## In short

Spotstrike is a 3D soccer kick game. A ball sits in front of a wall of defenders, a goalkeeper guards the net, and you swipe from the ball toward the goal; goals show their points, and Tournament, 2 Players and Practice modes are on the start screen.

**How to control it:** Press Practice. Put the pointer on the ball, hold the mouse button, drag toward the goal and release; add a sideways angle to get past the wall. Use Change Pos at the bottom left to move the ball and Pause at the top right to stop. In 2 Players, Red and Blue take turns.

**Spotstrike** is a 3D soccer kick game. The ball sits in front of a wall of defenders, a goalkeeper stands in the goal, and you swipe from the ball toward the net to try to score.

## How to play

1. On the start screen, press **Practice** to try the kicks on your own.
2. Put the pointer on the ball, hold the mouse button and **drag toward the goal** , then let go. On a touch screen, swipe from the ball.
3. Add a **sideways angle** to the swipe; in our tests, straight-up swipes never scored.
4. A goal shows **GOAL!** with the points it earned, and a miss shows **MISS!** .
5. Press **Change Pos** at the bottom left to move the ball, or **Pause** at the top right to stop.
6. Choose **2 Players** to share the screen: Red and Blue take turns and each team has its own score.

## What you see on screen

- **Start screen:** the Spotstrike title above a player in a red kit, with Tournament, 2 Players and Practice buttons.
- **Kick screen:** the ball, a wall of five or six defenders, the goalkeeper, and the score and level at the top left.
- **Tournament:** the same kicks with a thin yellow bar along the top edge of the screen.

## Tips

- Do not swipe straight up the middle. All 24 of our straight kicks scored nothing.
- Try a sideways angle: about 50 pixels across for 170 up scored in both directions.
- Do not trust one session. Right scored 30 points and left 20, but each was only eight kicks.
