About the game
What you do in a play session
In this game, you take on the role of a true coach, deciding your players' lines, adjusting tactics between being more aggressive on offense or focusing on defense, and even managing each player's ice time. The depth is so great that number lovers will go wild: you can record everything from the number of shots on goal per period, the exact time of goals, assists, and much more. It's like having a living statistics spreadsheet on your game table!
To keep the experience always fresh and challenging, Strat-O-Matic Hockey works by acquiring specific team cards for each season. This means if you want to play with the rosters and statistical performances of more recent years, you'll need to purchase the corresponding card packs. This ensures that every game you play has that authentic flavor, reflecting the real performance of athletes and teams. It's the perfect choice for anyone looking for a faithful and detailed simulation of ice hockey, without giving up the excitement of every play.
