Five A Side simulates small-squad indoor soccer action. You may play head-to-head, or against the CPU. The game is two five-minute halves (cannot be changed) between a blue squad and a yellow/red squad (which, the Anirog version tells us, may be the “Dynamos” and the “Rangers.”) Rules enforcement is pretty light–no offsides, no fouls for contact with the goalie, etc. Drone AI can be pretty lamentable–your striker will sometimes simply run away from the play, leaving you all alone. Strategic World Cup-grade action, this is not.
Fouls can be earned for really egregious tripping fouls (typically tackling a player away from the ball will do it, but you can get rung up while playing the ball as well). A minor foul results in a kickoff by the aggrieved team. It is even possible to start a fight after a foul–a quick punching fest on the pitch. Fighting results in a penalty kick
for both teams.
