As expected, Royal Academy proceeds to trounce Raimon, but they unexpectedly concede the match, preventing the Raimon soccer team from disbanding. Mark and his rag tag of less enthusiastic players are pushed into a match against the best team in the league, Royal Academy, a team whose introduction bears resemblance to the appearance of Darth Vader, soccer troops lining up like soldiers next to the red carpet. Mark has an enthusiasm for soccer, but for some reason, it appears that the school superiors at Raimon are bent on shutting the team down. In this game, players take on the role of Mark, a boy who is obsessed with soccer.

The recent indie game scene has plenty of interesting concepts, but Japan is definitely still king in that regard.Įnter Inazuma Eleven, a game that mashes together two of Japan’s favorite things: Role-playing games and soccer. Games like Katamari Damacy, in which the player controls a prince of the cosmos who rolls up literally anything he can into a ball to create celestial bodies, are just the tip of the ice berg. Japan is home to some of the wackiest, most unique video games ever made.
