Soccer Story

About

Soccer Story is a quirky adventure RPG where you fight a corporate ban on soccer using a sentient magic ball. You solve puzzles and battle obstacles by launching the ball with precise physics-based kicks. The game blends top-down exploration with turn-based combat where soccer skills replace swords or spells. You collect upgrades to unlock new tricks like bouncing through vents or knocking down barriers. The game stands out for its absurd humor and creative mechanics. Players praise its inventive use of the spherical weapon (Metacritic 73.5) and lighthearted take on dystopian bureaucracy. Two-player co-op lets friends pass the ball literally and figuratively through shared challenges. With 100+ puzzles and a satirical story about reclaiming joy, it offers 15-20 hours of couch-friendly fun.

Storyline

It's been a year since The Calamity tore apart the very foundations of soccer as we know it, and since then, Soccer Inc. has made dang well sure that not a soul has been allowed to even look at a soccer ball, let alone kick it. Soccer may have been banned across the world... but now there is hope! A magical soccer ball has chosen you, our Savior of Soccer!
