“The game is great especially the changes it looks like they will be eventually doing for campaign 2.0 in the beta, will say that it could probably use a bit longer of a road to really start taking off with synergy…”

“The original game just felt a lot tighter than the new betas, which makes sense since they're trying to pivot a bit. But the actual gameplay on the beta just feels sloppy compared to the main game. The NPC's on your…”

“Been having a blast with this game, just wish there were more campaigns! Overall a really fun, solid game. If you liked the old school 3v3 Arcade NHL games that would come with the game back in the day, you'll like…”
“SUPER FUN! I'm not a sports game fan, but this is the game that, from what I can tell, got me into roguelites. I just wish there was more content, as it feels like the campaign just ends too quickly. Hope more acts/some…”

“About 18 hours in the original game and I love it, crazy amounts of suspensful fun. Not big on the new beta version so far, the goals are a bit too easy.. Can't wait to see further development in this game.”

“Great Game. Funny af, would love to see an only MP. But, NEEDS to improve on how game controls are introduced to the player, or at least have "attack// defense" controller UI, don't really show how to change among…”

“My kids (10 & 8) and I play this together on Easy and have a blast. I play it solo and Veteran and get my ass kicked. Good times. 9/10 for a simple hockey/fun hockey game.”

— a player, Steam review · 25 hrs played“With very little hockey games available, this one scratches the itch. It mixes a little realism with a whole lot of unrealism...but it is fun and that is what counts.”
