Notice the feedback
Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention. Refer to the controls when needed.
Your goal
Score at least three of five penalties. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Follow this game’s rules rather than another version’s.
Step by step
- Aim inside the goal.
- Shoot away from the moving keeper.
- A save or outside shot misses.
- Finish all five.
Controls
Pointer/touch, aim buttons and Shoot. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. A new-round button replaces the current round.
A useful example
An edge target may beat the keeper but must stay within the posts. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Notice the change in the playing area.
Watch out for this
The keeper reacts after the shot, so aim matters. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use.
