Football Legends is a head-football game played one against one on a small side-on pitch. Big-headed players jump, slide and shoot to knock the ball into the other goal. Each player also has a special power shot, which makes every match a bit unpredictable.
How to play
Pick 1 Player, 2 Players or Quick Match from the title screen. You can then choose a Tournament or a Friendly. In a tournament you pick a team, then a player, and work through knockout rounds such as the Round of 16. Each player has a special ability shown under their picture, such as Fireball.
In a match, run, jump and shoot to get the ball past your opponent and into their goal, while stopping them scoring in yours. A timer runs at the top of the screen and the score is shown at the bottom. The supershot button uses your special ability once its meter in the bottom corner is ready.
Controls
- Arrow keys: move and jump (one player)
- Down arrow: slide (one player)
- X: shot (one player)
- Z: supershot (one player)
- W, A, D: move and jump (other player)
- S: slide (other player)
- L: shot (other player)
- K: supershot (other player)
Tips
- Wait for the supershot meter in the bottom corner to fill before using it, so your power shot is not wasted.
- Jump to meet high balls with your head, as the ball often bounces above the players.
- Use the slide to reach the ball before your opponent or block a shot near your goal.
- Stay between the ball and your own goal when your opponent has it.
- Try a Friendly first to learn the controls before starting a Tournament.
Who it's for
Good for football fans aged around 8 and up, and fun for two people sharing one keyboard. Matches are quick and easy to pick up, though beating stronger opponents later in a tournament may take practice.
