Also known as Keith Van Eron's Pro Soccer (that one was published by MicroPlay, a MicroProse label). MicroProse Pro Soccer is a decent conversion of Sensible Software's C64 classic MicroProse Soccer. The conversion was done by Designer Software. At its time, MicroProse Soccer was one of the best soccer games around with great gameplay, various play modes and the choice of indoor and outdoor games. The action is viewed from a top-down view with much bigger sprites than used from Kick Off, the other classic game of that time. However, as usual the PC version can't really keep up with the C64 classic both in gameplay and fun. This game should be played with a joystick as the keyboard controls aren't top-notch.
Overall, a marginally above average soccer game that could have been better.

This game is very good !! 5 stars for sure !!! Its gameplay is TWICE BETTER than the much overrated kick off and kick off 2... The trick for scoring goals is to run and shot diagonally (with a little curve). If you pick Italy and be lucky to avoid strong teams like Brazil, Argentina and Soviet Union, then you can go all the way and win the World Cup Tournament :)
Canada hasn't been in a World Cup tournament since this time period.Canada just couldn't beat Brazil.Go Canada Go!
