Score! Hero 2023 Reviews

by BeCalmYa

This game is so much worse than the first. 1. The keeper is always like Ter Stegen on crack cuz nothing goes in 2. Opposition players can sprint from one side to the other just so they can intercept a through ball, even when the level requires a through ball 3. My players’ first touches and decisions are so bad, like I would pass the ball and he’ll dribble it out like, why? 4. Why not have ad videos to gain life? 5. So I tried to cross a ball once and it deflected off a defender and it went in, but guess what, NO GOAL. Also I would make some passes and the defender’s godlike defensive skills would intercept or kick the ball away, BUT IT WOULD GO TO MY PLAYERS, yet it won’t count the ball that it’s mine and woo hoo I lost a life 6. I noticed that when payment is done for more life or whatever, you can actually finish the level you’re at no matter how many goals and passes and errors, with no problems at all, I guess screw consumer rights, right?

There was a part of me, I think, that so badly wanted to give this game 5 stars. Aside from a couple frustrating team errors, I thought this was a great game. Perfect for a toilet game, or offline game, it seemed as if it may be worth the holy 5 stars. Every game has it’s small errors and I was prepared to accept that until I got to the worst creation of a training level someone could possibly create. Having to pass the ball to yourself by bouncing it off a small yellow wall seemed easy enough until for some unknown and bewildering reason, they threw in defenders. Ok, so, a bounce pass with a defender not bad, but let’s add another gate. and let’s not make that the hardest part. let’s make it so your shooting a 40 yard shot. But wait, it doesn’t stop there: let’s have there be multiple levels in this training session each more unfathomably ridiculous than the last.
I’m conclusion, I was deeply saddened and disappointed that I felt the need to leave a 1 star review as well as a written explanation of why I was so disappointed by a game with so much potential. I hope the creators either fix this issue, or delete the game and reconsider their career choices.
Hope you are well.

The game is very intriguing and I love the storyline and everything to it however there is a lot of problems. This game could easily be top 3 on ScoreHero2023 Store if it wasn’t for a few things. First off, the defending is ridiculous and don’t even get me started on the goalkeeper. Secondly, sometimes the players in offense take a heavy touch or run out of play when you aren’t even controlling it. Lastly, it is very obvious that the creators only want your money and not an enjoyable experience. I get to play the game for like 10 minutes before I lose all my lives and then I get to sit and wait for another 2 hours just to play again. It’s absurd and I can’t believe a game with the potential like this one has to be ruined by money hungry creators. Ads everywhere and constantly wanting you to spend money on their app. They should’ve made ScoreHero2023 like $2 and then never asked for a single penny ever again. This game got destroyed by the bad mechanics and the pay to simply play the game mentality.

This game is a worse version of the original score hero. I lose all of my lives because the defenders are insane and always get the ball off of my players first touch. It doesn’t help that
my players first touch is always in the direction of the defender nearest to them and not in the direction of the open space. I have lost more lives due to an error that the player not controlled by me made because of these garbage touches and decisions. I’ve noticed that your player does not attack the ball the same way the defender does. If there is any doubt as to whether your player can get it, then it is guaranteed he won’t. It also does not help that in order to score the ball per much needs to be in the top corner every time which makes it harder than it should be. I got the game because I wanted to redo the story but it is even worse than the original score hero. Until they fix what was mentioned in this review I do not recommend it.

When I saw this on ScoreHero2023 Store I was very excited to play it because it looked like it was going to be more efficient than the first one… But I stand corrected.
1. I will play my people perfect through balls and they just stand there instead of attacking it. the defenders on the other team however go to every single ball that I pass.

2. Even after I passed to my players and they get the ball they’ll be trying to do crazy moves around the opponent and just lose the ball under their feet and there’s nothing that I can do about it. This is horrible gameplay and if you want to put good defenders then make it so that you can dribble.

3. This is sort of 2A but let’s just call it 3,
My players make me shoot from very far away!!!! For instance I’ll be dribbling up the field and then my player will just stop and I have to shoot it from basically the midfield line!

4. Sometimes my players aren’t smart at all they will pass when no pass is needed so if I pass the ball to a guy and he has a straight run to the goal with only one defender on him that is basically behind him he always makes me pass to someone which makes the game 10x harder

thank you and the creators will probably never see this but, please take these suggestions if you ever make a third app

by Sliceofturkey

I have been enjoying this game a lot just like the last one, but its so hard to level up this game. The watching an ad idea in the last game was great and should’ve been moved up to this game. It’s also ridiculous that the defenders and goalkeepers are freaking gods when you play against them. It’s ridiculous. Oh and the unnecessary moves your teammates do when you pass them ball is beyond annoying. Just think about, you have to score 3 goals in a game and you are on the last goal attempt but when you pass to someone the either lose the ball or dribble past the line which is ridiculous and you have to start over again. I enjoyed the last game but I’m not really enjoying it right now. All I could as for is the watching ad opportunity because I can’t do anything as I have to restart levels over and over again

by FlamingAMVs

Ok a few criticisms…

WHY ARE THE OTHER TEAMS SO BROKEN!
I’ll be about 30 feet away and out of no where I see someone from the other team somehow run fast enough to block the ball from me. Not only that but their hit box are always active and too big. Literally if you have the ball and your character just slightly run past the other team player, you somehow lose the ball. And usually I am not a fan of mobile game ads but what’s the point of removing them. Money? Ignorance? The main point of a game is to keep a player to keep playing but you keep pushing people to pay to keep playing and that ain’t cool. And the timer to wait to play again is crazy. It says it’ll be done within 13 -20 minutes, you come back and it’s only still on the first heart. Look, I like the concept of the game but now they only made a sequel just to make money and not to let people have fun.

I swear my team has mental disabilities. “Yeah turning into the defender sounds nice” or “I’ll just sit here and let the ball come to me while there’s a 6’9 mvp defender running towards it” and the best one “I have 30 yards of space and it’s a 1v1 vs the keeper I think I’ll shoot here instead of taking some space” and you might think that having the ability to shoot wherever you draw would help right? Well no because scoring on this goalie is less likely than the US qualifying for the World Cup. This goalie is the best to ever be in goal. You are literally shooting it at a brick wall. And maybe you somehow get past a level well that’s too bad because you will probably have no lives left and have to contemplate whether you’re going to tear your hair out or step on rusty nails. Both of those options sound like more fun than this game. Don’t go through the trouble of getting this game save yourself.

by Worse Sequel

So a little birdie told me that there was going to be a sequel to one of the few mobile games that were actually good. Yet I was more disappointed in this game than Liverpool’s title defense.

The original Score Hero was pretty good. There were few flaws like the fact that your players had less of a brain than an infant. In this game it feels like the players have no brains at all.

The Design:
Is it just me or is that the way the characters look even worse than the first game. I know FTG aren’t the best in designing, but it feels like they put 3 extra layers of skin on the players.

The Gameplay:
Imagine all the flaws of the original Score Hero and dial it up to eleven. The goalkeepers are literal brick walls. If you get even lucky to get pass the goalie, there’s probably 2 more shots that you have to score. The defenders are basically on god-mode because it seems like their legs can go through your players and nick the ball away and if you manage to get a pass don’t worry, the defenders will just tackle the ball right away from your feet.
YOU ALSO CANT WATCH ADS ON THIS GAME, YOU HAVE TO BUY THE IN-GAME CASH!! If I haven’t said enough there’s more chance of Spurs winning any major silverware than you are at finishing a game without pulling your hair at least once.

The og Score! Hero had a flaw or two But it could all be saved by a lucky shot by you. But then the sequel slash Score! Hero 2 It really went down the drain, it was poo The goalkeepers are too overpowered They really are a big, giant tower Their saves, kicking, positioning too It makes me go and get the blues And don’t get me started on the defenders They make me want to surrender They peel through my attackers I’m not gonna lie, I think they’re hackers And why are my players so frickin dumb I swear I want to hit them with a big drum They pass when they could easily shoot I’m pretty sure their brain is minute And why am I given no space to pass I’m not gonna lie, it’s as annoying as tax Just give us space, it really won’t hurt It is so small I could put it on a shirt But don’t get it wrong it is somewhat good Though it’s not reached the potential it could I still indeed do enjoy this game Though please fix the fans, they’re clearly fake So boom, ja, there’s my review Hopefully this can help you It’s ok overall, but still not the best But go on, play it, you won’t protest

by Jodyeasap

After playing this game for a little while (i’m on level 102), i’ve come to the conclusion that this is more of a puzzle game than a soccer game. The game gives the illusion of free will allowing you to pass to any player, but on the higher levels especially, there is no chance of beating the level unless you follow a very specific sequence of passing.

This wouldn’t be so bad if the players on your team were able to receive the ball without acting like morons. So many times i have passed the ball to a teammate only to have them back away from the pass and allow a defender to get the ball. This happens over half the time unless you perfectly place the ball which is harder than it sounds.

All of these problems wouldn’t be a big deal if it weren’t for the energy system implemented in the game. In the later levels it is almost impossible to beat a level on your first try and you often run out of energy forcing you to leave the game for a while before you can play again. Also every time you make a mistake you have to wait for the rewind button to disappear which takes a few seconds.
I feel as if the money system would be enough and they should get rid of the energy system.

With unlimited energy this game would be playable but as of right now it is too frustrating to play constantly running out of energy.

by Sander12a

Developers please fix your game man. The graphics are good though, much better than games like FIFA Mobile and I like how you can chose the trajectory of where you want the football to go. But everything else is kinda bad. First off, it’s extremely annoying to get three stars on one level, and you need stars to advance to the next season. Secondly the defenders on the opposite time are god-tier, and there is a 99% chance the goalkeeper saves the shot. And the players on your team aren’t helping one bit. When I pass to them they will wait for the ball to come to them even though there is a defender going straight at the ball. Another extremely annoying thing is that the AI on your team decides to shoot the ball extremely far away from the goal. And I can’t do anything about it, so I have to shoot, and the goalkeeper will obviously save the shot. Secondly, the hearts system is super annoying and should be removed from the game. Some levels you have to score three goals, so combined with everything I’ve said before, the hearts are depleted extremely fast, and I have to wait hours to have the hearts filled again. So anyways, the developers probably won’t see this since they probably don’t care, but please fix this game, since it has many issues.

This game was really fun in the lower levels, but once you get past level 90 it’s more of a puzzle game. Instead of smart and accurate passing it turns into a game of which defender won’t go beast mode and clip through my teammate. Plus you can’t really control how the player you pass to shoots or passes leading into some awkward situations where the player has the ball turns to shoot/pass at an awkward time leading you to lose possession. Other than that I wish the customization was less of a grind and instead of winning customization pieces you could purchase them with the in game cash. Other than that the game can get really addicting sometimes. Once you find that right combo of passes will always feel amazing

I didn’t hear much about Score Hero 2 prior to its release, so I was going into this completely blind, and it’s safe to say I was pretty disappointed. Score Hero (the original) was a great game, but it had its flaws, the most well known one being the insane goalkeepers. There were a few other things that I felt kept the game from being truly perfect, and going into this, a sequel, I was hoping they would fix the things that held back the original. However, this was not the case, and it seems like what made this qualify as a sequel was its new graphics and a few licensed teams and leagues, which are very cool and add a lot to the game, but not enough to constitute it as a sequel. The game plays nearly identically, and still has the same flaws from the first game (players running out of bounds for no reason, players standing in offside positions for no reason, touches straight into an opposing player and losing possession, etc). Considering this is a sequel of the original and has the same exact gameplay, you’d think that the development of this game would go towards fixing the mechanics or adding new mechanics, but it seems to be a reskin of sorts, kind of like the other famous football game (F*IFA). Still a good game, if you liked the first game you’ll like this one, I personally was just hoping for something more. 3/5 stars

by Tommy#25

The game lets you rewind a play to retry when you make a mistake (or the game does) by letting you spend in game currency. You can get more by either making micro transactions or watching an ad. I usually just watch the ad and get more. Unfortunately, these aren’t the only ads. Every couple of levels the game will force you to watch an ad without rewarding you with bucks. This can usually be avoided by closing ScoreHero2023 and reopening but it’s still incredibly annoying.

As for the game itself, it’s basically the exact same as the first but with licensed teams. Licensed teams are cool but I wish they could’ve gotten the Premier League too. The original game was great but had a load of problems that this game still has. It’s a great concept, it just could be a lot better.

by Udel14

I don’t care about the passes to a player on your team who then turns around and gives us straight to a defender or runs out of bounds and you lose a life, or the goalie diving from one post to the other to make an impossible save.. it’s a game it is supposed to be challenging and I enjoy that.. But the fact that some/most levels of the game have a goal of hitting the post or crossbar is so annoying.. you can make the perfect passes and shots and the ball in the animation hits a post and not get credit for it.. hitting the post is a fun goal to have once in a while.. it seems like it is every other level though and is frustrating when you want to play the game but waste your lives trying to get 3 stars. Especially when those “losses” are from completely unrealistic reactions by the computer

by Nmsoccerboi

I loved the first game and was really excited to play the second, the graphics are much better and the game is much more smooth. I think there could be more done with player customization, like other people have said the defending is insane. I’m not saying we don’t like a challenge it’s just sometimes no matter how good the pass is the defender will still get the ball. To also include that the offense needs to improve as well, 50% of the time I’ll pass to my player and they will take the most unnecessary touch and loose the ball or the the defender will barley touch the ball and my player will still have it but I loose my turn because the defender touched it.
The training scenarios were also a great idea, except I wish it was more realistic like on a real training ground. Why are we in full match gear training and why is there a full stadium watching us shoot. It would be cool to also do pre and post match interviews and things like that, just make the game more realistic.

this game is quite fun. i enjoy how you can trace the path that you want the ball to go, and its graphics are very nice too. however, the defenders are fantastic and the goalies are 100x better. this is a problem on its own but when combined with the fact that our own players are completely incompetent is really frustrating. also the fact that i have to score 4 goals in one level and when a teammate makes ONE mistake and loses the ball to the absolutely god defenders i have to restart. sometimes levels take days to complete. also the fact that it is pay to win is incredibly annoying. i hope you guys are reading this. this game has so so so much potential.

by Skies.

I love this game series so much and I absolutely love the sequel but the defenders are just made by god themselves. They are so good it’s like I’m playing against prime Ramos and don’t even get me start with the goalkeeper. He’s the best gk I ever see in my life. He runs out of his box faster then neuer, reflexes better then yashin, kicking better then ederson, and diving better then Navas. Some levels are almost impossible it takes me days to complete. Also the teammates can be SO stupid some times, like why would you pass it to no one when you have a clear shot or when they do unnecessary moves and end up losing the ball. I love this game so much but PLEASE make the defenders worse and the teammates to do unnecessary moves.

by Danielth10k

So I say this is a very good game cuz it is, the only thing that’s weak is the bugs that are true that the gk is too op defense is way better and players running out of bounds or into defenders or players being in offsides. This could all be fixed but it makes the game more competitive. This game is amazing for many reasons, it’s an actual soccer career ur managing. It is very fun and u want to win for ur team and ur national team. The only thing I would add is more customization and different like pick whatever number u want or like body customization on.
