## What is Golden Goal?

Get ready for a fresh spin on on-the-go soccer strategy! Choose your coach, draft the perfect team, and unleash them on the field in tournaments that combine the strategy of soccer management with the fast-paced fun of mobile PvP real-time tactics games.

CHOOSE YOUR COACH
Earn and draft a seasonal lineup of larger-than-life coaches, each with unique strengths to build your squad around. Lead your team to tournament triumph, and level up your coaches to unlock advanced skills for the next tournament.

Acquire coaches as you play, and add even more by opening up Coach Packs. Each Coach Pack contains five coaches—a mix of Common, Uncommon, Rare, and Legendary quality.

DRAFT YOUR TEAM
Draft a growing roster of players over the course of a tournament. Spend your hard-won tourney earnings on new players, or upgrade your favorites to take them from a common player to a power pro. Match your squad’s attributes to form an unstoppable, strategically unified striking force on the field!

UNLEASH YOUR SQUAD
Place your players on the pitch in the perfect formation to maximize their potential as a team. Cheer them on as they draw on their skills and complementary abilities in exciting, fast-paced auto-matches.

DOMINATE THE LEADERBOARD
Compete against players around the world in seasons that refresh every month. Everyone’s coach collection resets each season—but you keep all your Gems & Coins, so you can open up a whole new batch of Coach Packs at each season’s kickoff.

### 2/5 — Needs significant polish

*2024-11-04*

I gave it a 2 because the main loop of drafting a team is serviceable and everything else is bad. 

The tutorial is bad, and you can’t go back to it because the tutorial button doesn’t work. At the end of a tournament you win gold and a chest - there is no way to access any “chest” that you’ve won. I have no clue what most of the skills do and there is no way to look them up. The reroll button is often unresponsive, the daily win reward button is unresponsive. There is no cross progression between my iPhone and iPad. It doesn’t save the name I set.

I am typically a fan of Humble Games, but this is not good or even finished.
