Leave a Review New Star Soccer G
It's a game book
Dilly ding dilly dong! Can't believe people are criticising it for having too many words! As it says this is a story with game elements. Have read it a couple of times and it is very different when you take different choices or mess up with the gameplay. I didn't even win the cup! Interesting experiment!Show lesssteveskids
Very good game with a little room for improvement
Like others I bought this game because I love NSS. I liked the different approach which the developer has admitted is an experiment. It is also an admirable attempt to encourage young(ish) football fans to read more (something else admitted by the developers). I thought it well worth the money, enjoyable, the graphics have had a polish and I liked the fake media outlets included in the story. Immersive, top stuff!Show lessRob1878
Great idea but way too short
I really like the idea but it felt like they could have made the story longer because just as it felt like it was getting started, it ended.
Also, the choices barely make much difference overall. I played again and missed every opportunity. I started off thinking maybe if I miss every chance, the game just ends near the start because the scout doesn't think I'm good enough? However, you still get told you played amazingly in most parts of the game and there's a match where the game forces you to score a hattrick despite missing every chance. I thought it would be more like those choose your own adventure books I had as a kid where you can "lose" and end the story right near the start if you make bad decisions.Show lessBenRFC
Needs improvement
It's a good idea and the game isn't bad, yet it could be so much better. First off like others have pointed out its far too short. Even though this game is based on it's storyline the story itself starts to drag slightly. After playing half way through the game I found myself skipping a lot of the dialogue because it either didn't interest me or it was too long and boring. The interactions should be much more in depth rather than it just being a copy and paste short novel. If you tend to skip the story then this game is ridiculously fast to finish and feels unfulfilling. There's also not enough actual gameplay like in the first game and tends to disappoint because of this. Finally you only play one season which is no where near enough to feel like you accomplished something in this game, it only feels like only the beginning of it rather than the whole career. For it's price this game seems very disappointing but not a complete flop. It needs work!Show lessAussie Owen
Great game
Totally worth the investment, a great game, I just wish that the story went on for longerJ.a.c.k is rad
ARE YOU JOKING?!
£2.99 for that? It's just flicking through uninteresting pages of an extremely average and predictable story! How much depth and progression did you expect to squeeze out a 2D football app? The writing just comes off as cheesy and extremely cringe-worthy most of the time. And, there's hardly any actual football that takes place! I'd say around 10% of the whole story (about 40 minutes if you're a fast reader😂) takes place on the pitch, as you only play a handful of matches - but that doesn't matter cause it's not like there's a competitive league table like last game or anything, it's just an anti-climactic cup run.
Needs serious improvement and no way it's worth £3. Complete rip-off!Show lessBite the bullet3
Nice idea....then half finished.
Loved the first game before it became an overload of ads. See the new game was paid so had it in my mind that we could all enjoy the great fun of the first game without all crap they piled on to it in later updates.
The good news is, the latter is true! No ads and a great story that reads well and make what I thought would be the start of an epic rise to stardom. This is were is all falls down, there is a rise but it's sort lived and at the end of what I assumed was my first season the game was done. No follow on after the story, just a try again and make different choices and the story will be different.
There was only around 10 choice to make in the so called career mode so no real depth after playing 2 or 3 time. I feel that £2.99 was a lot to pay for was it an e-book with very limited fragment of the old game laid on top.
I'm sure hard work went into the story but in my eye the developer has just sold me and everyone else short.
MORE MODES!
MORE NEW GAME FEATURES!
MORE GAME PLAY!
How you could play this game and say it's worth the money the developer is asking for it is beyond me. Wait for updates and see if this idea grows before you spend cash that could get you a lot more game for your buck.Show lessfrenchie833
Think of it as NSS but with a better story
Bought this game because I was a big fan of New Star Soccer. While this game has similar elements to NSS, there is a bigger aspect of story to it. The writing is very good and the graphics have been improved. Only problem is that there is too much story. If there was a bit more balance between the story and game I would have rated this 5 Stars. BRING OUT MORE CONTENT PLEASE, I HAVE COMPLETED THIS ❤️Show lessx ILuKE x

Nss action, writing better and funnier than I am playr, worth the investment.Pittiqueenofthedesert
Promising but feels like half a game.
Actually think the writing is pretty good and it reads well. Just that it feels like the story is just setting the scene and the real game should start after. The game as is, finished within 1-2 hrs of play.
I think it should revert to like the old NSS once the story finishes and you go through the rest of your players career like that. As is you play just a handful of matches over half a season and then that's it. After getting into it it feels very anti climatic.
There arguably is some replay value but as it is I doubt I will do that just to deliberately make poor decisions to see how things go in that scenario.
Could be great but needs extending or the original NSS building in to make this more than a 2-3 star game and worthy of the price.Show lessMikeGoodie
