Despelote review: miraculous slice-of-life soccer game pulls a hat trick
Despelote is an autobiographical and sumptuously rendered slice-of-life game that shoots for gold and handily gets there.
I reviewed Despelote, which is at once the smallest game and also the biggest thing in the world. It's a towering achievement and something that will live with me for the rest of my days. My rave for Digital Trends: www.digitaltrends.com/gaming/despe...
