Bush Hockey League would have been our sports game of the year over playground if it had been released earlier. Almost everything about it is perfect. From the hilarious story, to the colorful retro art style, to the tons of content. Bush League Hockey is a answer to fans of old school hockey dreams. Really takes me back to a lot of those old SNES and Genesis greats, mixed with a fresh look and feel. Bush league Hockey is hard to stop playing. I don't know how many times since I started playing it I've been like Monday Night Football is coming on last game, and found myself playing a few more.

Bush League Hockey throws you right into a 70s style Hockey league like the days of the classic "Slap Shot" movie. From Big mustaches to mullets everything looks great. Fist and Stick fights galore. If you love hockey I really see you loving this game, hell I see a lot that don't love the sport falling in love with this title, and maybe the sport afterwards. The story you take over a last place team, and try to make them win in what is their last season. There are ton of secondary objectives like get in a fight with a certain player or score three goals and these unlock cards.

The music in Bush League Hockey is amazing as well. I love just about every song, and makes scrolling through the options and menus a treat. I really can't say anything bad about this game except there is no online options.That is what you expect from a Indie game though because servers aren't cheap. hopefully they have some success, and it comes in the future love to play a friend or in a online league with my favorite team.

Pros: Amazing Soundtrack

Gnarly Art Style

Bad Ass Story Mode

Play Style really has that awesome retro feel

Tons of content

Cons: No Multiplayer online

Overall: 9.2 One of the best Hockey games in years, a near masterpiece of retro Hockey.
