Before I starting time the review itself, permit me starting time past maxim that I'm function of the potentially large grouping that started liking water ice hockey on their youth due to the Mighty Ducks trilogy. Yes, I'm ane of those. And yes, you lot tin imagine which squad I'm playing alongside correct now, the Mighty Ducks.
That said, hither goes the review.
Gameplay
There's non much to say, considering it's a direction game. Being from a good known developer, generally known for the Football Manager (FM) series, you lot tin await to notice only about FM similarities. Any water ice hockey fan, alongside an involvement for managament games, volition savor the game too volition nearly sure enough pass hundreds of hours playing it.
The gameplay is only you'd await from a managament game, allowing you lot to fix tactics, practice, too accept attention of the team's transactions. You'll too live able to lose yourself alongside all the statistics avaiable, trying to notice that alter that volition allow you lot to tweak your tactic. But don't mean for a moment you lot tin only select hold of all the large guns too ram your mode through! You tin too sentinel for prospects too train them, too thus you lot tin after purpose them to win the cup, or only purpose them every bit a bargaining chip.
It's your game, your team, your choice. Until you lot acquire fired.
Pros
Plenty details;
Good trading too compact system, considering the AI doesn't scam you, or lets you lot scam them;
Quick booting too load/save system;
Has a overnice issue of leagues, too hopefully to a greater extent than volition live added soon;
The fit engine is quite good, too entertaining, alongside a few nipper problems (see cons section);
Good tactical interface, alongside a lot of options that tin brand or pause your streak.
Considering it's Early Access, too they're opened up to suggestions, too too considering past the terminate of its EA country volition live nearly probable live every bit polished every bit the FM serial appears to be, I'll trim back my cons to what I've plant inwards the actual game too thus far.
Cons
Sometimes the players flip out a fleck on the 2D engine, too either only halt for a pair second, or during penalties too faceoffs they only ram into each other until they notice a mode to become to their spot, too thus the play tin start;
UI could live a tad fleck better, every bit somethings are harder to find;
To withdraw an offering after all the parties hold accepted you've to correct click the player's mention too manually withdraw it, every bit there's no "Cancel" selection on the word screen, only a corroborate option.
Verdict
I'd turn over it a 9/10 considering it's EA condition too the serial long hiatus. Tons of potential.
