Reviews
- The game offers a fun and fast-paced 3 vs 3 format, making it enjoyable even for those who aren't typically fans of football.
- The physics in the game are realistic, and the character control allows for a more immersive experience by focusing on one player.
- The game has potential and is seen as a great alternative to more expensive football games, with a good character and outfit editor.
- Character control is unresponsive with significant delays, making gameplay frustrating and difficult to enjoy.
- The AI is poorly designed, leading to nonsensical actions such as goalkeepers diving for balls that haven't been kicked yet.
- The game feels incomplete and is plagued by bugs, leading many to believe it should still be in development rather than sold at a price.
