Face Off! is a hockey video game developed by Mindspan Technologies and published by Gamestar in 1989. The game's features include not only the ability to play with your chosen hockey player, but also game plans, team maneuvers and management.

Gameplay

Goal camera

The game offers play in single-player mode, with two humans in cooperative mode or in versus mode. The player can control only one hockey player at a time, and cannot change this unless play is interrupted. The player can choose to play with 1, 3 or 5 players on each team.

The aspects which made this game famous were the change of camera angle if the hockey player shoots and is close to the goaltender, and the mini-fights during the match that sometimes occurs when a player commits a foul on an opponent.
