    Overall, the gameplay has received overwhelmingly negative feedback, with many users citing slow controls, chaotic mechanics, and unresponsive interfaces as major issues. While some players appreciated the graphics and potential for fun in multiplayer settings, the core gameplay experience is often described as frustrating and unplayable, with significant room for improvement.

    • “The graphics were impressive, the gameplay was outstanding, and the card collecting was fun; it was like going to your nearest store and buying the pack hoping you earn that one card you need.”
    • “+ outstanding graphics and gameplay”
    • “Where that is a 1-minute game, locosoccer ups the ante with a full on 5 minutes of gameplay per match with a team of 5.”
    • “The crazy physics-based mechanics of this soccer game make it silly and unplayable.”
    • “Catastrophic controls and gameplay.”
    • “Almost every time reviewing a Unity engine game, I have to say its interface feels clunky and unresponsive. In this one, they made that irritating quality a stepping stone of their gameplay - the whole process of 'soccer' is chaotic beyond measure, yet the AI is always more aware of the possible ball's trajectories than you could ever be.”

    • “Incredibly cute graphics!”
    • “The graphics are horrible.”
    • “Audiovisuals are bottom of the ladder.”
    • “It's a 2D game with crude 3D graphics, where you control five blocks colored as soccer players. You switch between them with the 1-2-3 numerical keys; these blocks can move from side to side, jump up, and rotate in the air.”

    The music in the game has received positive feedback, with many users praising the soundtrack as enjoyable and relaxing, even describing it as "fire." However, some players expressed disappointment that the developer did not provide a soundtrack or CD, and noted that the gameplay did not match the upbeat quality of the music.

    • “Nice music.”
    • “Soundtrack 10/10.”

    • “Graphics and soundtrack are good, but come on, the gameplay sucks and feels really slow.”
  • humor11 mentions

    The humor in the game is widely praised, with players finding it hilariously entertaining despite its flaws, such as poor controls and AI. Many reviewers recommend it as a fun, lighthearted experience, especially for casual play with friends or as a game for children. Overall, it delivers a comedic take on soccer physics that can lead to countless laughs.

    • “The controls aren't great, the AI is ridiculous, it has many bugs, and you'll spend most of your time just laughing at the hilarity that ensues.”
    • “This game is absolutely hilarious if you like soccer and want to have a good laugh and score some insanely stupid goals. 10/10”
    • “Locosoccer is a hilariously low-quality physics game.”
  • stability5 mentions

    The game's stability is heavily criticized, with users reporting numerous bugs that hinder gameplay, such as characters getting stuck and unresponsive controls. Many players feel that the NPC behavior is erratic and contributes to a frustrating experience, suggesting that significant improvements are needed for the game to be enjoyable. Overall, the consensus is that the game lacks a solid foundation due to its instability.

    • “It's so buggy; I don't know why everyone just stacks at a ball and you can't even move.”
    • “The NPCs are very fishy; they seem to always want the ball out of bounds when it's on their side. The controls are okay, but the gameplay is not very good. I bought this game when it came out, and it's pretty buggy. The ball gets stuck between our feet like we're robots rolling around as wheels for a soccer ball, which is silly. You need to fix it, and more people will like this game. (P.S. This game is like the impossible game to win.)”
    • “Normally, I'd say that if they fix the glitches, the game would be a lot better, but I just don't think there's a foundation here for a great game.”
  • story3 mentions

    The game's story conveys a powerful message about perseverance and the unpredictability of life, emphasizing that giving up can prevent personal growth. However, some players feel the lack of a substantial narrative detracts from the experience, especially given the limited multiplayer options.

    • “The moral of the story is that you never know what life has in store for you. If I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today.”
    • “The game has no story, so it would be better if you could at least play online instead of just with bots.”
    • “The moral of the story is that you never know what life has in store for you, and if I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today.”

    The reviews suggest that the game's replayability may be limited, as players feel that the choice of input method (keyboard versus controller) does not significantly enhance the overall experience or enjoyment.

  • atmosphere1 mentions

    The atmosphere of the game is appreciated by some players, who find it engaging, but this positive sentiment is overshadowed by overall dissatisfaction with the game's value.
