1.On the opening game screen, use the Select button to choose a 1-player or 2-player game. Press the Start button to make your choice. Then use the Select button to choose a skill level, Pro or All Star (All Star is more difficult). If you choose Pro, you will have 18 real seconds to score; if you choose All Star, you will have 12 real seconds to score. Press the Start button to begin the game.

2.The players skate onto the ice. Player 1 controls the red Home Team and they are on offense. Player 2 controls the blue Visiting Team and they are on defense. Notice that the player that has possession of the puck and the player blocking the puck holder are a darker shade of red and blue. As the puck is passed to different teammates, the color of the players changes, with the darker shades indicating who is in control of the puck.

3.How to Play Offense: One defensive player and a goalie are always trying to block your offense. Pass the puck quickly between your 5 offensive players and try to create scoring opportunities. Press the A or B button to pass or shoot the puck.

4.How to Play Defense: Use the left and right sides of the directional disc to move your defensive player to 1 of 7 possible positions. Push the A or B buttons to move the goalie left and right.

5.There are 3 simulated 20 minute periods. Each team is awarded 1 point for every goal scored. The team with the most points at the end of the 3rd period wins.
