Developed by Afterburn, the talented team behind hits like Railbound, Golf Peaks, and inbento, this cozy game is crafted with love and humor.

More Strategic Than Your Average Weekend League Team

Step into the role of a retired coach tasked with mentoring a group of endearing, yet somewhat clumsy, puppy players. Your mission? Outwit and outrun your opponents while guiding your team to victory. Unlike traditional sports games, Pup Champs combines strategic gameplay with a series of clever puzzles disguised as football plays. Start with over 30 free puzzles to ease into the game, and unlock the full version for $7.99. For now, enjoy a 33% launch discount until June 2nd, bringing the price down to $5.33.

Once you dive into the full game, you’ll encounter more than 130 unique challenges. The difficulty ramps up gradually, introducing elements like muddy terrain that slows down passes, mischievous monkeys that mirror your moves, and playful bunnies influenced by your actions. It’s quirky, delightful, and surprisingly addictive.

A Game That’s Equal Parts Fun and Heartwarming

At its core, Pup Champs is all about strategy—planning your moves, perfecting your plays, and navigating obstacles with precision. Timing, positioning, and creative thinking are key to guiding your pups to success. But it’s not all about the mechanics; there’s also a heartfelt story woven throughout the game. Presented through interactive motion comics, the narrative explores the evolving bond between the ragtag team and their dedicated coach, filled with touching moments and unexpected charm.
