Make the controls familiar
Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart. Notice the feedback after each input.
Your goal
Score at least three of five penalties. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Review the board or playing area as it changes.
Step by step
- Aim inside the goal.
- Shoot away from the moving keeper.
- A save or outside shot misses.
- Finish all five.
Controls
Pointer/touch, aim buttons and Shoot. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Use one clear input at a time.
A useful example
An edge target may beat the keeper but must stay within the posts. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Check the stated objective.
Watch out for this
The keeper reacts after the shot, so aim matters. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board.
