Play Hit the Ice on GB Online

Hit the Ice on Game Boy is basically hockey on caffeine—no strategy, no rules, just pure arcade madness. You pick a team (they all feel the same, honestly), and suddenly you're slamming opponents into the boards and firing shots so fast the goalie might as well not exist. The controls are stupid simple—pass, shoot, and check—but somehow that’s all it needs.

It’s got that same ridiculous energy as NBA Jam, just with more ice and fewer dunks. The pixelated players move like they’ve had three cups of coffee, and the puck zips around like it’s allergic to possession. Don’t go in expecting realism—this is the kind of game where you’ll win 12-11 and half the goals will be pure nonsense. Perfect for killing 10 minutes between bus stops or pretending you’re back in 1992.

If you miss when sports games didn’t take themselves seriously, this one’s a time machine in cartridge form.
