SOCCERBORG: A Robotic Soccer Game from TOMY
Have any little soccer fans in your house? I’ve got a game for you that is sure to be a hit with them: Soccerborg! We received a complimentary set to review, and we’re delighted to share our experience with you today.
Soccerborg is a new game from TOMY where the players go head to head using remote controlled robots. Like real soccer players, these robots can dribble, tackle, pass, and shoot the ball for a winning goal. It’s super fun for both kids and adults, so it’s a great way for the family to play together.
In the box, you get 2 robots with dribble poles, 2 remotes, 2 goals, 2 balls, and a sticker sheet. Setting everything up is a breeze: snap on the dribble attachments, apply stickers, insert batteries, pair the robots with the remotes, and have fun. There are basic stickers for each robot, but they also give you some extras so you can customize them. My kids loved using the stickers to create their own teams.
It took me a while to master controlling the robots, but both of my kids took to it almost immediately. Luckily for me, the included instructions provide tips on how to use the remote’s buttons and triggers to attack, defend, and kick.
The kids have been having a ball (couldn’t resist the pun!) pitting their teams against one another in some intense RC robot soccer games. Their fun hasn’t been limited to soccer either. They’ve used the robots to race, do tricks, and play games that they’ve invented themselves. I just love watching them be creative!
One thing I should mention is that Soccerborg requires 10 AAA batteries–two for each remote and three for each robot. For some reason, they recommend not using rechargeable batteries, so you’ll want to make sure you have plenty of fresh, regular batteries on hand.
Whether you’re a family of soccer fans or just appreciate engaging toys that you can all enjoy together, Soccerborg won’t disappoint! Visit Tomy to learn more and Amazon to purchase your own Soccerborg game.
