Big Time Soccer (2016)

About this game

All the elements of pro soccer are here, including corner kicks, fouls, free kicks, goal kicks, penalty kicks, dribbling, passing, tackles and intercepted passes. Soccer wouldn’t be complete without yellow (and red) cards, and you’ll find them in the game, too, assessed with realistic frequency. So put on your jersey and shin guards, and get ready for some soccer!

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Strictly 2 players — no more, no fewer.
• Rules load. At 1.3/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 10 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
