⚽ How to play Head Soccer (2 players)

By Miguel Arechaga

Head Soccer is a two-player game as simple as it is frantic: each player controls a big-headed footballer, and the goal is to get the ball into the opponent's net. On MundoSudoku you can play it from two phones with a room code, or both on the same device. The first to score 5 goals wins.

Controls

• On desktop: Player 1 moves with A (left) and D (right) and jumps with W. Player 2 uses the keyboard arrow keys.
• On mobile: use the buttons at the bottom: ◀ ▶ to move and ⤒ to jump.
• Each player can only move within their half of the field.

Connecting two phones (create a room)

1. One player presses "🌐 Online 2 players" and then "Create room": a 4-character code appears.
2. The other types that code and presses "Join".
3. Once you're connected, the match starts. The host plays on the left.
4. You can also both play on the same device, each with their own controls.
5. If you'd rather not share a code, use "🔍 Find opponent" to be instantly matched with another available player.
6. You can also add friends by their username from the 👥 Friends panel and challenge them directly with the "Challenge" button next to their name, without leaving the page.

How to score

The ball falls under gravity and bounces off the floor, ceiling, and walls. To score, hit it with your player (with their body or a jumping header) and send it toward the opposing net. The faster you're moving on impact, the more power you give the ball.

Tips to win

• Time your jump: jump right as the ball reaches your head to head it downward and toward the opponent's net.
• Don't stay back: defend your net, but push forward to finish off loose balls in the middle.
• Use your momentum: hitting the ball while running or jumping gives it much more power than hitting it while standing still.
• Anticipate the bounce: the ball bounces predictably; position yourself where it's going to land instead of chasing it.

🏆 Wins ranking

All your online Head Soccer matches are recorded on your account: every win (and every loss) adds to your history. Go to Ranking, the 🎮 2 Players tab, choose "Head Soccer" from the dropdown, and check your position against other players, synced across all your devices. For your result to count you need a free account on MundoSudoku (just a username and password, no email required): you can play without one, but without signing in your score isn't saved to the ranking.
