Free Kick (NS6201-A 1987.9) — About this game
Free Kick (NS6201-A 1987.9) turns its football pitch into a rebound game. The paddle at the bottom sends a ball through the players ahead rather than controlling a conventional team match. Opposing footballers can kick it back, changing its return direction, while targets farther up the pitch must be cleared. Judging those changing rebounds is as important as keeping the paddle beneath the ball.
