Actua Ice Hockey

I am an 87 yo father, probably one of the oldest people playing this game. I am a single farther to my Son, who is 55 now. My son got this game for Christmas, so we installed it on his computer and he started playing. By the end of the week he had 24 hours on this game. This was horrible for me, as it was already hard for me to find ways to spend time with my son, as he is always out with his friends or just, watching YouTube. So i decided to make a Steam account and get this game to see if I could maybe play alongside him. loaded into the game, made my character and world and started playing but I was stuck on what you where supposed to do. I asked my Son for help and he hosted a game for me to join. loved it as it was the best time had spent with my Son since my wife had died. This game has ever since brought me and my son closer again and now we actually spend time together outside the house together as well. This game reminded me that there's fun to be had in everything, and it has brought both me and my Son many happy memories

I have low expectations for a hockey game, almost anything will do. It seems there hasn't been a AAA hockey game for the PC since NHL '09. But the combination of the small view space (small portion of ice visible) making passes just hopeful, and the horrible graphics (making it hard to tell which player you're controlling) make this one almost unplayable. There also doesn't seem to be any way to check another player. It's certainly not fun, in fact it's frustrating because I really want it to be okay. It's not.

Gremlin's Actua-series was way ahead if its time... And the only ice-hockey on steam... EA - pls bring at least one NHL to steam.

I would like to recommend Actua Ice Hockey for the family.
