Collector interest

The PAL version of this British platformer, where a football-playing kid travels the world with ball at foot, a title born in Europe and fully at home in the PAL market. Its distinctive concept and thoroughly European character sustain a small band of enthusiasts; the smaller install base and multilingual manual make a complete copy in a clean box rarer than its modest reputation suggests, a pleasing niche catch for well-kept PAL collections.

Is Soccer Kid still worth playing in 2026?

An original Ocean platformer, Soccer Kid blends Sonic style progression with the handling of a football used as both weapon and tool to solve the levels. The hero travels through several countries in search of the pieces of a cup, across colourful, well animated settings. The ball control, demanding but rewarding, gives the title a real identity. The uneven difficulty slightly slows the fun. An inventive platformer to recommend for fans of original 16 bit games and the curious about European production.
