Sociable Soccer 24

“Well worth a look if you’re into fast-paced footie fun.”

“Well, Sociable Soccer 24 is marketed as a fast-paced, fun, easy-to-grasp, and hard-to-master game that promises to keep players entertained for hours, it falls short of delivering on these promises. Although it might provide some brief enjoyment, the lack of challenge, combined with numerous other issues, renders the game unappealing. I wouldn’t even consider purchasing it as part of a Humble Bundle. In fact, it feels more like a bargain bin game from the early ’90s found at Walmart, lacking the quality and depth expected from modern titles.”

“Sociable Soccer 24 is a reminder of the good old days of football games, with gameplay that's easy enough to pick up and enjoy.”

“Sociable Soccer is a fun arcade-stye football game that plays like the complete opposite of the realism-focused EA Sports FC, and in doing so manages to be just as satisfying in an entirely different way despite its drawbacks. EA's big-budget game may be the equivalent of eating at a fancy restaurant, but sometimes you just want a burger, and Sociable Soccer is a delightful dose of fast food.”

“Sociable Soccer 24 is fun and reintroduces the arcade spirit of 16-bit soccer games at its best, while also trying to keep up with the times with unlockable players, daily rewards, and various other mechanics typical of mobile gaming, strictly without in-app purchases – you dare! The 1990s are long gone, however, so exceptional depth and gameplay for that era can now aspire to the title of "casual" at best. It's not a criticism, but that Sensible Soccer capable in its day of filling a lot of afternoons, today is just a game to get in a quick game or two from time to time.”

“Sociable Soccer 24 picks up the baton of Sensible Soccer, but we are clearly talking about a more modern and therefore different experience.”

“Sociable Soccer 24 is pure fun, but with a lot of compromises.”

“Sociable Soccer 24 will be a good alternative for those looking for a nostalgic game. Especially you will go back to the Amiga era and breathe the old Sensible Soccer air. However, I have to say that it is not very memorable with its structure and artificial intelligence that is a bit behind today's conditions.”

“Though Sociable Soccer 24 offers fun arcade football action (and with a lot of teams to boot), its slower speed and poor AI makes matches feel samey very quickly. This impacts the progression more than I would have liked, making climbing the ranks very uninteresting. But there’s a solid arcade game in here and I hope to see improvements made to the core gameplay overtime.”

“Sociable Soccer 24 impresses with its ludicrous amount of playable clubs to choose from, but I think that’s basically where the novelty ends. At its core, it’s a fun little throwback to simpler electronic footballing days, but maybe it is TOO stripped down of features. Even other titles from the 90s featured more mechanics and customization options.”
