Flick Goal Game

Flick Goal is a free kick puzzle game: you're not playing a full match, just one set piece after another against a wall, a goalkeeper, and whatever the level throws in between. Each shot is its own little problem to solve — spot the gap, work out how much curve you need to bend it around a defender or a rotating barrier, and let go at the right moment.

The pace comes from how much control one drag gives you. A short, sharp flick sends a low, powerful strike; a slower, sweeping drag bends the ball wide before curling it back on target. Later levels lean into that by adding moving goalposts, spinning fences, and goalkeepers who actually react to your aim, so the same shot that worked two levels ago won't always get you through. Coins and keys scattered around the target area reward a cleaner or more stylish shot, and clearing worlds unlocks new balls and player looks.

Controls

Click and hold on the ball, drag to set the direction and curve, then release to shoot — the same motion works as a tap-and-swipe on touchscreens.

Tips

• Speed of the drag matters as much as direction — quick flicks add power, slower sweeps add curve.
• Watch the goalkeeper before you commit to a line; a straight shot into their reach is an easy save.
• Going for coins and keys off to the side is worth it, but only once you're confident you can still bend the shot back on target.

It suits short sessions — one puzzle at a time rather than a long match — and works equally well with mouse or touch.
