The NES game Ice Hockey, or "Ice Hockey", is a hockey simulation game developed exclusively for the NES in 1988 in the US and released in Japan the same year.

For example, the number of players on the team is reduced: instead of the proper six there are only five, although the movement of spectators in the stands is implemented. In addition, the rules have been simplified, there are no penalty points for violations, but it is possible to remove a player from the field for fighting.
The rules have been simplified.
