Pup Champs: Adorable Football Puzzler Hits iOS, Android Soon

by Ryan Apr 15,2025

If you're a fan of both adorable pups and football, get ready for an exciting new twist with the upcoming release of Pup Champs on iOS and Android, set to launch on May 19th. This game isn't your typical sports simulator; instead, it's a delightful puzzler that combines strategy and cuteness in equal measure.

In Pup Champs, you'll take on the role of a retired soccer coach guiding a team of lovable dogs to become amateur football champions. The gameplay revolves around navigating your team to score goals through clever passes and crosses, all while avoiding tackles from the opposing team. What's great about this game is its accessibility—even if you're not familiar with football rules like the offside rule, you can still enjoy and succeed in the matches.

The game comes with an endearing underdog story, adding depth to the experience. Pup Champs will be free-to-start, offering 20 initial puzzles to get new players hooked. While the concept of mixing dogs with football might seem like a natural fit in our cuteness-obsessed world, Pup Champs stands out by focusing on puzzle-solving rather than sports simulation.

Developed by Afterburn, the team behind acclaimed games like Railbound, Golf Peaks, and Pulsar, Pup Champs promises both style and substance. This cutesy chic puzzler is not just about looks; it's backed by solid gameplay mechanics that will keep you engaged.
