### 3/5 — Credits

*2023-02-28, version 2.43*

This game is really fun but waiting 15 minutes to play 1 game is stupid I know you can buy infinite for £5 but I don’t want to buy it right now so can you please reduce the time or just removing all together? If you so it’s an immediate 5 starts from me

### 2/5 — So much potential

*2022-10-03, version 2.43*

Like other reviews have said so much potential but the biggest bug bare for me is the table doesn’t add up.. I was 9 points a head on the league I lost one game and was then 3rd? A little bit more time needs spending on this.

### 4/5 — Very good and fun

*2022-04-06, version 2.43*

This game is very underrated and honestly probably the best football game I’ve played off the App Store.it’s got a hooking story as you work your way up and gives you stuff to spend in game cash on.there are a couple flaws though.the goalkeepers are often very glitchy and look like they won’t save a long shot just so their hands can teleport to the ball which is sometimes weird.the other thing is the energy system.many games replicate this sorta thing but I hate it because it limits how much I can play the game and I enjoy it but i can understand why this game uses energy systems as a way to make money because it’s smaller than the likes of score hero.great game give it a go

### 2/5 — Game is dropping off

*2021-12-02*

Used to be a fun game but now after a season or the game crashes every single time forcing me to play the game over and over again. I really love the game but losing interest cause their just not fixing this bug

### 4/5 — Fun game but…

*2021-07-28, version 2.43*

theres a lot of things to fix. i just played a must win match and the ball went in the net but didn’t count as a goal. the players should be able to rebound instead of just watching the ball roll out of bounds. sometimes the ball moves ridiculously fast so i don’t get chance to shoot and it messes up the game.

### 4/5 — So much potential

*2021-02-27, version 2.43*

This game is actually really enjoyable, I like how the way you strike the ball is different to a lot of games and that within it you can develop a career, train and purchase items to enhance your performance. The only downside is that it just needs to be developed just a tad further as in add a few more features, maybe some curve on the ball depending on how you hit it and some further animations to the gameplay to make it more realistic. It would really take this game beyond its competitors. Other than that it’s really surprising this game isn’t as popular as new star soccer or score hero. It’s quite underrated for what it is but it’s really not made the most of its potential.

### 3/5 — Too many bugs

*2020-08-01, version 2.43*

Great game when it works properly. After 4/5 seasons the game crashes and will not let you continue past the match you were currently on. Shame as the game is great. Other users have mentioned the other problems that really can’t be that hard for the developer to fix

### 5/5 — OMG

*2020-02-19, version 2.43*

I can’t get off this game. It’s so addictive! I recommend to everyone who loves football.

### 5/5 — Good enough

*2019-11-24, version 2.43*

This is one of the best games I played yet and it is real fun to play but the problem is I moved to PSG (kinda)
And what it did annoyed me because it kept me at the same club and I never got to play in PSG which I really wanted to do and I was really looking forward to play for them.

### 4/5 — Decent

*2019-05-11, version 2.43*

Pretty good game the only thing that annoys me is how it kept crashing after I finished my 4th season and how hard it is to get sponsors

### 4/5 — Really fun

*2019-04-21, version 2.43*

I love the game as my brother was playing it and told me to have a game on his iPad and I went to play on my iPhone 6s and it don’t work can you try to get it on iPhone and it will be one of my favourite games

### 5/5 — The best

*2019-03-23, version 2.43*

I love this game 😍😍♥️♥️ but the company should put update every week or month for clothes and quality please ♥️

### 2/5 — This game

*2018-06-26, version 2.43*

I was having a fun game until I tried to get my manager rating up but then the ball disappeared! So I went in to a game and the ball didn’t come back, the only time the ball shows up is when you try to tackle the other player so plz fix that bug. That’s why I only gave you 2 stars instead of 5

### 4/5 — Do ya know why the app is closing after a game continuously

*2018-06-19, version 2.43*

### 1/5 — HELP

*2023-01-26*

this was my childhood game, this was my favorite game to play as a kid. but when i got a phone it got deleted and i forgot abt it. but i got the game a few days ago and i was so excited to play it again but it won’t even let me play the game. whenever i try to log in i would be stuck on the loading screen. i was just in the loading screen right now for 5 minutes. fix this please and i will rate the game 5 starts.

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2022-11-12, version 2.43*

Does not let me in the game!,!!!😡😡🤬🤬🤬😠

### 1/5 — broke mfs

*2021-03-28, version 2.43*

this game meant for broke mfs because my iphone 11 don’t fit the screen properly

### 1/5 — Grr

*2019-07-06, version 2.43*

Used to love this game! Tried to get it to load and got stuck on the starting screen

### 1/5 — Geeeeez

*2018-06-26, version 2.43*

You can’t even load it up for god sakes

### 1/5 — Why

*2018-06-22, version 2.43*

Game is amazing I recommend it but it keeps crashing better fix it soon before people stop playing

### 1/5 — Good concept

*2017-07-07, version 2.43*

I've enjoyed playing the game previously and recently decided to go back and re-download it. However, it's unplayable as it will not load vast the initial screen. I've tried to rectify this by deleting and reinstalling it but nothing. It's a shame because it's a genuinely good game. One of the best iOS football games I've played.

### 1/5 — Annoying

*2016-12-17, version 2.43*

I start my game with full energy and everything's good you know. And then, about 30 minutes into the game I get subbed of for having low energy. Every game! Fix it now! I do not recommend this game.

### 1/5 — Lots of fifa-esque script

*2016-12-15*

Literally one season i'm doing incredible, scoring 30 goals in one season along with 23 assists. next season (no change in exp level) i can't complete a single pass, score a single goal, or complete a single dribble gesture. bad game

### 1/5 — Brilliant idea but

*2016-09-01, version 2.43*

I love the idea of the game but it is very poorly made. Really buggy and always closes after 1 or 2 games and the York City goalkeeper is better than Manuel Neuer sometimes in sick of the keepers saving everything and also hate the energy thing, if want someone to play your game you don't put limits on it. Would love to see how good the game would be if someone like FTS made it

### 5/5 — Good and decent

*2023-10-01, version 2.43*

First I just want to say that this game is magnificent wonderful and I am speechless it is the best football game ever good job to the devs but I would say 15 mins for credits that absurd ik u can buy unlimited for £5 but I am nine and what if little kids want to play and don't have money so pls reduce the time to 2 mins

### 5/5 — 🫡

*2023-02-21*

Great game, but it needs development and high quality (I hope you download a better update since a year and I'm waiting for the update)

*2021-04-17*

Love the game 100% very competitive and intriguing. Amazing but one question

How do we retire? At the end 

Thanks so much!

### 5/5 — All time favorite mobile game

*2020-12-08*

Played through this game multiple times on pretty much every phone I've had for the past 5-6 years. It’s a bit glitchy, but very well done.

### 5/5 — Amazing Game

*2020-09-02*

I think the simplicity of this game is what gets me hooked to the game. 

First off, I like that you start from the very beginning 18 years old wonder kid. You work your way up to bigger teams! 

I like the fact that you can choose your shot. Whether to curl the ball or smash it on top corner. 

I like the money aspect of this game.

Please make Soccer Hero 2 with more features!

### 5/5 — Enegy system

*2020-03-15, version 2.43*

AAAHHH
