Screenshots
Yuki and Rina Football is a free Android game with a football theme in a manga style. Yuki and Rina are the two characters you will control in this game developed by Playtouch, and your objective is to dribble opponents coming toward you by sliding left and right. Along the way, you’ll pick up power-ups to help you reach the end of the level.
If you love football, you can also try PES 2012 for a more realistic experience or FUTBIN if you play FIFA and want to manage your ultimate team.
Graphics and sounds
Yuki and Rina Football offers a colourful world inspired by mangas and will undoubtedly remind you of Captain Tsubasa or Inazuma Eleven for its fantasist approach to football. All the characters have distinct looks and will yell catchphrases during gameplay accompanied by an upbeat theme.
Gameplay
The game offers straightforward gameplay; swipe left or right to dodge incoming opponents and obstacles. If you smash into an obstacle, the game stops, and you lose. The first meters are easy, but it gets tricky because you control both characters at the same time, and it progressively goes faster.
Power-ups
When you run, you can collect medals and trophies, which reward you with points. These points can be used in between two games to improve your skills. You can buy as many as you want if you have enough points, and they will appear randomly during your next game.
For instance, the energy drink lets you run faster and skip several opponents automatically to get out of tricky situations. You can also collect magic gloves, flaming shoes and a mega jump.
Fun football-themed runner game
Yuki and Rina Football isn’t revolutionary, but it offers a fun runner game with straightforward gameplay, which is rare when it comes to football games. The game twists the rules a little by making you control two characters instead of one.
The power-ups will help you get a higher score when you collect enough points to buy them, and its anime-style atmosphere sets it apart from other football titles.
