Game Overview

Football Academy on the DS is one of those hidden gems for soccer fans who love the nitty-gritty of team management. You start off picking your squad—some players are surprisingly detailed for a handheld game—and then jump straight into training drills that actually feel like they matter. The controls take a second to get used to (stylus-heavy, of course), but once you do, pulling off a perfect through-ball feels weirdly satisfying.

Matches are quick but tense, and I kept getting sucked into tweaking formations between games. It’s not FIFA-level flashy, but there’s something about the way it balances strategy and arcade-style play that just works. If you’ve got a soft spot for DS-era sports sims, this one’s worth dusting off.
