About this game

A game like soccer by Dieter Stein. Gameplay The game is played a certain amount of time (2 × 20 minutes are recommended). After the first half players change sides. The player scoring the most goals wins the game. On each turn, firstly, a player throws the die. The number thrown represents moving and attacking points, which can be distributed freely among the football players (and/or the goalie) of the own team. Points can be used as moves or attacks. Soccer teams are purchased separately, so that players can choose their favorites. Available teams are: - Spain - Brazil - Germany - France/Italy - Portugal - Netherlands - Argentina - England/Switzerland - Australia/South Africa - USA/Uruguay

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Strictly 2 players — no more, no fewer.
• Rules load. At 2.0/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 6 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
