Get ready for a delightful twist on the football genre with Pup Champs, an upcoming release for iOS and Android that combines the charm of adorable pups with the excitement of football. Launching on May 19th, this game isn't your typical sports simulator; instead, it's a captivating puzzler that challenges you to strategically move your team, make precise passes, and score goals while avoiding tackles from the opposing team.
Designed to be accessible for everyone, even those unfamiliar with football's offside rule, Pup Champs offers an engaging experience for casual fans and gamers alike. The game also features an inspiring underdog story, where you step into the shoes of a retired soccer coach mentoring a young team on their journey to become amateur football champions.
Pup Champs will be available as a free-to-start game, initially offering 20 puzzles to get new players started. While the concept of mixing pups with football might seem like a natural fit in our cuteness-obsessed world, especially following events like the Puppy and Kitten Bowl, Pup Champs surprises by focusing on puzzle-solving rather than sports simulation.
Developed by Afterburn, the team behind acclaimed titles such as Railbound, Golf Peaks, and Pulsar, Pup Champs promises not only style but also substantial gameplay.
