onlinegamesbrowser.comHow to play
Both players defend a goal and control a mallet in their own half. Score by sending the puck into the opposite goal. The red center line is a border you can't cross.
- Set the Mode: against the computer, or two people. Against the computer, set the Level: Easy, Normal or Hard.
- Under First to, choose 3, 5 or 7 goals.
- Press Start, or Space.
- Every goal scores a point, and the player who conceded serves next.
- First to the target score takes the match.
Controls
- Touch: put a finger on the blue mallet and slide it. With two people, each controls a mallet in their own half at the same time.
- Mouse or keys: the blue mallet follows your mouse, or the arrow keys, while a second player on red uses W A S D.
- Space serves up a new game, including right after a match ends.
- Pause: the button stops play.
Tips
- Keep your mallet between the puck and your net. Defending well wins more matches than shooting hard.
- Bank shots off the side walls are harder to stop than straight ones.
- Swing through the puck. The faster your mallet is moving, the faster the puck flies.
- After every shot, recover to a defensive spot immediately.
FAQ
Can we play head to head on a phone?
Yes. Switch to 2 players, set the phone on the table between you, and each of you drags a mallet in your own half, blue at the bottom and red at the top.
What are the computer levels like?
Easy reacts slowly and leaves gaps. Normal handles most direct shots. Hard is quick and shoots at your goal on purpose, so angled shots off the walls are your best weapon.
How do two players share a keyboard?
Split the keys: red plays with W, A, S and D, and blue uses the arrows or the mouse.
Can I play air hockey at school?
Air hockey runs in an ordinary browser tab with nothing to install, so a school Chromebook can play it. Whether the page opens on a school network is the school's call, and if it is blocked there, only the IT team can change that.
