VideoBall is a sport everyone can play. VideoBall is simple enough for a party. VideoBall is deep enough for the best party ever. VideoBall combines our favorite elements of arcade shooting games, modern first-person shooters, and modern real-time strategy games with the depth of soccer, basketball, hockey, football, and rugby. In VideoBall you maneuver a player using directional buttons or either of your controller's analog sticks. Press any button or pull any trigger to project a triangle. Only triangles can push balls. Triangles also stun players on impact. Hold any button to charge bigger triangles. Bigger triangles push harder. Push balls into the opposing goal to score points. Hold a button long enough to build a defensive square. Shoot defensive squares to destroy them.
Incredibly simple to pick up and play, but with the potential for plenty of tactical approaches, Videoball is a great multiplayer game and I’d love to see it hit the esports scene in a big way.
Getting a handful of players together for local matches leads to simple, chaotic fun, but fewer than that leads to frustration and boredom
Videoball is a classy and low cost game that is manic fun in multiplayer and an okay grind in single player arcade mode. Don't let the simplistic looks put you off – have some balls and fire this up at your earliest convenience.
The final package of VIDEOBALL may be a bit lacking for those expecting a single-player experience, but for everyone looking for a fun local-multiplayer game, you are absolutely in luck!
Videoball’s greatest strength is that it understands the value of isolated, localized competition.
