Back in the good old days, this was one of our go-to party games when I was still playing on console. Now, one of my friends is moving to another country very soon, and we are going to play it again for nostalgic reasons. It may seem silly to buy a game like this at full price (especially during the summer sale), but this game has something special that makes it worth every cent. The balance of the three types of triangles is incredible, it offers different strategies for playing the game. It's a perfect example of the "simple to learn, difficult to master" type of game.

About This Game
We researched basketball, football, soccer, first-person shooters, and real-time strategy games. VIDEOBALL is a compact expression of all sports' mechanics.
Use either analog stick or the directional buttons to maneuver. Use any button or trigger to project a triangle. Only triangles can displace balls. Hold your button or trigger to charge a bigger triangle. Bigger triangles push harder. Stun opponents or cancel triangles with other triangles. Push balls into the opposing goal to score points. Score more points in order to win. Win in order to Feel Real Good.
