Gameplay is criticized for its significant shortcomings, including the absence of passing and checking mechanics, as well as ineffective goalie performance. Reviewers note that the overall execution is poor, with gameplay quality reflecting the game's lackluster visuals and effort. Improvements are suggested, particularly in the fighting mechanics.

“I think the one thing that could be improved is the fighting mechanics.”
“Gameplay is on par with the rest of the technical execution, as poor as the lazy visuals are.”
