Counted from the reviewers’ own thumbs up/down on the 75 English Steam reviews we collected, not by the AI. Valve’s all-language rating: Very Positive (86 of 102 positive).

Players praise the game as a fun, arcade-style hockey party game with a surprising amount of content. [1][2][3] Some reviewers note the online multiplayer suffers from a small player base and lack of matchmaking. [4][5][6] A few players find the game more like a platformer or beat 'em up than a traditional hockey simulation. [1][7][8]

    The game started off well and I played through the entire story in order to unlock all the playable characters for online play. This took me approximately 3-3.5 hours to complete.

    This is exactly what would happen if Nintendo would create a Super Mario hockey game. It's goofy, cartoony, fun to play, family-friendly and it's filled with hockey puns and jokes. The story mode is super surprising so far, this is not just hockey games, it feels more like a Beat 'Em Up with hockey elements. I love it.

    Not gone too far into this yet but the gameplay is really unique. Can't really think of anything to compare it too but having a blast with it so far. The storyline is humorous with plenty of character and I am really enjoying how the story blends the hockey mechanics with platformer like gameplay. Looking forward to getting further into the story and playing some online matches. Defintely worth a try!

    Tunnel Goons from @n8hps.bsky.social is such a good game system for art based zines because it focus on collecting items without the need to stats such items. So everything you draw become a useful thing to collect and is covered by the game system. And you can draw tons of monsters too.

    What's up fellow gooners? Goons: Legends & Mayhem is a game about gooning with your friends, or without your friends, on the ice with some legends and mayhem. This is a great way to stay up all night gooning or even for a cheeky morning goon sesh. Goons comes with an extensive single player adventure for those lone wolf gooners and has plenty of cosmetics and items to get into for those long-time gooners who want more long term replayability in their sports games.

    Friend and I played through the tutorial and did some of the story mode separately. Overall I thought the story was neat but short according to other reviews (about 3ish hours to unlock) and while the custom games we played were fun at first it got a bit repetitive quite quickly. We turned to try some online match making only to be met with a nearly nonexistent player base.

    The game isn't worth the price if you are looking to PVP online. I was excited to see an ability based hockey game but matches are hard to find, there is no match maker, and maps/heroes are very limited (2 maps). Controls are a bit funky but something to build off of. The launch of the game is just brutal... I have zero interest in the campaign mode or pve path of the game. Things I want to see at a 16 dollar target. Match maker, more characters, much better tutorial (way shorter, dont make…

It's really fun, gameplay is super smooth, but it lacks some of the features that kept me wanting to keep playing 3on3. Pros - - If you don't care about the below, buy this game it's super fun and plays fantastic. Everything else is great.

    I must admit I do not care at all about hockey, but that game is amazing. I haven't played much yet, but it's a lot of fun, and I can't wait to play it with friends. The fluidity of the skating is really cool, and just doing that and throwing pucks in the faces of other people and my surroundings would be enough to recommend it. I'll be back to update my review after trying more stuff.

    Get Tape to Tape instead. That's more of an actual hockey game, where this game is more like Mario 64 with a hockey skin. At least that's what I gather from playing through the tutorial. Tried playing online as soon as that was unlocked, zero games to be found. Sadly I bought the key elsewhere or I would refund. Meh. Edit: Gave it another 30 minutes or so, and ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ is this some trash. I mean it's not just a bad hockey game, because it actually isn't one, it's just absolute garbage in…

    Really enjoyed the story. It was like a short Kirby game but with hockey. The dialogue was well thought out and even pretty funny at times. The hockey is not bad but, is it great? No. It has pvp and that increases the quality significantly. Have not convinced any friends to play yet but sure it would be fun. PSA Goon was a hockey term long before the degenerates got a hold of it.

    This is too much of a game than what I really desire. I was hoping for something a little more focused on online PvP play instead of a story mode. The game looks brilliant and has lots to offer for those to enjoy cinematics and dialogue from what I could see in the tutorial. Actual game play was enjoyable but ultimately this isn't quite the game my friends and I were hoping for.

    Intro / Tutorial is well thought out but too long. That said, poor UI choices - hold A to progress through slides that take a quarter second to take in, while you can just skip over a wall of dialog with a press. Ultimately, after the interminable intro, when you can finally play some multiplayer the game just isn't fun. Go play Tape to Tape.

I've played a good portion of the solo campaign and a few rounds of VS locally and I reckon a younger audience would love this intently. I suspect the local multiplayer would be amazingly frantic fun if we could get a 2v2 or 3v3 in person so I will definitely be putting that into rotation. I just wish that…

I've never played any sort of hockey party game before, but this was loads of fun. I feel like the ability and dash you get in the game adds so much, as well as the different characters. Initially, I found it really difficult to score, and it became a bit frustrating. Then I decided to practice in a local lobby with no…
