Puppet Hockey

Grab a friend, slam the puck, and send those puppet limbs flying across the ice in this gloriously chaotic two-player showdown.

Puppet Hockey drops you and a buddy on a pint-sized rink with two wobbly, string-limbed skaters who clearly skipped practice. Arrows or WASD move your puppet, and F (or a tap on touch screens) swings the stick. First to sink the puck wins the round—but the real win is watching your opponent's ragdoll faceplant after a missed check. The physics are where this game lives. Your puppet doesn't glide like a pro; it stumbles, oversteers, and occasionally flails like a marionette in a wind tunnel. That looseness isn't a flaw—it's the whole point. When you time a stick swing just as the puck drifts across the crease, there's a solid thwack and the puck rockets off the boards, sometimes bouncing behind the goalie for a cheap-but-hilarious goal. I kept coming back because no two rallies feel the same. If you're alone, the CPU puts up a decent fight, but the real chaos needs a second human on the couch. Touch controls make it a sneaky-good mobile time killer too. Expect a lot of accidental own goals, dramatic slow-motion near misses, and at least one moment where you both stop to laugh at a puppet tangled in the net. It's dumb in the best way.

arrows and F, touch screen

Time your F hit just as the puck crosses your stick's sweet spot for the hardest, most satisfying shot. On touch devices, slide your thumb toward the puck instead of tapping frantically—it gives you more control. Stay near center after shooting so a blocked shot doesn't leave your goal wide open. Use the boards to bank the puck around a defender who's crowding your shooting lane. If playing alone, practice against the CPU to learn how the goalie reacts to low corner shots. Don't chase the puck into the corners; let your opponent overcommit, then counter down the middle.
