The gameplay of the game is generally described as fun and addictive, with simple mechanics that make it easy to learn. However, many users express a desire for more depth, particularly in midfield play and defensive mechanics, which are often seen as lacking or frustrating. While the attacking gameplay is praised, issues such as unfair AI, limited scoring opportunities, and a need for more realistic features are common points of criticism.
- “The gameplay is fun, but earning transfer budget is not.”
- “The gameplay is simple yet fun.”
- “Great game, the gameplay is amazing and really enjoyable and the games aren't too long.”
- “Very unfair gameplay; it gives the opponent about 6 or 7 goal chances and gives you only 1 to 3 goal chances. It's expected from you to win, so how would I win? Also, the opponent players are too fast relative to my players, making it too hard to prevent goals.”
- “The defensive plays are still quite useless, with situations where you can do nothing to avoid a goal, and the sliding/tackling works only 30% of the time.”
- “The gameplay isn't the best, but climbing up the football ladder as a manager is insanely fun and addictive.”

The monetization aspect of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players expressing frustration over the frequency and intrusive nature of ads, particularly when they interfere with gameplay. While some users appreciate the option to pay for an ad-free experience and find the pricing reasonable, others feel that the game leans towards a cash grab model, making it difficult to progress without spending money on microtransactions. Overall, while the game is enjoyable, the monetization strategy has led to dissatisfaction among a segment of the player base.
- “The availability of teams and general features is mind-blowing, and there's no ads either.”
- “It's incredible, so rare and so refreshing to see these developers care about their game so much... even the microtransactions feel better knowing that you support these guys.”
- “I like that you don't need the in-app purchases to progress.”
- “Sometimes I can't close the ads after they end, which forces me to restart the match.”
- “A week ago, this game would have gotten five stars from me, but the ads have become so pervasive.”
- “It's a cash grab, and it's so obvious.”

The graphics of the game have received mixed reviews, with some praising their retro aesthetic and simplicity, while others feel they could be improved to enhance the overall experience. Many users appreciate the game's unique concept and gameplay, suggesting that high-quality graphics are not essential for enjoyment. However, there are calls for enhancements, particularly in terms of visual fidelity and stability, to elevate the game further.
- “Great graphics and many players to play at.”
- “I love the game and it has beautiful graphics and designs which truly show the gamer the time and effort it took to create it.”
- “Good game, great graphics, pure awesomeness and over 100+ leagues too!”
- “Simple graphics.”
- “Graphics are on par with games for Sega Genesis but it works.”
- “The retro 8-bit graphics of World Soccer Challenge are way better (the players here look like apes) & this is full of too much off-pitch management that is a waste of time for a game you only 'play' in defense or attack a handful of times a match.”
stability
17 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
100%
The game's stability is frequently criticized, with users reporting issues such as freezing during substitutions, glitches affecting gameplay, and persistent lag. Many players experience crashes that require restarting the game, leading to frustration, especially during critical moments like finals. While some acknowledge the game's potential and enjoy it despite these problems, the overall consensus highlights a significant need for improvements in stability and bug fixes.
- “Every time that I sub in and sub out a player, the game freezes, and I have to restart the game from the start, which is very annoying.”
- “I played the Champions League final against Spurs, winning 4-1, made a sub in the 81st minute, and it freezes up, forcing me to restart the app, which restarts the game.”
- “There are a few issues that need to be fixed, such as the fixture menu, which when clicked on, freezes the whole game.”
optimization

Overall, players express a desire for improved optimization in financial mechanics and AI behavior within the game. Suggestions include implementing a system for seasonal budgets based on club performance, enhancing revenue from ticket sales, and refining player development dynamics. While the game is praised for its enjoyment and addictive qualities, users feel that these optimizations would significantly enhance the overall experience.
- “Just discovered this game a month ago and I absolutely love it. I spend countless hours playing it; from the controls to the animation, everything is just so perfect. Though I think funds are hard to come by, it'd be great if you guys added a weekly income based on club performance, popularity, and stadium capacity. Other than selling players, there really isn't much money received, plus it would be nice if the board would give a seasonal budget, as competition rewards are so small and insignificant.”
- “I'd suggest adding stadium upgrades the same way you upgrade academies and training facilities (level 1-20). Depending on the level, at the end of the season, you receive a set amount of money from selling tickets. You could also make it so that the amount of tickets sold is affected by the team's performance. Thanks!”
- “Could you all please add a feature in which the player gets a new budget to work with every season? This is because it is very hard to play with clubs in League 6 of England. Another feature I would suggest is allocation of budget according to the club's performance in that season.”
- “Matter of fact, I believe the whole AI needs some sort of massive optimization in regards to playing outside the keeper box.”
- “The main problem is that some simple features are missing, like seeing current standings, team players' current performance, and how to make money.”
- “Could you all please add a feature in which the player gets a new budget to work with every season? This is because it is very hard to play with clubs in League 6 of England.”

Overall, while grinding can be fun, it may become tedious for some due to its repetitive nature and limitations.
- “I wouldn't mind grinding for transfer money, but I can't improve my team year on year.”
