Behold the Kickmen is a single-player football parody with invented rules and an absurd story. Lead a new club from the lower leagues toward the World Cup, with melodramatic scenes and dialogue between matches.
Play matches by passing, shooting, tackling, and using player skills on a circular pitch. Longer-range goals can earn extra points, and chaining skills before scoring earns money.
Use match earnings to improve your squad and its abilities as you progress through the leagues. Quick play offers adjustable match setups, and a switch can re-skin the game as a dystopian bloodsport.
Players who enjoy the game often praise its absurd take on football, comic dialogue, and story, along with the novelty of a deliberately un-serious arcade sports game. Some also enjoy building up a team and moving through the leagues. Other reviews find the controls awkward or the matches repetitive, so the humor and unusual premise are not enough for everyone.
