Following phenomenally frightful survival horror game Darkwood, Polish team Acid Wizard Studio are now making... a football game? They've just released a free public alpha for Soccer Kids, inviting everyone to try their turn-based tactical footie game starring schoolkids in 90s Poland.

Come watch the trailer.

Surprise! We've just released a free early version of our next game - Soccer Kids! Play it now for free and let us know what you think. We're looking for your feedback!

This game is way different from what we've done before and I'm sure you will have many questions. We'll be doing a Ask Us Anything session on Reddit later this week to answer them so stay tuned!
