Turbo League brings Rocket League's popular auto-soccer formula to mobile devices, but this quirky new genre handles a bit differently with touch controls. You may want to throw yourself in headfirst in multiplayer mode, pulling sweet stunts as the in-game camera records every move. You'll be surprised to find that getting ahead in the game is a bit trickier than that, though. The controls are touchier, and there are a few things that set Turbo League apart from its obvious inspiration. Use this guide to ease yourself in, frustration-free.


Opt for the solo modes at first
Avoid multiplayer at first if you're a beginner. Sure, it's not exactly a great way to show off, but just think of how you'll compare to the competition with a bit of practice under your belt. Playing the solo modes familiarizes you with the game and helps you perfect your technique. In fact, the game has a free-play practice mode so you can jump around, practice steering, and more without any time constraints or pressure.

Be gentle with the controls
Big stunts are fun, but oftentimes the best way to land a goal is with careful tapping and, if you must, disciplined jumps. If you're more worried about having fun, though, then by all means feel free to go all out. You just might not get many goals that way.


Change the camera settings
The default camera angle is pretty atrocious, often following the ball rather than your car or your opponents. This can make it very hard to play for seconds at a time. Change the camera angle settings by clicking on the camera in the top right corner of the screen. You can shuffle through a few different options to find the one that suits you best. It's a small thing, but will have a huge impact on your gameplay.

Turbo League can feel a bit wonky at first blush, but if you're truly dedicated to the game, a bit of practice and tweaking will really improve things. Keep these tips in mind before you take to the turf.
