World Soccer Challenge

Game reminds me of sensible soccer. But the game play is very simple and limited. It feels "scripted" meaning you have to play and shoot in certain ways to score. It feels repetitive very quickly. But still a fun game. Can play as ARG 86 with Maradona. For me the biggest problem was playing in horizontal mode. You can barely see the goal before approaching the penalty box. Thus you can not shoot from far.

Defense is "wut." Like often you don't even get your finger to the screen in time before they score. No strategy, just madhouse speed. At least on offense it is almost like turn based strategy which I think is cool for soccer. Forget about trying a weak football country to win the world cup. It is impossible to beat the high power countries even on easy. Everyone is faster than your defense, they get to the keeper and run circles around him. It is insane. Game has potential though.

Entertaining game with a great premise. Qualifying & playing in past & present world cups is a nice touch. Only quibbles are that the real players are only on the countries that actually qualified for the respective world cups listed (or so it seems). Also, prior to 1994, in international football teams got 2 points for a win, not 3. That didn't change to 3 points until USA '94. Coloured medals to reflect difficulty are cool though, & there are plenty of teams to choose from in each tournament.

It has fun concept and i love that it has every national team in the world but the control is really a letdown when you defend. So hard to determine who you're controlling, no way to switch to another defender, you can only slide tackle, cannot run into the attacker. The practice mode only let you practice shooting with messi, whats the point? Also you should be able to control your gk when facing penalty kicks.

The game isn't that good. First off, the game is 50% waiting for the game to let you play, where you can only change aggression with no palpable change. Next, the defense part of the game is absolute trash. It is jarringly fast, and you often can't do anything to prevent a goal. Only the shooting portion is decent, but the gameplay is way too simplified, and you'll have 1 try when the enemy has 6. The variety of teams is nice, but lack of strategy means most teams get decimated by the few.

Good game, but controls when defending are a bit of a let down, it's difficult to defend at all properly, luckily the AI is usually quite poor at shooting! The team squads seem to be genuine player names until France 98, then tournaments prior to that it's all made up player names, which is a shame. One or two of the pitch side 'advertising' boards are quite funny as well! 😉😂

The game simulates the whole match and you only get to control your team when there is a chance to score a goal. The simulation heavily favours stronger teams to the point that, when you epseically play as an underdog, the game pretty much simulates your team to lose without you ever getting the chance to control your team. It really makes you feel like the game is more scripted than FIFA :P

The game is very boring,you barely do any thing and if you do the gameplay stops from have fun because you only play when your going to goal or enemy going to goal and there a very low chance for you to goal (In my opinion) the only good thing is the amount of country you can play.

It is simple but that is one of my favorite parts of the game. Plus it is a huge motivation to play and unlock different world cups. So if you chose the same team it is still feels different because the players change year to year. Honestly I played fifa less because of this game so thanks to the the people who made this game.

Defending is way too fast paced for you to make any impact on the game. There's no way to defend free kicks. You don't know which player you're controlling when defending. Some games are extremely weighted where you'll have 1chance compared to the opponents 7 or 8. If it gets a big update I'll happily re-install.

A really good game for people who just want a bit of fun and a competition. I think the graphics are what they should be (pixels.) But it can get quite disappointing when after u win the cup, there's no other different cup challenges after. I think there should be a CL version of this game aswell. But overall good game.

This could be a good game, if it wasn't for the fact that the game sometimes just decides that tge opposition is in on goal or scores from a free kick that you can literally do nothing about. The game just randomly decides that it doesn't want you to win. Also, what's with games not having the offside rule in it? It's just lazy coding.

The game has room of improvement. Controls are good but the speed of the ball when swiping is slow and poor. Can't shot flat on goal. Again, I don't have control of the game, I just see AI on target or having to mark opponent. I need control of the whole match. Again your graphics are terrible, do something about. It's very bad. You improve that you'll be almost to the standard of Match Score.

A classic old skool game, that features real world cups with real teams and players, without having to buy expensive packs. The game does need a graphical update, but still keeping its style and adding bookings, sendings off and injuries, with substitutes too, would complete this game and not only make it more fun than FIFA or PES on Android, but worth a five star rating too.

It's a good game overall, but it's impossible to beat a really good team with a smaller team and its more about luck than skill and your defenders don't slide tackle when you want them to and your goalkeepers get away from the goal when you want them to stay in goal. Download the game if your fine with unfair matches. 👎

REVIEW AFTER A WEEK "The app is unplayable, I can't get through a game without the app crashing. Do not install until they fix it. It's funny because the ads work perfectly but not the actual app, what a scam" INITIAL REVIEW "Fun when in offense but I would love control of the WHOLE match and slow things down on defense please, defense is so ignored. The app crashes and flashes randomly in the middle of a match on my Pixel 4 running Android 10 which is incredibly frustrating"

It feels more like a simulation, you don't get to control the team for whole match. If the controls were more like dream league, it would a be 5 star game. It awsome that they included small countries like El Salvador, most soccer games don't.

It's pretty good and I like it! Although it can get a bit repetitive. Maybe consider adding a club mode? And change up the defending controls a bit but it's still a really great game.

This is one of the best games I've played in a while but if the developers add a button the switch between shooting and skill moves ,adding other league ,and making the midfield useful like for getting a better goal scoring chance please add these ideas or take some of them

The only reason I'm giving this 4 stars is because of gameplay when you are defending One problem is that you can't tell which person you are Second is that you can't switch characters unlike other football games Third is you can only do one thing while defending which is slide which is very lacking for gameplay Fourth is that I want to control the goalie when defending

I really enjoy this game. Reminds me so much of the classic and awesome SWOS. Would be great if there was some club cup competitions, like Champions League etc. Only downside, sometimes you do not get that many chances, so you have to make them count.

Great fun. Although a little easy sometimes, the art is fantastic and controls are easy to use. Would like to see more world cups added in the future but still a very good game.

Good game, very annoying ad pop up and impossible penalties. The keeper saves every one. It end up being 1-0 penalty shoot out every time. Its a good game but annoying niggles

Give more update to this game, show them they play like a real soccer and add some features such as subtitution, changing formation. It will be more fun if they add features stuff. Great game with retro graphic (pixels).
