Soccer Spirits Review

"Fantasy Soccer that's out of this world!
Assemble the best soccer team in the galaxy to defeat the League of Evil!"
Soccer Spirits is the new mobile game from Com2uS, available in Android and iOS. Originated from Korean developer BigBall, it was released for global audience several months ago. Soccer Spirits tried to combine soccer with RPG element. And, the result is outstanding! A very solid gameplay combined with amazing arts and catchy music make this game worth your time (...and money) to play.


Beginning of the Journey

Before the journey begin, you'll be presented with a character selection. You can choose between Sam or Noa as the main character. If you  choose Sam, Selena will be the guide throughout the game, and if you choose Noa, the guide will be Eve. There is no significant difference between these two, so pick whoever you like.


After a character's been picked, a tutorial will begin. The tutorial will teach everything about the basics of the game. How to beat the enemies in a match, power-up the teams, get the players, etc. After tutorial finished, you can finally begin your own journey to Soccer Spirits!

Gameplay

Soccer Spirits setting is set around the Galaxy League, where players need to gather best players from around the Galaxy to win the league and to save the world?

Soccer Spirits has a Story Mode, even though at the moment there's not much to offer here, except to farm exp, gold, and crystals. There's no real story here, except at the beginning tutorial, however that is bound to change because the developers are going to add real story here and it will be a huge update set for Q1 2015 release.

Soccer Spirits also has Colloseum Mode, where the player challenges overpowered teams and climb the floor as high as possible and compete the rank with other players. The better rankings will be rewarded with more crystals. Galaxy League is the mode where the player will compete with other players in PvP mode. Both teams will be controlled by AI and the match will be automatic. Therefore, here the players positioning and strategies are very important. And, this is one of the charms of Soccer Spirits, where stronger teams will not necessarily win, even a weaker team can beat a stronger team with right strategy.



A match in Soccer Spirits is decided in one goal. After all, a soccer match between aliens can't be ordinary, right? To win a match, we need to deplete enemy's goalkeeper HP. Each player has an action bar, when the bar full the player is able to take an action (steal, penetrate, shoot, etc). Skills plays important role here, because each player has its own set of skills, some will only affect itself, and some will even affect the whole team. That's why it's important to pick right player in the right place. Here's a sneak peek of a PvP match between top players:



Recruit Players

"Okay, I'm sold! Now, how to get good players?". To get the players, you need to use crystals to summon players. Crystal is very valuable resource in the game and hard to find, unless you pay of course ;). Fortunately, the game also provide Scout System, where you can buy players by using GP (Glory Points). GP can be obtained from Colloseum and Galaxy League and is also a valuable resource in the game. 

Player Draws

Player Scout
Afterword, Soccer Spirits is an excellent game in my opinion. This game has given me an enjoyable experience so far and I hope it will do so continually. My native language is not English, so if you find my English is annoying or boring, I beg for your forgiveness m(_ _)m. 

Soccer Spirits is available in Android and iOS now, so please pick your own poison XD
