Hockey is one of the games built-in the Channel F system. It is of course reminiscent of all pong games released on dedicated systems the previous years, but it has interesting options, such as playing time length and game speed. But the most original feature is the ability to rotate the field players clockwise and counter-clockwise on the screen for angle shots!
