‘Soccer Stars’ by Miniclip.com is a fun little soccer-themed mobile game, that combines elements of Air Hockey and Pool. Each team has five discs and in a turn-based game, you are required to slide the discs in order to hit the soccer ball in your opponents net. First to two goals is the winner and a lot is riding on each game. Each game, a wager is placed on the table for in-game coins. These coins are required for entering higher levels of matches and to join tournaments.
Gaming pioneer Miniclip came back into talks last week after releasing yet another Multiplayer game titled Mini Football. Miniclip is famous for its titles 8 Ball Pool and Mini Militia. They have published multiple Soccer games in the past in the form of Soccer Stars and Football Strike. This game is another 1v1 soccer concept from them.
