🕹️ New release: Lunar Lander Beyond

Shufflepuck Cafe

Moby ID: 3507

You are the galaxy's most successful Krypton-3 salesman. Your Space Transporter breaks down on the way home. You coast off the space highway and free wheel into a very sinister neighbourhood. The only sign of life is from a run down building across the street. You enter the room to find several pairs of hostile eyes, and a few sets of three, glaring at you. You're trapped! The only things between you and the phone, which you can use to call for assistance, are a few 'friendly' games of Shufflepuck, eight galactic misfits and an obsolete droid. You can't walk out of this dive, until you've played the entire gang of intergalactic misfits. Lose and you earn their contempt. Win and earn their resentment! Relax, what could be easier. Shufflepuck is perfect for everyone.

"Hey you! Howzabout a friendly little game of Shufflepuck?"

Well, maybe not so friendly.

You've stumbled into the galaxy's last den of air hockey enthusiasts. And these goons take their Shufflepuck seriously.

If you lose, you'll deserve their contempt.

If you win, you'll earn their resentment.

But what choice do you have? It's clear you're now walking out of this dive until you've played the entire gang of intergalactic misfits. It could be the sports massacre of the 25th century.

Okay, you Brillian barflys, you're on. And may the best Shufflepucker win!

** Nine different opponents, each with a unique personality and style of play. Some of them even talk back to you!

  • First player to score 15 points wins (the barroom droid keeps score).

  • At last, an arcade game that's perfect for everyone. It's so easy to play... but so hard to beat.*

"Hey, wie wär's mit 'em netten Spielchen SHUFFLEPUCK?"

Nun ja, vielleicht nicht ganz so nett. Sie sind mehr oder weniger freiwillig zu diesen Enthusiasten des Air Hockey Spiels geraten. Und diese Typen nehmen ihr Spiel verdammt ernst.
Wenn Sie verlieren, können Sie sich der Verachtung aller sicher sein.
Wenn Sie gewinnen, werden sich einige ganz schon ärgern.
Aber was für eine Wahl bleibt Ihnen? Sie können nicht abhauen, bevor Sie gegen die komplette Gang dieser galaktischen Freaks gespielt haben. Es könnte durchaus sein, daß Sie das Sport-Massaker des 25. Jahrhunderts am eigenen Leib miterleben.
Also, auf geht's - und möge der beste Shufflepuck Spieler gewinnen.

▬►Neun verschiedene Gegner - alle mit eigenen Charaktereigenschaften. Spielstärken und Schwächen

▬►Der erste Spieler, der 15 Punkte erreicht, gewinnt. Der Robot-Barkeeper spielt Schiedsrichter und verwaltet die Punkte.

▬►Das perfekte Arcade-Spiel fur alle - einfach zu spielen... aber schwierig zu gewinnen.
