But there are some ways to make it better. It would be awesome if there was a harder hitting mechanic like in retro bowl where you have to hold down the hit button and the hit gets stronger. With this there could be the opportunity of injury’s in the game and players on your team and the opponents could be out and need to recover. But this is a great game I highly recommend!! ### 5/5 — Very Good Game *2026-07-19, version 1.06* If your looking for a energetic indie game then you’ve found it. It’s very fun and fast paced. The only problem is how short career mode is for free and how hard being a goalie is. If a shot gauge could be implemented for career goalie it would be very helpful. But overall it’s very very fun ### 4/5 — Калибр *2026-07-16* Выиграть не возможно а так для развлечения круто добавьте ещё чтобы можно было на два игрока поиграть ### 5/5 — PLZ UPDATE *2026-07-13, version 1.06* I I’m a huge Florida panthers fan and there is just so much more teams you neeed to add so adding like the Florida jaguars and Utah tusks maybe like the Dallas suns since all the teams are spin offs. So far this is my favorite game and just a team update would make it 1000x better. I also recommend adding custom logos so you can like add an image to the game but then the game pixels it to 8 bits or sumthin. If you are reading this thank you plz update I love u byeeeeeee ### 5/5 — Terrible *2026-07-03, version 1.06* Terrible would not let me. Continue after I made a career ### 4/5 — Pretty good 8.6/10 *2026-06-30, version 1.06* Almost every single time it’s tied they have to score another goal and it’s very annoying ### 1/5 — I want a refund *2026-06-24, version 1.06* I bought the premium but now it won’t let me refund it ### 3/5 — A few problems *2026-06-24, version 1.06* It is a very fun game but the controls are confusing and you have to pay for premium to play career and making a league. It is just annoying but it lets you play 1 full season on career mode. A few Places that have a team in the NHL don’t even have a team in the game. Also the NHL team name is not right. ### 5/5 — It was amazing and fun to use *2026-06-24* It was not fun. The career mode is especially fun. I’d recommend the career mode. ### 5/5 — My favorite team is Seattle *2026-06-19, version 1.06* My favorite team is the Seattle captains cause when I start the season, they always win first ## Frequently asked questions about Ice League Hockey ### What is Ice League Hockey?
