Mini Hockey Champ!
This game goes back to the old days of NHL Open Ice Challenge and NHL Hitz. Straight up fun hockey game. Comparing this to Old Time Hockey (Bush Hockey League) and it just will not, cannot compare to this gem.
The game is easy to pick up, being a NHL Hitz fan i found an exploit for easy goals as you had to with Midway games, and this game has that same feel. One on one with the way you change lines is VERY refreshing especially with arcade hockey games. The atmosphere is fantastic as well. Overall great game.

Do I recommend? yes! what this game lacks in graphics or even content it makes up in gameplay. The puck physics and the ice skating controls are amazing! You’ll be glued to your pc for hours, no need to even like Ice Hockey. At first the keeper may seem to defend everything but you’ll get there like I did, one of my current favorite games.

Hockey VR
It is what it says it is. I did not want to KO my daughter so I did not try my actual stick. The VR stick works like you would expect it to. The puck is a little too light imo making fancy dribbling impossible but shooting feels good. I day dream about a fully fleshed VR hockey game every day of my life. I really hope this is a step in that direction. If EA is the roadblock let me know and I will get a petition signed and harass the NHL every day until they give up exclusivity.

Well, so far its been pretty unfortunate. I was really hyped after finding it, ordered the stick attachment, and for now have gaff taped it to my stick, calibration was weird as apparently the floor of boundary zone is not as low as humanly possible (had to face it circle facing flat on the floor to get it low enough) or the puck was just under my stick. After firing it up, theres seemingly no way to reset your starting point so it was putting my shooting circle right at the edge of my space, okay, whatever. The shooting mechanic just doesn’t quite work properly, the puck is pretty awkward to move and it is seemingly impossible to shoot the puck hard or lift it, or at least in the motion that you would do it in real life. Maybe a fun gimmick for someone who has literally never played hockey but thus far its seemingly not much more than that. I’ll certainly update my review if by some circumstance the attachment that i’ve prematurely ordered improves anything, but that baby is on that stick snug and exactly in the format of the setup/video.

Slapshot: Rebound
Slapshot: Rebound has got to be one of my all-time favorite video games. Growing up on the NHL series for console, Slapshot: Rebound is a refreshing take on computer hockey video games that hasn’t been done in quite some time. This physics based, arcade-like game is so perfectly intertwined into what the game of Hockey is truly about, that Slapshot: Rebound is a MUST HAVE for any Hockey fan, or sports fan alike. AND ITS FREE!!
The Pros:
- FREE TO PLAY. This small 3-man Dev team has made this game free to play for EVERYONE. How awesome??

Slapshot: Rebound is an intense 3v3 multiplayer physics hockey game. It’s skill heavy game where you control every aspect of your character from, movements, stick handling to customization. It’s a one-of-a-kind game, filled with original mechanics and fast-paced gameplay. The controls are easy to pick up for new players. After the tutorial, you can hop in a custom game with your friends and start slapping. Lack of skill doesn’t make the game less enjoyable. At that point., every good pass, shot, or play will be exciting. If you play against people your level, even the smallest achievements seem big.

This game really needs an infinite life option. The checkpoints are un-charitable enough that it’d still be a challenging experience, and one that’d be less frustrating. Also I have no idea how to get past level 2.
