I have been playing it and it is like a stripped down version of Sensi. I have gone for the story mode which has so far consisted of me buying my local club that was about to go under for £1 and playing half a dozen games in the amateur league (I assume there is promotion to the next level at some point).

The controls are directional movement and a fire button that you hold down for how hard you want to shoot, with some after-bend available. There is no heading in the game.
The ball sticks to your players feet as it would in Sensi, rather than bouncing of them as happens in Kick Off 2.

What I have played so far, while being relatively enjoyable, has been ridiculously easy. I have yet to concede a goal, don't bother to use my wingers/ wide midfielders and just a couple of passes up the centre of the pitch to my strikers and then shoot.
The refs are super lenient, I am hacking the opposition to pieces and have so far received one yellow and one red card.

I am hoping that the game will become more challenging when I eventually get promoted but I think the real fun to be had here has to be in multiplayer.

Thanks for clarifying.

That's a very good thing in my book. I want to relax when playing games. No need for frustration :)

Safe to say that if you bought it for £1, it already had gone under. ;P
It's a good Sensible Soccer homage.

It's cool to see their first game here on GOG, even if currently they have a 50% discount on it on Steam, but not on GOG.

I hope it will do fine anyway, so they'll bring Full Void here as well (and that*s the real prize).

Sensible Soccer runs in 320x200, I don't think you can be much more pixelated than that.
