Mutant League Hockey
Encyclopedia : M : MU : MUT : Mutant League Hockey
Mutant League Hockey was the sequel to Electronic Arts' Mutant League Football. It featured many of the same teams and players but new ones as well.
The first game featured five species of mutant, which Hockey narrowed to three: robots, skeletons and trolls. The game is identical in tone to its predecessor, with special plays that can cause things to happen like making the puck explode when it is picked up by an opposing player, bribing the referee to call fake penalties against the other team, and land mines and holes on the ice.
The teams in the game are ranked by a rating of zero through six skulls.
As with Mutant League Football, hazards litter the ice and death is commonplace. Players may substitute their goalie for a demon goal, a gigantic demon head that takes the place of the net; scoring on a demon goal causes it to explode. In addition, the crowd is prone to throwing weapons or other powerups onto the ice; they may be picked up and used freely. When a player dies, their corpse remains on the ice and may be tripped on; between periods, a giant slug acting as a zamboni eats the debris littering the ice. As in real Hockey, fights may break out. Fights in MLH are done as a minigame, where the objective is to knock out the opponent Both players are still sent to the penalty box, but the player who got knocked out also takes an additional penalty for losing.
