Monster Truck Soccer is exactly what it sounds like, and that’s both its strength and its weakness. It’s a chaotic, 2D physics game where you drive a monster truck to hit a giant soccer ball into a goal. The physics are 'floaty' and unpredictable, which leads to some hilarious moments where you accidentally flip over or launch the ball into orbit.

It’s clearly meant for short sessions. There isn't much depth beyond the initial concept, but the variety of trucks and simple tournament modes provide enough entertainment for a quick distraction. The graphics are simple and bright, and the controls are limited to just forward, backward, and jump. It’s basically 'Rocket League' for the casual mobile crowd, simplified to the extreme. Fun for a few minutes, but lacks the staying power of more complex titles.

Dinsun Review

Monster Truck Soccer is a title that clearly attempts to ride the coattails of the vehicular soccer genre, yet it strips away everything that makes those games mechanically compelling. Confined to a 2D plane, your tactical options are reduced to driving forward, reversing, and awkwardly attempting to jump into a highly unpredictable physics object. The core game feel is thoroughly unrewarding; the trucks feel incredibly floaty, lacking the weight and friction one would expect. Scoring a goal feels less like an achievement of skill and more like a lucky roll of the physics engine.

Compounding the mechanical shallowness is a presentation that borders on amateurish. The UI is cluttered with prompts to purchase upgrades or view advertisements, constantly interrupting the already meager flow of gameplay. The AI opponents range from entirely brain-dead to frustratingly omniscient, highlighting the lack of balance in the core code. It is a disposable piece of software that cannot hold up to even the mildest critical scrutiny. Avoid it.
