Football is the most popular game in the world. I have been myself one of the biggest supporters of Manchester United. While my statement might not be agreed upon by fans of other clubs, but what I’m going to say next will be appreciated by all. It’s no doubt that Match 3 games have been very popular among the mobile users and you can find many of those in the App Store. But talking about one more such game isn’t exciting enough to jump you off your seats. But what if we mix your madness for soccer with Match 3 puzzle? Sounds interesting? Well, if it does, then read on.

We are talking about the new iOS app, Soccer Puzzle League that has recently been released in the App Store and developed by Mach3Studio. The app is compatible with iPhone, iPod touch and iPad and requires iOS 4.0 or later version of the OS. We said to mix up soccer and Match 3 gameplay. But how do we do it is the main reason for your excitation. Let’s begin the game.

The game doesn’t involve you roaming around the field with a ball dribbling around your legs. The game is divided into some basic skills such as attack, defense and damage based upon your favorite style in soccer. The damage skill actually describes the damage you can take up. You need to add skills to your favorite style and then start the game. While playing, you need to make sure that you clear more goal spaces than the damage spaces in your opponent’s side. If you succeed, you take the game. But the opponent also keeps throwing away soccer points on your side to stop you from succeeding. So, you need to be quick and smart to ensure your win.

The game has a lot to offer. There are a total of 18 teams to select and 150 equipments to buy and upgrade. Other than that, you can also upgrade your own skills and use them to challenge the best of the opponents. The graphics of the game are sharp and clear and we’d prefer it to play on iPad for its big screen and retina display. The app UI is intuitive and fairly easy to understand. But the same doesn’t apply to the gameplay as well. It’s quite difficult to understand for the beginners. That’s why the developers have provided a trailer as well as tutorial to understand the game. You better take a look at them before continuing.

The app is available for $0.99 in the App Store. Other than that, you can also buy some in-app purchases like Gold Bag, Gold Briefcase, etc. ranging from $2.99 to $9.99. There are many achievements to unlock as well.

We really liked the gameplay and the overall concept. It was something grown from an old concept but was still refreshing to the eyes. We would recommend this app to every one of you.

Pros: unique concept, addictive gameplay, lots of content to offer.

Cons: none.
