It is what it says it is. I did not want to KO my daughter so I did not try my actual stick. The VR stick works like you would expect it to. The puck is a little too light imo making fancy dribbling impossible but shooting feels good. I day dream about a fully fleshed VR hockey game every day of my life. I really hope this is a step in that direction. If EA is the roadblock let me know and I will get a petition signed and harass the NHL every day until they give up exclusivity.

worst $4 in my life. YOU CANT EVEN MOVE!
It's super cool being able to clap the puck in vr but the game is very barebones basically just taking shots on a goalie or target from a stationary position. If you were able to actually play a 5v5 it would be so much fun I'm sure we will get a game like that one day though.
Love this game. Would be even better if you guys added gametime situations with an NHL atmosphere. I think it's every hockey player's dream to score a goal in the NHL and this it would be awesome to have a game where we can do it and it feeling realistic just like this game.
Well, so far its been pretty unfortunate. I was really hyped after finding it, ordered the stick attachment, and for now have gaff taped it to my stick, calibration was weird as apparently the floor of boundary zone is not as low as humanly possible (had to face it circle facing flat on the floor to get it low enough) or the puck was just under my stick. After firing it up, theres seemingly no way to reset your starting point so it was putting my shooting circle right at the edge of my space, okay, whatever. The shooting mechanic just doesn't quite work properly, the puck is pretty awkward to move and it is seemingly impossible to shoot the puck hard or lift it, or at least in the motion that you would do it in real life. Maybe a fun gimmick for someone who has literally never played hockey but thus far its seemingly not much more than that. I'll certainly update my review if by some circumstance the attachment that i've prematurely ordered improves anything, but that baby is on that s...
Cool little VR-game with great and realistic puck movement and controlling. Great feeling to try to hit the targets or beat the goalie. And cool with that organ ditties sometimes.
