  3. Daily challenge

    new every day

    One drill per day, the same for everyone. Only your first attempt counts.

    Invite friends with a link – play against each other or together against the CPU, with full teams.

  6. Minigames

    a few minutes

    Flick Hockey, shootout, duel and fight: one round in a few minutes.

  7. Training

    getting started

    A tutorial in short lessons, free skate and game situations like a 2-on-1 rush, power play or faceoffs – repeat any of them at the press of a button.

Shootout: the shooter skates in alone on the goalie, who makes the save.

TV on, phones out

The TV shows the game, up to four phones are the controllers. No app, no account – just scan a QR code.

Game on the TV: side view across the whole rink, both teams in the attacking zone.
Phone held sideways as a controller (German labels): space for the thumb stick on the left, big buttons for check, poke, pass and shot on the right, “Connected – Player 1” at the top.

  1. Open play.faceoff27.de on the TV

    Go to play.faceoff27.de in the TV’s browser. A big QR code appears.

  2. Scan the QR code

    Scan it with the phone camera and tap the link. Up to four phones, each gets a player number.

  3. Hold sideways and play

    Thumb stick on the left; pass, shoot and check on the right. One phone plays the CPU, two play against each other or together, four play two on two. The AI plays the rest of each team.
