About
Despelote is a soccer game about people. Get immersed in the streets and parks of Quito through the eyes and ears of eight year old Julián. Dribble, pass and shoot your soccer ball around town, and see what happens when you kick it someone's way. Feel the city change as Ecuador comes closer than ever to qualifying for the World Cup.
The game consists of three “days,” with each one taking place at a different phase in the player’s life. As you get older, so do the characters in the world around you. Your interactions with them, as well as your relationship to soccer itself, change dramatically with time.
