Finger Soccer

Finger Soccer is a casual arcade football game where everything is decided with your finger. The controls are simplified to the extreme: the player moves the ball across the field and sends it to the desired point, and the football players look sketchy, because the main thing here is not them, but the flight path. Top view and fully three-dimensional graphics are a rare combination for this genre. The matches are short and full of excitement: one wrong finger and the ball goes to the opponent’s goal. Simplicity does not mean a lack of depth: to win regularly, you need to understand how the ball bounces off players, how ricochets work, and when to take your first shot and when to wait. There are modes for passing, tests and matches with the computer of different difficulty levels. Scoreboards and small rewards give you a reason to return to the game and improve your own score. Even the fans in the stands here are three-dimensional, which is noticeable on the screens before the start of the match. Separately, it is worth noting that the game has results tables and rewards for completing without errors. The levels vary in design and complexity, so at first, easy matches are replaced by tasks where precise calculations are needed. For a casual arcade game this is a good balance. The project is designed for short sessions: it’s easy to log in for five minutes and just as easy to lose half an hour. For those who like casual games with clear mechanics, the Finger Soccer is a pleasant find.
