Learn About the Game Puppet Soccer Champions
You pick a little puppet player, choose a color for its outfit, and head straight into a tiny stadium that feels like it was pulled from an old-school cartoon. From the first whistle, the game is all about quick, punchy moves—you tap left and right to sprint, hit up to leap, and square to kick. Watching your puppet do exaggerated somersaults to clear the ball or plop onto its back after a heavy tackle never gets old. Everything is bright and bouncy, so even if you’re fumbling half the shots, it’s hard to stay mad for more than a second.
There’s a simple tournament mode that throws you into a knockout bracket against increasingly tricky opponents. Win, and you move on; lose, and you can either take a rematch or head back to the main menu to tweak your colors and pick a fresh avatar. It might sound bare-bones, but the matches feel surprisingly tense—especially when you’re down by a goal with just seconds left on the clock. And if you want to really ratchet up the chaos, there’s a two-player face-off right next to you, so you can duke it out for bragging rights.
What makes this one stick is that it doesn’t hide behind complicated menus or a million unlockables. You jump in, pick your puppet, and start chasing goals. There’s enough charm in the floppy limbs and goofy celebrations that it feels more like you’re messing around with friends than playing a serious sports sim. It’s not deep, but it’s a blast in five- or ten-minute bursts—perfect for when you just want a little bit of friendly competition without having to commit hours to learning a rulebook.
