Free mobile soccer game
Score! Hero 2023 is a sports game that puts players in the boots of an up-and-coming soccer superstar. The sequel to the popular free soccer game, this game shares the same gameplay as the first Score! Hero game. Only this time, you will play for officially licensed teams.
Score! Hero 2 also boasts better graphics and animation. It even comes with a brand-new endless hero mode and allows you to sync your progress across devices via Facebook. However, this make-over took a toll on the AI players, which now move either too slow or too fast.
What can you expect from the game?
As with the first Score! Hero, this game will not have you play an entire match. Instead, you will complete levels where you will recreate key plays to clear them. It is not about winning the match either, but meeting the challenge posed in each stage. The game has hundreds of levels. The first ones will be short plays, but as you progress, the challenges will be harder.
This game veered off from make-believe teams to officially licensed ones. With this, you can choose to become a player from some of the world's greatest teams. There are more than 90 teams, allowing you to sign up with your favorite. Not only that, but the levels here will have commentaries from the top commentator, Arlo White. Moreover, you can hand-pick your hero's look using its extensive customization options.
However, despite having better looks and other nifty additions, it seemed that the first game is still better, performance-wise. A few minutes into the game, and you will find that the AI players move ridiculously. Your teammates move slowly, often failing to retrieve the ball you pass. Moreover, the goalie is somewhat superhuman, able to move from both ends of the goal in a flash.
Not the sequel the players need
Considering the popularity of the first game, Score! Hero 2 is a welcome addition to the growing list of soccer games. But with the way things are now, the game is more of a disappointment to the fans. Sure, it has new offerings, such as better animations, a new hero mode, and officially licensed teams. However, its performance does not hold a candle to its predecessor.
