Soccer Story is an arcade RPG with elements of a soccer game. The action takes place in a world with fantasy elements, where soccer games have been banned and it falls on our shoulders to save the sport.
Soccer Story is a sports RPG. The project was developed by Panic Barn studio, the authors of the Not Tonight series.
The action takes place in the near future, when a mysterious catastrophe caused the end of soccer games. Since then, the powerful organization Soccer Inc. makes sure that no one is able to even look at a ball, let alone play it.
We play the role of the boy (or girl) whom the Magical Soccer Ball chooses to be the Savior of Soccer. We will have to save our favorite sport and restore harmony in the world of sports.
Soccer Story combines elements of an RPG and a soccer game. We explore a large world with an open structure, complete tasks and develop our character.
Most of the challenges are in the form of arcade soccer competitions. Some of them are traditional matches between two teams, during which we have to face teams of sharks, ninja warriors or old men, among others. Other missions require clever use of the ball in completing sports challenges or solving puzzles.
The fun is enriched by numerous mini-games, which completely change the mechanisms of play and transform the game into, for example, a turn-based RPG.
Soccer Story offers a single-player story campaign sufficient for about 15 hours. A local multiplayer mode for up to four players is also available.
The game has nice graphics, done in a full-color retro style, where the environments are 3D objects, while the characters are pixelated sprites.

Game Ratings for Soccer Story Video Game.
Nintendo Life: 6 / 10 by Thomas Whitehead
Soccer Story delivers a colourful, charming take on the 'sports adventure', bursting at the seams with earnest effort and care from the development team. It's a fun experience, though it doesn't reach the heights of the genre's most famous release. Bugs and hitches pop up occasionally too, but if you're seeking some light entertainment and happen to love football, its cute visuals and charming world make it worth consideration.
Game Rant: 2.5 / 5 by Dan Carter
Soccer World is a valiant attempt at a Sports RPG, but fails to hit the mark.
Movies Games and Tech: 5.5 / 10 by Daniel Waite
Soccer Story is an unusual football-based RPG. With zany characters and colourful backdrops, this is a strange game to play. However, its reliance on simple quests and too much back and forth undermine its potential.
