Alien Soccer is a very strange game. It's a little like pinball, with a ball bouncing around among a collection of rather passive aliens off which it veers and plunges into the goal mouth.

Not many games are this boring to play, so it's interesting in its way. The sound effects are quite nice, particularly the clicks and buzzes.

If this is the way aliens play soccer, how come they are so aggressive in other fields? There is no sharp attacking play, in fact no movement at all. Hardly the hyperactive laser-toting killers that we know and love.
