How to play Field Goal
Field Goal is a kicking game. The ball sits on the tee, the posts wait at the far end, and the wind is blowing. Swipe up to kick: a longer swipe is a stronger kick, and the angle of your swipe aims the ball. A green band beside the ball shows how much power reaches the posts without sailing over the top.
Every kick is different. The distance grows from short chip kicks to long bombs, the ball moves further to the side of the field, and the wind picks up, with gusts in the air. Watch the flag and the arrows, aim into the wind and let it bring the ball back between the uprights. A ball that clips the inside of an upright still counts; one that hits the outside or the crossbar from below is no good.
A good kick scores points for the distance, a bonus for the wind and for dead centre kicks, and a multiplier for every three good kicks in a row. Three misses end the game, six in a row win a strike back. Earn coins to unlock new balls, and watch an optional video for a wind-corrected aim line or an extra strike. Your best score is saved on your device.

FAQ
How do I aim and set the power?
Swipe up anywhere. The angle of the swipe aims the ball and its length sets the power. The green band beside the ball shows the power that clears the bar and stays under the top of the posts.
Which way does the wind push?
The flag and the arrows at the top point the way the wind blows. A wind to the right pushes the ball right, so aim a little to the left. Long kicks drift more.
What counts as a good kick?
The ball has to pass over the crossbar and between the uprights, and not above the top of them. A ball that only clips the inside of an upright still counts.
What do coins and the videos do?
Coins unlock new balls (looks only). An optional video shows the wind-corrected flight line for one kick, gives one extra strike after the last one, or doubles the coins of a game.
Is Field Goal free?
Yes. It is free to play in your browser, with no download and no account.
Can I play on my phone?
Yes. It runs on phones, tablets and computers. Swipe up anywhere on the screen to kick. A longer swipe is stronger, a tilted swipe aims left or right. The pause button is at the top right.
