About Volleyball! Neftyanik: 1-on-1 Matches from the Russian Volleyball Championship

Volleyball! Neftyanik is the first game built around a team from the Russian Volleyball Championship, bringing that competitive spirit into a 1-on-1 arcade format. Matches run to 25 points and follow the three-touch rule straight from real volleyball, but the head-to-head setup gives every rally a sharp, personal edge. With 15 characters to collect — each carrying distinct values for speed, height, and jump — the roster gives returning players a steady reason to keep competing.

In one scene, a yellow and blue sphere hangs above a character's head in an arena divided by a central white vertical barrier. Rows of colored pixel-like shapes fill the stands behind the play area in that same view.

How to Play Volleyball! Neftyanik

Every match goes to 25 points, and only 3 touches per side are allowed before the ball must cross the net — just as in the real sport. The contest is always 1 on 1. At the start, 5 characters are available; the remaining 10 must be unlocked with coins earned by winning matches. Each character differs in speed, height, and jump, so the choice of who to field carries real weight. On desktop, two players may compete against each other locally.
