Compared to other soccer titles like
Dream League Soccer 2022
or
FIFA Soccer
, Soccer Super Star provides
more intuitive and linear
gameplay that revolves around the idea of playing while on the go. It's a
condensed experience
that fans can play and enjoy in short bursts and is ideal for some casual gaming.
Score and defend
For fans of mobile soccer games, being able to play
intense matches
while on the go is great. An intricate control scheme is devised to facilitate that experience. However, it is not an ideal solution for when you want to play while moving about or only have
one vacant hand
to use. Enter Soccer Super Star, a title that addresses this concern with
flicks and swipes
instead of button taps.
This soccer game starts off in a fairly standard manner and aside from its
portrait-oriented
gameplay, will seem like most games you've played before. Start a match, and you will quickly realize just how much of a difference its controls make.
Pass the ball
with a swipe and
shoot for the goal
with a controlled flick—the whole experience just feels fluid and inspires confidence as you play.
Graphics and animation aren't anything awe-inspiring but are nice all the same, with good character designs and physics. Plus, it supports
offline gameplay
, so you can play even without an active internet connection. However, there is one area where it falters, much like its modern contemporaries and that is with
poor
player A.I.
Your teammates would often
behave erratically
for no apparent reason.
One-man team
Soccer Super Star set out to offer a different way to play the sport that is more mobile-centric and intuitive, and it handily succeeds in its goal. Sadly, it's let down by poor A.I. design and makes you feel you're really the only one playing the match. This issue needs to be addressed ASAP as it sours the experience quite a bit.
