Copa Placar is a unique and entertaining soccer game with incredible 3D graphics, premiere soundtrack and sound effects, and free, simple and intuitive gameplay, especially designed for iPhone, iPad and Web Browser, providing a fantastic soccer experience.

Besides the several conquests around the game, your main objective is to win the Placar Soccer Cup. Therefore, you must face 5 distinct teams, which become more competitive throughout the competition. Your charts relies on a direct match mode, that is, if you lose one unique match, you must restart all the tournament over again.

The game was completely modeled in 3D, using a very charicatural language, with expressive colors and animations. Various effects like slow motion, ball trail and particles enrich the visual quality of the game.

The lively crowd transforms the whole stadium in a real pothole, participating actively in the game, singing and vibrating to each move or shot, and finally exploding when a team scores the goal!

Its gameplay was designed to get the best of each platform. In case of iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch, the controls are simple and intuitive. Moving the player gives you a freedom of movement of 360 degrees. Also, the characters’ speed varies according to screen touch.

Passes and shots can be performed by means of two virtual buttons – the shot can be loaded to get its maximum power, just by holding down the button, reducing considerably the goalkeeper’s chances to grab the ball.

There are 7 teams for you to choose and each one of them has 4 players, including the goalkeeper. Copa Placar is a very dynamic game; there are no fouls, throw ins or goal kicks. You can use the lateral boards to pass the ball or shoot.

The artificial intelligence is competitive and has 10 difficulty levels that can be set in game’s options. In this manner, the game becomes an interesting challenge, both for casual and hardcore players, offering lots of fun.
