Russia to Release Magic Number Eleven Board Game with Promo Cards of Domestic Football Players

Thanks to Choo Choo Games publishing house, players from Russia will be able to enjoy the football board game Magic Number Eleven and its expansion. The publisher also plans to create separate promo cards in honor of Soviet and Russian football players.

Choo Choo Games publishing house announced its plans to localize the Magic Number Eleven board game, designed for two players and rated 7.4 out of 10 on BoardGameGeek.

This project will turn participants into coaches. They will be able to assemble a team, set up player interactions, and find balance. A successful formation will give players synergy cards, attack, control over the game's tempo, but the right card at the right moment is like a free kick in the 90th minute: there's a chance, but no guarantees.

The concept is quite simple: when you take a shot, you calculate your attack power against the opponent's defense. If the sum is exactly 11, the player is guaranteed to score a goal, and no defense can save it.

Those who have already played this project are unanimous: Magic Number Eleven is a game that conveys the tension of a football match (that very moment before a shot when even the air thickens).

Choo Choo Games will bring the base game with an expansion. Goalkeeper promo cards will be a pre-order bonus. In addition, the publisher's staff will release separate promo cards in honor of Soviet and Russian football players.
