User Reviews about Backyard Hockey

My son, 6, loves the game. His age was not an issue understanding the game and most of it's options. He has a great time with it. -- Back Yard Hockey

We were late getting into the Nintendo DS thing. I personally dislike video games. My son is a hockey player and when he found out there was such a game, he had to have it. Especially because it has a Martin Brodeur player. He loves this game. They first few hours he had it, he had already made it to the Stanley Cup. It would entertain him for days on end if I would let him, but I keep it to an hour maximum. He would rate it a AAA+ -- My son loves it!

I purchased this product as a gift for my grandson. If he isn't playing it his little sister is. They both love it and it will bring countless hours of fun for both of them. The product was received in excellent condition and in a timely matter. I would order from this company anytime. Both the product and the seller receive excellent reviews. -- backyard hockey
