    Loads of fun. [Sept 2011, p.93]

    It's a casual, easy to pick up and play hockey game that has a surprising amount of depth and skill hidden inside of it for those willing to give it the time.

    I wish someone would figure a way to make a truly great full fledged hockey game for mobile, but for now this will hold many of us hockey fans over. If you like hockey (of the ice variety), then I would advise checking this game out.

    Good-looking and instantly accessible, Icebreaker Hockey will be another smash hit for NaturalMotion.

    A fun, fast-paced, challenging title. Anyone with a penchant for Stanley Cup viewing should definitely check it out. Even if you're not a sports fan, Icebreaker Hockey is worth a look for the different take on sports game it delivers.

    Despite a change of setting, Icebreaker Hockey fails to step out of the comfort zone of its predecessors; this is disappointing for a sport famous for its hard hits.

    Follows the footsteps of both Backbreaker Football and Backbreaker Football II with a fun and addictive gameplay, great animations, and great character models. The UI and other graphical elements do need some work, and the GameCenter needs a bit of fixing up to do.

    Icebreaker Hockey will knock you on your butt, but you'll get right back up and keep playing.

    The visuals are quite stunning. The 3D environment is extremely detailed from the cheering crowd down to the reflections off the ice. Everything flows very smoothly with precise control of your player and accurate skating animations.

    It's certainly one of the best looking sports games on iOS and well worth investing some time in. I only wish NaturalMotion would work on providing a full match version of the sport with proper team against team play.
