Slap Shot is an arcade-style ice hockey game released for the Sega Master System in 1990. Despite sharing its name with the famous 1977 hockey film, this title is its own distinct experience, focusing on fast, top-down action rather than a complex simulation. You can select from multiple international teams and hit the ice in either a quick exhibition match or a full tournament mode to claim the championship.
How to Play
The objective is to outscore your opponent before the clock runs out in fast-paced matches. The Sega Master System controls map easily to your keyboard in the browser:
- Movement: Arrow keys
- Button 1 (Shoot / Check): Z key
- Button 2 (Pass / Switch Player): X key
- Start/Pause: Enter
Tips
- Anticipate the puck: The gameplay is quite fast, so try to intercept passes and cut off angles rather than chasing the puck carrier directly from behind.
- Aggressive defense: Don’t hesitate to use body checks to knock opponents off the puck, as the game leans heavily into its arcade roots without complex penalty rules.
