Get ready for a delightful twist on football with Pup Champs, an upcoming game for iOS and Android that combines adorable pups with the sport, launching on May 19th. But don't be fooled by the canine charm; Pup Champs isn't your typical sports simulator. Instead, it's an engaging puzzler where strategy is key. Your mission is to guide your team of cute dogs to score goals by making clever passes and avoiding tackles from the opposing team. The game is designed to be accessible, so even if you're not a football expert, you can still enjoy the thrill of the game.
Adding to the charm, Pup Champs comes with its own heartwarming underdog story. You'll step into the shoes of a retired soccer coach, mentoring a team of young pups as they strive to become amateur football champions. It's not just about winning games; it's about the journey and the growth of your furry team.
Launching as free-to-start, Pup Champs offers 20 initial puzzles to ease new players into the game. While the combination of dogs and football might seem like a natural fit for a sports simulator, especially in a world obsessed with cuteness like the Puppy and Kitten Bowl, Pup Champs surprises by focusing on puzzle-solving instead. Developer Afterburn, known for their work on acclaimed titles like Railbound, Golf Peaks, and Pulsar, brings both skill and style to this charming game.
