How it feels

A goofy arcade romp where footballers punch through ninjas and demons in bite-sized action-puzzle levels.

About

The Mission', offers gamers the opportunity to play as some of the greatest footballers in the world. The aim of the game is to rescue a 'Geo Merlin' ball, which has been stolen by Ninjas who embody the forces of brutality and poor sportsmanship, to save the future of football in its purest form. Using a selected team of two footballers, the player must battle and puzzle his way through over 24 levels of action, dispensing with fire-spitting demons and innumerable Ninjas trained in the martial arts along the way. Contains a mix of elements from football, action and combat games.
