Short description

Long description

Football Kick is a one-finger football game for iPhone and iPad, made for iPhone Duo. Fold the phone like a laptop and stand it on a table: the bottom half is the pitch, the top half stands up as the goal, and you swipe the ball across the fold into the net.

Swipe through the ball to shoot. Swipe speed is power, a longer swipe lifts the ball and a curved swipe bends it, and the wind moves it in flight. Just Kick is the easy way in, with no wind, a friendly keeper and a helping hand on every swipe. The World Tour has 30 levels across six grounds, from the Training Ground to the World Final, each with its own keeper and weather. There's also Quick Play, Streak, a Daily Kick that's the same for everyone, Practice, free kicks over walls that jump, and a Shootout against the CPU or a friend on one phone. Time slows for the woodwork, fingertip saves and the top corner, and the best goals come back as replays. Folded like a book, one page of iPhone Duo becomes a camera behind the net; closed, the game plays on the outer display. There are no ads, no accounts and no tracking, and it works offline.
