The Game

FOOTBALL LIKE YOU'VE NEVER PLAYED IT BEFORE.

Step into a packed stadium during football's golden age. A time of mud, magic, fierce rivalries, and unforgettable players. No distractions. No gimmicks. Just pure football.

WHEN IT WAS ALL ABOUT THE PLAYERS, THE PASSION, AND THE CROWD'S ROAR.

The success of our 2025 Kickstarter campaign allowed us to bring Back of the Goal to life — a multiplayer board game for football fans and board gamers who don't want to manage the action from the sidelines. They want to play.

Move around the board and trigger different football actions. Roll the dice and unleash bicycle kicks, overheads, nutmegs and sombreros. Bend in a free kick like a set-piece specialist. Save a penalty like a legendary keeper.

And when the moment comes… YES! Put it in the Back of the Goal.

Published in English and Italian, with digital rulebooks available in 5+ languages.
