Free football game for kids

World Football Cup Kids is a fun, free-to-play sports game created by Best Football Games, especially for children. In this football simulator, you get to control a team based on real-world clubs and teams. However, they are all rendered in a child-friendly aesthetic, making them look like kids, plus a smooth animation that makes the experience fun and simple.

With World Football Cup Kids, experience the immersion of a real football game thanks to the sound effects, plus tense moments such as penalty shoot-outs. These features make this game a child-friendly version of FIFA Mobile: FIFA World Cup.

Play with miniature football stars

The first thing to notice about World Football Cup Kids is its graphics. Instead of going for a realistic view, it uses child-like visuals to make it instantly appealing to kids, like watching animated videos from YouTube. While it does work and appeal to a specific audience, this aesthetic comes at the cost of accuracy. It makes some characters lose recognizability, which could be resolved with extra features or hairstyles.

In terms of gameplay, it features a different control system that surprisingly works. Its controls replace the joysticks and round buttons with sliders and square buttons. Still, it works for managing the entire team, letting players control the team in real-time. Content-wise, there are a lot of countries available, with each of their rosters composed of real-world athletes. Most teams even allow you to switch uniforms.

As mentioned, difficulty is a surprising roadblock in enjoying this game. Aside from having to learn the controls, the opponent's AI is quite tricky. The game is marketed toward children but the enemy can give the player a hard time. Also, there are a couple of restrictions in this app, such as unchangeable lineups and fixed movement speed for everyone.

Cute but actually challenging

Still, World Football Cup Kids is a fun casual game that will definitely cater to football fans everywhere. With a cute, child-friendly visual that underscores a steep learning curve. For players looking to enjoy a relaxing session, without stressing over specific details such as appearances or stats, this is worth a shot. Just take note of its limitations and drawbacks.
