### 4/5 — Good game

*2022-10-29, version 1.6*

It’s a fun game and I never even played befor

### 5/5 — Just like I remember.

*2021-11-07, version 1.6*

Played the board game during my teens. The app captures the essence of the game and brings back old memories. I think the only way to make it better would be a multiplayer option.

### 2/5 — I bought the game way back and still get ads

*2019-10-20*

Why am I getting ads when I paid for the game like 7 years ago, it doesn’t get updated forever. When it finally does (literally 5 years later) and I get ads now

### 5/5 — Heck of a lot of fun on ice!

*2019-08-17, version 1.5*

Quick and fun rousing hockey theme as you manage and play your team through the season and, hopefully, the playoffs!

### 3/5 — Needs a few simple features

*2016-03-25*

As usual, this digital card game is void of LIFETIME stats. It stores stats for a very short 9 game season. But why not track LIFETIME stats for things like total seasons played, games played, wins, losses, goals for, goals against. 

And add a FULL season with as many games as in the real NHL? Why only 9 games? Thats ridiculous. 

In the season standings view, where it also shows player stats, HIGHLIGHT THE PLAYERS ON MY TEAM!

C'mon folks, it's a digital rendition of the card game. Make use of the features digital games make available, like more stat tracking, highlighting team specific players, more games per season.

### 5/5 — Memories

*2014-01-01*

This is a fantastic app that is just like the board game. My friends and I wore the game out. I wish all the funky rule changes we made could be added like - 1. Tiny Tim not only scored on all goaltenders but checked all defensemen. 2. If a player was rated 3 over the goaltender he came up against he scored. 3. Le goon not only knocked out the player he was up against but also the next player as well. Thank you Columbia games for making this game.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2013-01-31*

Grew up playing the card game and love playing this addition. Only thing missing is some of the players like Guy Whiz, Iron Orr, and Slap Happy. Love to see them added in a future update.

### 4/5 — Great

*2012-09-21*

All this game needs is multiplayer through gamecenter.

### 3/5 — Its Ok...but not that original...

*2012-09-13*

Slapshot is a fun little hockey card game.  The object is to win your "war-like" card games to get to the playoffs to win overall.  With constant changes of drafting free-agent players and some trading involved, you hockey card team is ever-changing.  Also, the intangible aspect of the "bruiser" card is also a very nice feature.  The developers have used wacky player names and there is some nice artwork for what the cards are all about. (is there an expansion card update on the horizon?)  A small company Whitewind games published this actual card game and had the backing of Alan Moon way back when, originally called Phantoms of the Ice.  It is basically the same game...and now I can play it electronically. The one flaw that I seem to discover is ..there is no "save" mechanism.  If you in the middle of a season and have to turn off and try to come back, you have to start all over again....This ..I hope can get fixed..hence only my 3 star rating.  ULtra Marroons

### 5/5 — Excellent version of the board game

*2012-08-25*

Lots of fun to play
