## About the game

Joel Football is one-on-one arcade football with oversized heads, a ball that never sits still, and ninety seconds to prove you're the best in the family. You run, jump, head it, lob it, dash with a double tap and, when you get it right, pull off a bicycle kick that sends the ball screaming into the net.

It started as a game for Joel, and then the family wanted in. Every player on the roster is a real person from the house: siblings, cousins, uncles, Mum and Dad. Pick Dad, lose to someone half your height, learn humility.

## Superpowers, paid for in maths

The Power Lab is where the cheat codes live, except they aren't cheats. To charge a superpower you answer a quick question: a two-digit sum, a times table, an exact division. Get it right and you walk onto the pitch with a Fireball ready to go. Get it wrong and the lab locks for five minutes. Kids figured out quickly that the times tables are worth learning.

## Two more games in the box

**Kickfall** is a twenty-level space course where trapped balls are waiting to be kicked free. **Disc Hockey** is fast top-down air hockey with a two-player mode on the same screen and a Crazy Mode where you face four rivals at once.

No ads. No purchases. No accounts. Your progress stays on your device.

## What's inside

- **90-second matches**: Score more than your rival before the clock runs out. A draw goes to sudden death.
- **8 players**: Joel, Bob, Lucía, Luna, Uncle Juan, Dad, Mum and Uncle Juanjo. Yes, the whole family made the team.
- **Powers earned with maths**: Solve a quick sum, times table or division in the Power Lab to charge Fireball, Ice Freeze, Big Guy!, Shield or Hyper Mode.
- **Kickfall**: A 20-level space course where you kick trapped balls free. Three difficulty settings.
- **Disc Hockey**: Air hockey with two arenas, a 2-player mode on one screen, and a Crazy Mode with four rivals at once.
- **Silly balls**: Six things to kick, from a classic football to a party balloon, a soda can and a cannonball. They all fly differently.

## Questions

### Is Joel Football really free?

Yes. The browser version is free, with no ads, no purchases and no account. The Android version will be free too.

### What age is it for?

It's built for kids from about six, and it's just as fun when a grown-up takes the other controller. The Power Lab maths ranges from two-digit sums to times tables up to 12.

### Can I play on a phone?

Yes. It runs in the browser on phones, tablets and computers, with touch buttons on screen. Turn the phone sideways. Tablets give you the most room.

### How do I get the Android version?

It's in closed testing on Google Play. Ask for an invite through the help form and choose “Join the beta”.
