Overview
Paper Soccer (or Paper Football) is a pencil-and-paper strategy game where players draw lines on a grid to move a ball toward the opponent's goal. The unique bouncing mechanic - continuing your turn when hitting used paths - creates exciting chain moves.
History
Paper Soccer has been a popular pencil-and-paper game in Europe (especially Poland) since the mid-20th century. It requires no special equipment and offers deep strategic play.
