85/100

Soccer Brawl ACA NEOGEO is a fantastic trip down memory lane. Originally released by SNK in 1992, this isn't your typical FIFA simulation—it’s a futuristic, cybernetic arcade sport where fouls don't exist and bionic limbs are the standard. The ACA NEOGEO series does a perfect job of porting the original arcade experience to mobile, including the ability to adjust the difficulty and display settings to mimic an old-school CRT monitor.

The gameplay is fast and aggressive. You can tackle opponents into the electrified fences, charge up 'Super Shots' that look like they came out of an anime, and generally ignore the laws of physics. The touch controls are surprisingly well-mapped, though it truly shines with a Bluetooth controller. It’s a perfect example of 90s 'extreme' sports design and remains incredibly fun for short, explosive sessions.
