Accidentally saw this as i was looking through the reviews for Handball 21 while looking for a proper handball game with club teams and a club competition structure. And i found one. Thanks to whoever made this. It is not that far from PES/FIFA/NBA 2k series, and a step in the right direction for handball fans. Hopefully there is an update or a sequel with better visuals and arena atmosphere, that would be the only CON i have with the game really. Big PRO is a huge edit mode similar to PES/NBA/Football Manager where you can create your own league entirely with a little bit of work. As licencing would be an issue for a small studio like this, allowing us to edit everything like this as long as the IHF structure is kept is more than enough. As i was saying above, just allow us to import banners, waving flags, possibly arena custom logos to further customise everything. Online sounds fun although i couldnt find anyone to play with(it is a 2018 game i play in 2021 after all), but stil...

So far I like this game-there are some bugs and rough edges that need attention but early indication is that the developer is open to conversation and improvement. That is something the other handball game by Big Ben never did, not one update or patch for either of their games! I'm an American with a limited knowledge of Handball but the ability to edit just about everything in the game as well as multiple season play gives this game a tremendous amount of replay value. I really think for the price if you have any interest is this sport at all it is worth a try.
Those looking for an alternative to bigben interactive's handball games should look this one out. It's far from being any "ultimate handball game" but it feels better in terms of translating the whole essence of the sport to a gaming sim. Plus... powerful creation tool to add and remove teams and leagues, can't go wrong with that! ;D
Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this game. The graphics are plain ugly, actually so bad and clunky that it affects gameplay. I also couldn't find a view which I felt like comfortable in playing and having a good overview about what's happening in the field. The gameplay isn't there as well. It feels like guiding a team of ill-programmed robots. To be honest, it is not even worth the discounted price (I think I paid like 5€ or so). I really feel bad about this, because the game is very moddable which I like, but it's not worth to invest any time into it. I wish it would have been better.
Intial looks are vey good. The ability to customize leagues and teams is a huge plus. Looking forward to how the game develops forward. Update. This really is a solid game. Well designed and programmed.
Sorry, I really wanted to give it a chance, but it's just too janky. I understand that it's just an indie game but I just can't recommend it unless you're okay with playing what feels like a completely unfinished game.
FUN GAME AND AT LEAST IT LOADS UNLIKE ANOTHER 2 GAMES IN THIS GENRE, STARTING WITH IHF... Only thing that annoys me, is the stuttering when the goalie throws back the ball to his players after a goal is scored. Apart from this glitch, game runs very smooth and will enjoy trying out the editing option soon. More realistic than HANDBALL 16 OR 17, they feel more arcade style in feeL. It would also be nice if the Developers worked on the animations a bit more, as they are a bit stiff.
