Overview
Behold the Kickmen began as a simple joke on Twitter and has since blossomed into what can only be described as the year's least exciting, and most certainly incorrect, football simulation. Developed and published by Size Five Games, this indie title offers a unique take on the beloved sport, viewing it through the eyes of someone utterly unfamiliar with, and uninterested in, the actual Laws of Football. Players start at the very bottom of the 'Big Boring British Football Spreadsheet system' and must painstakingly work their way up through gruelling matches to achieve footballing greatness and claim a World Cup for their virtual mantelpiece.
Highlights
- A Twisted Football Experience: Forget realism; this game embraces absurdity, presenting a football simulation that hilariously misunderstands the sport.
- Progression and Management: Climb the ranks of a fictional football league system, managing your squad and playing match after match.
- Story Mode Mayhem: Dive into a full story mode filled with overblown melodrama and nonsensical player decisions.
Who It's For
This game is perfect for players who enjoy sports simulations with a heavy dose of humor and a complete disregard for authenticity. If you appreciate indie games that take a well-known genre and turn it on its head with comedic effect, Behold the Kickmen is a must-try. It's also great for those looking for a casual, action-packed experience that doesn't take itself too seriously.
