Pick your team. Watch them play.
Auto Ball is a soccer auto-battler game. Draft a roster of animal characters, arrange them on the pitch, then take your hands off of the controls. Every match plays out entirely on its own, with each animal following fixed movement AI and abilities. All of the strategy happens beforehand with who you buy, who you merge, what they carry, and where they stand.
How a round goes
Shop The shop deals you characters out of a pool shared with every other player in the lobby. Buy three copies of a 1-star character to combine them into 2-star. Combine two 2-star characters to make a 3-star. More stars mean better stats and abilities. Items and synergies make your roster stronger every round.
Place Placement matters. A striker parked in your own goal is slow to the ball. A defender pushed up front leaves the net open. Drag your squad onto the field and build the perfect formation.
Watch Once the whistle blows you can't touch anything. Characters chase, tackle, dash, shield and ignite on their own. Stamina drains, stuns land and knockbacks send players flying, so the match is decided by the team you've built.
Features
Synergies Every character carries traits - Predator, Herd, Arctic, Fire, and more. Stack enough of the same trait and your whole team gets a bonus. Sometimes one more synergy beats one more body on the field.
Strategy Roles matter. A defensive wall, an all-out offense, a balanced split - figure out which shape wins against the lobby you're actually playing.
Shared unit pools Every team shops from the same pool of characters. What you buy is what someone else can't. Reading other players' units matters as much as strategizing your own.
Items Items drop between rounds and merge into stronger versions. Equip one to sharpen what a character already does best.
A growing roster From a sniper mole that tunnels underground to a ball-chasing lion that sets the ball on fire, every character has its own stats, movement AI, and ability.
Live lobbies Play ranked and climb a ladder, join a standard lobby padded with bots, or host a private match with friends. 8-player lobbies run a round-robin tournament - face every opponent once, most points wins. Or just play solo against bots offline.
Async No time for a full lobby? Start a ranked Async run and play it one battle at a time, whenever you like. Every battle is against a team another player built at the same record. Reach 10 wins before 4 losses and climb a ladder of its own.
