I have designed this hockey game after several years of frustration playing a wide variety of mail order purchased hockey games (i.e. Strat-o-matic, Faceoff). While I have enjoyed playing these games, I wanted a game without those time wasting and confusing line changes, a game that had a wide variety of easy to create seasons, but also a game that was fun, fast and realistic. I know that I have accomplished the fun part and the game is certainly realistic, but only after several games when the game player becomes totally familiar with all of the game mechanics will it be fast playing with the real feel and flow of hockey.
