You’re on lockdown. Your friends are on lockdown. Your favourite football team is self-isolating. Every top league in the world is suspended. So what’s next? You play FIFA or PES trying to take your mind off the fact that there’s no football at least until the end of May, but you’re bound to get bored of those two games, sooner rather than later.
Without further ado, here are five top football games to play on your phone apart from PES and FIFA:
1) Dream League Soccer 2020
Dream League Soccer 20 is a great game to play because, unlike FIFA, the game offers a league mode and real-time multiplayer. The game has just one league which consists of six divisions. You start in the ‘Academy’ and work your way up. World-class players are not available in the academy division, but you can buy new players in the transfer market. Progress through the next division by upgrading the stadium and finishing in the top four. If you get bored playing offline, you can play online matches with other opponents, the multiplayer connection is pretty stable and does not lag much.
2) Top Eleven Manager 2020
Top Eleven Manager 2020 has been a huge favourite since years for most gamers. And now that Jose Mourinho’s renewed his contract with the game, it makes it even more worthwhile to play. Top Eleven Manager has the most complete, up-to-date, correct database with the current state of players in the clubs, leagues, and championships. This latest edition comes with a revamped ground animation setup, new music, images, and the player requested feature – Youth Academy. It offers you the opportunity to develop players from a very young age and carry them onto a future of our own making, with the success of your club and the sport.
3) Online Soccer Manager (OSM) 2020
Step into the shoes of a football manager and run your favorite club. Sign a contract with a team of your choice and be their manager for a whole season. From team selection to player training to club finances, you will be in charge of it all. You also have the opportunity to manage a number of national teams and clubs in various leagues all around the world. One of the best features Online Soccer Manager has is that you can mix and match players from different teams and create your own super team.
4) New Star Soccer
New Star Soccer lets you live the unique life of an up-and-coming footballer. You start out in the lower leagues and work your way to the top by training hard, scoring goals and keeping your boss, teammates, and fans happy. The game starts in an Arcade Mode which familiarises you with the game’s core mechanics – the slingshot controls, shot power, the directions of your shot and more. New Star Soccer is a very simple game with basic graphics and gameplay, but much like a good football team, it’s much better than the sum of its parts.
5) Score! Hero
Score Hero is a clever, strategy-based football game that has the potential to keep you hooked for hours. Instead of hitting a directional pad and 4 buttons on to the small screen for our fat fingers to struggle with, it focuses on slowed down, puzzle-styled gaming.
Before one starts going a little crazy being stuck at home because of the Coronavirus pandemic, here are 5 football games to play on our phones apart from PES and FIFA.
