在Steam玩够100个解谜游戏(59) 个人评价:2.5档(优秀) 终于,制作组在这次的游戏中进步不小,不再像轨道连结那样后期非要靠过度的穷举来过关,踢足球加上一点轻度的战棋设计让游戏的闯关乐趣提升了很多,当然难度曲线也依旧没让人失望,到了第三世界你就会开始感受到制作组那高超的温水煮青蛙功底了
Adorable
かわいい世界観の歯ごたえありのサッカーパズルゲームです。 ある大会で優勝を取った犬のコーチが子犬のサッカー少年たちを導いていく、そんなストーリーになります。 いいところ ・ギミックが豊富 4人のサッカー少年たちはそれぞれ異なる弾道でボールを蹴ります。 彼らの特性をいかして、ゴールにシュートを決めていきましょう。 また、どの向きでボールを受け取るか、誰でゴールを決めるかなどを念頭に置いて解いていくことになります。 ヒント機能がアップデートで追加されましたのでどうしても分からない様なら見ることも可能です。 誰にでもオススメできる万人向けのパズルゲームだと思います。 ぜひ、このゲームを体験してみてください。

特别特别可爱又精美的解谜游戏!关卡的设计很精妙,而且提示系统对我这样笨笨的搞怪🐷妞也很友好!
狗狗真可爱啊
O jogo engana os vídeos, ele parece um jogo de turnos, mas não é assim, ele é um jogo de quebra cabeça, até aí tudo bem eu gosto de jogos assim, mas esse é um jogo preguiçoso, você não consegue resolver os puzzles usando sua estratégia ou criando alternativas, você só consegue resolver de apenas uma forma, como o desenvolvedor do jogo programou no fim fica um jogo de erro e acerto de como foi programado e não como resolver de forma criativa, infelizmente já passou o tempo não posso pedir reembolso, toda a interface parece um jogo de celular, eu não recomendo horrível o jogo paguei 15 reais paguei caro de graça e caro.
the game is very simple and fun, i recommend you all to buy it
cute little puzzle game
Pup Champs is a delightful puzzle experience that takes the familiar excitement of soccer and reimagines it as a clever tactical challenge. Developed and published by Afterburn, the game focuses on thoughtful planning rather than quick reflexes, creating an experience that feels both relaxing and mentally engaging. Its premise is simple: guide a team of energetic puppies through a series of soccer-themed puzzles by arranging players, planning passes, and finding the perfect route to score goals. While the concept sounds straightforward, the game quickly reveals an impressive level of depth beneath its adorable presentation. The heart of the experience lies in its puzzle design. Every level presents a unique scenario that requires players to think several moves ahead. Instead of controlling athletes in real time, players analyze the field and determine the best sequence of actions to overcome obstacles and reach the goal. Success depends on understanding positioning, timing, and the interaction between different elements on the field. The game continuously introduces new mechanics that prevent the formula from becoming repetitive, ensuring that each set of puzzles feels fresh and rewarding. One of the most impressive aspects of Pup Champs is the variety found throughout its campaign. New environmental hazards, special interactions, and creative twists constantly challenge players to rethink their strategies. Some levels emphasize precise positioning, while others require careful manipulation of the environment. These additions are introduced at a steady pace, allowing players to learn naturally before being tested with more demanding challenges. This gradual progression makes the game approachable for newcomers while still providing satisfying complexity for experienced puzzle enthusiasts. Visually, the game embraces a colorful and inviting art style that perfectly complements its lighthearted tone. The puppy characters are full of personality, and the environments are designed with clarity and charm. The cheerful presentation helps make even difficult puzzles feel welcoming rather than intimidating. Animations are expressive, and the overall atmosphere creates a sense of warmth that is consistent throughout the adventure. It is easy to become attached to the canine cast as they stumble, learn, and improve together as a team. The narrative adds another layer of appeal. Players step into the role of a retired coach helping a group of enthusiastic but inexperienced pups find their footing on the soccer field. Through illustrated story segments, the game explores themes of friendship, cooperation, determination, and personal growth. The storytelling remains simple and family-friendly, yet it succeeds in giving context to the puzzles and making progression feel meaningful. Rather than serving as a distraction, the story enhances the overall experience by providing emotional motivation for the team's journey. Accessibility is another strong point. The early stages do an excellent job of teaching core mechanics without overwhelming the player with lengthy explanations. At the same time, optional objectives and increasingly intricate puzzles ensure that skilled players have plenty of opportunities to test their abilities. This balance allows the game to appeal to a wide audience, from casual players looking for a cozy puzzle adventure to dedicated fans seeking challenging brainteasers. The game's only potential drawback is that its soccer theme may initially attract players expecting a more traditional sports title. In reality, Pup Champs is first and foremost a puzzle game. Those looking for fast-paced matches or direct sports simulation may find the slower, more deliberate gameplay different from their expectations. However, players willing to embrace its strategic nature will discover a highly polished and inventive experience that makes excellent use of its unique concept. Pup Champs stands out as a creative fusion of tactical puzzle-solving, heartwarming storytelling, and charming presentation. Its extensive collection of handcrafted challenges, consistent introduction of new ideas, and lovable cast combine to create an experience that remains enjoyable from beginning to end. By transforming soccer into a thoughtful puzzle adventure, Afterburn delivers a game that feels original, accessible, and consistently rewarding. It is an excellent choice for players who enjoy solving clever challenges while spending time in a cheerful and inviting world. Rating: 8/10
