Soccer Story. Attempting to be Golf Story with soccer, but made by a diff company. Its charming in the same way Golf Story was, but isn't as good as its inspiration, and is currently suffering from several game breaking bugs. I already know I've activated one of the bugs on my file and will eventually have my progress halted once the story directs me to the NPC who won't talk to me now because of the bug. They are aware of the issues though and already working to drop a patch, so hopefully it won't take too long.
Game is free on game pass rn so if you have access to that it's def one to keep in mind if you liked GS at all.
Heads up though: the actual soccer is not going to play the way a typical soccer sim does. Not even close. It's 5v5 and powers come into play eventually. It's going to seem really hard at first when you actually try to play the game like you would normally, but once you figure out what you need to do it becomes kinda simple. And the 1v1 (actually 2v2 counting the goalie, but the game says 1v1) matches are extremely easy regardless and if you lose one of those you suck at games and should never play anything ever again.
