Playbook-based AI makes each team skate to its real-life tactics — from trapping defense to aggressive attack. Five game modes include Exhibition, Season, Playoffs, Practice, and Shoot-Out. Create players, customize rosters, and earn bonuses to improve coaching, player development, and injury recovery. With variable player sizes and jersey-name rendering, it’s a sharp sim with arcade punch.
