Penalty Challenge is a soccer shootout game by Code This Lab. The player alternates between taking penalties and controlling the goalkeeper, so winning requires both accurate shooting and good defensive guesses. Each attempt is short, but the changing roles prevent the game from becoming only an aiming exercise.
What Is Penalty Challenge?
A shot is controlled with a mouse or touch gesture that sets its direction and power. Goalkeeping uses a similar quick input to choose where the keeper should move. The challenge comes from varying placement: repeatedly aiming for the same corner becomes predictable, while excessive power can reduce accuracy.

How to Play Penalty Challenge
When shooting, swipe or drag toward the intended part of the goal. Use a controlled gesture rather than maximum force, and aim away from the goalkeeper's starting position. When defending, watch the approach but accept that some saves require anticipation.
Spread shots across high, low, left, and right targets instead of establishing a fixed pattern. As goalkeeper, change the chosen direction between attempts. A balanced result across both roles matters more than scoring one spectacular penalty.
