual glitches.”
    • “I've also experienced glitches like the goalkeepers of both teams getting teleported to one end for a kickout.”
  • humor

    The humor in the game is appreciated for its lighthearted moments, such as accidental own goals by the goalie, which players find amusing. However, some situational humor related to specific locations or features that didn't make it into the game is missed. Overall, the humor adds a fun and entertaining element despite minor frustrations.
