Goons: Legends & Mayhem

Get Tape to Tape instead. That's more of an actual hockey game, where this game is more like Mario 64 with a hockey skin. At least that's what I gather from playing through the tutorial. Tried playing online as soon as that was unlocked, zero games to be found. Sadly I bought the key elsewhere or I would refund. Meh. Edit: Gave it another 30 minutes or so, and ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ is this some trash. I mean it's not just a bad hockey game, because it actually isn't one, it's just absolute garbage in terms of any type of game. Disgusting.

I don't like it. Co-op is just regular matches NOT story mode.

( full review with screenshots: https://www.gaming-parrot.com/post/goons-legends-mayhem-review-less-than-legendary ) Goons: Legends & Mayhem pitches itself as a 3v3 hockey game played against one goalie on half of the rink. The single player mode is supposed to be mostly an extended tutorial so that you learn the mechanics of how to play multiplayer, but then the campaign doesn't ever actually have you do a match that has all of those features. This is a strange game. Most of your time in Goons single player will be spent in combat, for some reason. This most often means skating around lakes and fighting waves of three different enemy types until the game decides you can move on. I think this idea could have worked considering how big of a role fights play in the hockey stereotype, but Goons just doesn't do anywhere near enough with its systems for how often it makes you fight these enemies. Since you can spawn infinite pucks and quick shots automatically aim at the nearest enemy, two of the three enemy types can be easily defeated by just mashing shoot until you win. The third type is immune to quick shots, but too slow to pose any threat, so you can just save it for last and k…

Awesome hockey game and I liked the story as well!

Fun simple game. Doesn’t take long to run thru story at all. Maybe 2hrs max. Works great on steam deck. Glad I bought this on sale, even though I think it’s more around a $10 game full price. Just needs more content

Good Game
