Backyard Hockey is back in 2005 with a fresh roster of NHL kids and brand-new 3D gameplay. This year, you can draft from 30 backyard players and 14 NHL Stars. You can also design custom players that grow stronger as they gain experience. All 30 NHL teams are featured, along with fan-favorite backyard squads from previous versions. The game offers three modes: Quick Play, Season Play, and Exhibition. Matches can be played on nine unique rinks, including Sharkbelly Shores, Ice Castle Arcade, and various street hockey locations. As you advance, you'll unlock hidden NHL players, rinks, and bonus music. The game tracks player and team statistics throughout the season. Plus, a fun Air Hockey Mini-Game is included as a bonus.
