Game need a overhaul, almost unplayable next to tape to tape or super blood hockey. Controls are garbage, need to be able to bind keys or at least have a list of their controls. Changed setting reverts back every time i play. I returned it, not worth full price at this point. they need to remove zoom, useless and messes up gameplay.9 found this helpful
[Updated Review - 12/16/25] Developer has been incredibly responsive and has fixed many of the game-breaking issues we previously experienced. Most of the major concerns have been addressed, though there are still a few minor bug fixes and quality of life changes I'd love to see. I'm confident that this game will get the polish it deserves, and if you have any nostalgia for retro hockey games (or just like hockey or sports in general) I would strongly suggest you give this a try. It's fun, easy to pick up, and has a nice blend of casual and skill play.2 found this helpful

Absolute blast of a game. The art style feels retro while the gameplay is smooth and modern. Banger soundtrack too.1 found this helpful
