Puppet Hockey - Sixty Seconds to Own the Ice
Puppet Hockey is a casual arcade hockey game that turns a full team sport into a quick one-on-one match on the ice. Choose a national team and control a big-headed cartoon hockey player as you skate across the rink, jump for the puck, and swing your stick toward the opposing goal. Your opponent is controlled by the computer, leaving you responsible for both attacking and defending throughout the 60-second match. Push forward when you have a clear scoring chance, but stay ready to retreat when possession changes, a loose puck or sudden rebound can put your own goal under pressure within seconds..
Core Game Mission
Because each side has only one active player, there is very little separation between attack and defense. A shot that rebounds off the opponent can immediately travel back toward your own goal, and moving too far forward leaves nobody behind to stop it.
Jumping is useful for reaching high pucks and interfering with shots. Your stick handles the actual shot, while horizontal movement lets you chase loose pucks or retreat toward the net. The clock creates another layer of pressure. You have 60 seconds to finish ahead. If the scores are level at the end of regulation, the game adds a 20-second overtime period.
Take Control of Your Puppet
PC
- Left Arrow: Move backward.
- Right Arrow: Move forward.
- Up Arrow: Jump.
- J: Shoot.
Mobile
- Left-side Buttons: Move forward or backward.
- Right-side Buttons: Jump and shoot.
Three Situations Worth Learning
- When the puck is near your goal: Stay between it and the net instead of immediately chasing forward. Your body and jump can help interrupt the shot.
- When the puck rebounds: React before resetting your position. A rebound can become either a second shot for you or an instant counterattack for the opponent.
- When you have a clear opening: Shoot rather than carrying the puck too far. With such a small rink, open space disappears quickly.
Puppet Hockey compresses hockey into one minute of rebounds, quick shots, and constant switches between scorer and goalkeeper.
