The gameplay involves using the D-pad and buttons to move your players, pass, shoot, and tackle, with a variety of offensive and defensive strategies to employ. A unique feature is the "Dini" gameplay – the game is known for its responsive controls, fast-paced action, and realistic ball physics, which were a hallmark of Dino Dini's soccer games. The game includes a tournament mode where you compete for the championship, and a two-player mode for head-to-head competition.

The graphics are colorful and detailed, with a top-down view of the pitch and well-rendered player sprites, and the animations are smooth and responsive. The music is upbeat and energetic, with a sports-style theme and catchy tunes. Critics praised the responsive controls, the realistic ball physics, and the overall fun and engaging gameplay, making it a solid soccer game for the SNES. It supports two players. Dino Dini's Soccer is a fun and engaging soccer game that offers a great sporting experience.
