"Pup Champs: Adorable Football Puzzler Launches on iOS, Android Soon"

Get ready to experience a delightful twist on the football genre with Pup Champs, an upcoming release that's set to charm iOS and Android users alike. Launching on May 19th, this game combines the cuteness of adorable pups with the excitement of football, but with a unique twist—it's not a sports simulator, but a puzzle game!

In Pup Champs, your challenge is to skillfully maneuver your team of lovable dogs across the field, making strategic passes and crosses to score goals while avoiding tackles from the opposing team. The game is designed to be accessible for all, so even if you're not familiar with the intricacies of football, such as the offside rule, you can still enjoy and succeed in these matches.

Adding to the charm, Pup Champs comes with its own heartwarming story. You'll step into the shoes of a retired soccer coach, guiding a team of young pups on their journey to become amateur football champions. This 'underdog story' (as coined by the developers) adds an engaging narrative to the gameplay.

**Take a dive** into the world of Pup Champs, which will debut as a free-to-start title with an initial offering of 20 puzzles to kickstart your journey. While the mix of pups and football might seem like a natural fit given events like the Puppy and Kitten Bowl, Pup Champs stands out by focusing on puzzle-solving rather than sports simulation.

Don't let the cute exterior fool you; developer Afterburn brings substantial gameplay to the table, having previously worked on critically acclaimed titles such as Railbound, Golf Peaks, and Pulsar. This ensures that Pup Champs isn't just about style but also boasts a strong gameplay foundation.
