About the game

The oddball hockey deckbuilder. Construct your roster, customize your playbook, and survive a season against teams that will do anything to cheat their way to victory. Outsmart your competition, make the playoffs, and hoist the cup in a league where every run is unique.

Original Steam description

Pucked Up is a hockey-inspired, team-focused deckbuilder. Take the reins as GM of the worst team in a league filled with oddball players and staff, then build and guide your squad through a grueling 10-game season. Your ultimate goal? Survive the relentless competition, make the playoffs, and hoist the championship cup.

Draft Your Dream Squad

Between games, recruit from dozens of unique Coaches, Players, and Goalies. Every choice matters—each roster spot brings distinct stats and game-changing abilities that alter how your team performs on the ice.

Featuring

  • Over 100 possible staff options (Players, Coaches, Goalies)

  • 20+ Opponents

  • 60+ "Plays" that can be added to your deck

  • 20+ Upgrade Badges that can be used on your cards

  • 3 deck upgrade types (badges, add a random card, copy a card from your deck) selected randomly between games

Build a Championship Playbook

Your deck is your playbook. Between matchups, fine-tune your strategy by purchasing powerful new cards, recycling the dead weight, and slotting in crucial upgrades. When the puck drops, deploy your playbook each period to give your players the tactical edge they need to blow past the competition.

Cards range from standard Offense and Defense boosts, goalie specific (Wall & Save) buffs, turning off Opponent abilities, adding funds to your team, and much more! 

Adapt or Get Blown Out

No two seasons are the same. Face off against a 10 game schedule full of ruthless opponents, each sporting unique, "cheat-like" abilities that warp the game state. To make the playoffs, you’ll need to scrape together 13 points (2 for a win, 1 for a tie), with each season offering a new set of challenges to overcome.

But beware: the league adapts to you constantly.

  • Play too defensively? Opponents will crank up the pressure and overpower you with raw offense.

  • Go all-out attack? They’ll lock it down and eliminate your scoring lanes.

Your Opponents may be cheating, but you can too!

Can you out-draft, out-play, and out-smart the league? It's go time.

That's Pucked Up!
