Overview

International Soccer is a soccer videogame for Commodore 64. It can be played by two players or one player against an AI opponent. Each team can select one of a number of colored shirts, and the AI opponent is graded into 9 different difficulty levels. The game itself is a relatively simple game of football - there is no offside rule and no possibility to foul opponents.

Each game is divided into two 200-second halves. There are no overtimes or shootouts. There are also six colors a person can choose from for play: red, yellow, blue, grey, white, and orange. The winning team is presented a gold trophy after the game by a girl in a blue dress and red ball in her hand.

Normally, the game is shown on color, but the game also has a grayscale mode that is more suited for black-and-white television sets.

Reception

International Soccer was well received, gaining a Certificate of Merit in the category of "1984 Best Computer Sports Game" at the 5th annual Arkie Awards. InfoWorld described International Soccer as a "minimasterpiece" and "surprisingly good, considering it's published by Commodore", praising gameplay and especially its animation. Ahoy! wrote that International Soccer "is a pure action game, but, oh, what action!", praising the graphics and gameplay.
