Freaking Free Kick!
FREAKING FREE KICK!
Football is a beautiful game.
This is not that game.
FREAKING FREE KICK! is a ridiculous free-kick game where the basic idea is simple: aim, give the ball a proper welly, then bend it around the wall after you've kicked it.
Unfortunately, the wall may contain a bloke wearing a saucepan.
And the goalkeeper might be an octopus.
Or a giant baby.
So good luck with that.
โฝ Bend it like an irresponsible adult
Pick your angle, release the shot, then swipe left or right to pour on the CURVE JUICE and make the ball change direction in mid-flight.
Sneak it around the wall. Loop it over their heads. Bend it late enough to fool the keeper. Smash it in off the post and claim you meant it.
The game actively rewards nonsense such as:
- Outrageous bend
- Shaving the wall by millimetres
- Feeble little goals
- First-time finishes
- Scoring off the woodwork
- Smashing it into the postage stamp
๐งฑ Fifteen increasingly stupid levels
Things start reasonably normally.
This does not last.
You will encounter:
Saucepan Steve Big Kev & The Smalls Sir Reginald Pigeon Trouble Breaking News Rubber Duck FC Gale Force Gary Important Phone Call …and eventually Absolute Nonsense.
Expect defenders equipped with saucepans, newspapers, rubber ducks, cardboard, medieval armour and phones.
There is technically still some football happening.
๐งค Meet the goalkeepers
Your opponents include:
- Barry, 14
- The Show-Off
- The Coward
- The Psychic
- The Sleepy Keeper
- The Octopus
- The Giant Baby
Some dive.
Some duck.
Some fall asleep.
One apparently knows what you're going to do before you do.
Very sporting.
๐ Completely sensible match conditions
Certain levels may also introduce:
- Moon gravity
- Gale-force wind
- A ball that keeps getting bigger
- A ball that becomes embarrassingly small
- A ball made of trampoline
- A goal that wanders away
- A pigeon on the pitch
All completely within the laws of the game.*
*Probably.
๐ฆ Unlock deeply unnecessary balls
Spend your hard-earned Nonsense Points on new ball skins, including:
โฝ Ball ๐ Melon ๐ฆ Duck ๐๏ธ Eyeball ๐ชฉ Disco ๐ง Cheese ๐ Meatball ๐ช Planet
Because if you're going to humiliate a goalkeeper, you may as well do it with a flying meatball.
๐ด The pitch is full of things you definitely shouldn't hit
There are achievements for accidentally—or very deliberately—smashing the ball into things such as:
- The dog
- The club donkey mascot
- The hot dog cart
- The referee
- The scoreboard
- The TV camera
- Water bottles
- The corner flag
- A lawn mower
- A blimp
- A pigeon
- The commentary booth
- A portable toilet
Yes, the portable toilet is occupied.
Please try not to think about it.
๐ More nonsense
Alongside the main 15-level campaign, there's also:
Endless Shootout — keep going until football says no.
Daily Challenge — five shots, same challenge for everyone that day.
Achievements — including Mustard Everywhere, Eight Arms, No Hands, Certified Donkey and Nonsense Millionaire.
Ranks — rise from humble Sunday League beginnings all the way to Certified Donkey Legend.
Can you bend it around the wall, fool the keeper and avoid destroying a hot dog cart?
Probably not.
But it'll be funny when you try.
FREAKING FREE KICK!
Kick it. Bend it. Blame the pigeon.
