Sensible Soccer: European Champions is a soccer game similar to the Kick Off series. The graphical view is from a distance overhead, making the players small on screen, but allowing players to view around half the pitch.
The game's story mode follows your team as you navigate through league and cup competitions, with the option to play customisable leagues and pre-set tournaments including the European Championships. With 168 teams to choose from, you can select from 40 European nations, 64 top club sides, or create your own custom team.
Gameplay focuses on loose control, making running with the ball a skill to master, and putting emphasis on one-touch passing, which can be easily performed by tapping the fire button. As you progress through the game, you'll need to manage your team's strength and strategy to succeed.
