World Hockey Manager 2026

**I had a team that I had made a lot of progress with, and had even spent a few bucks on. Now when I launch the app it just says “Create” or “Login”. Problem is, this game never made me create an account. I don’t have anything to login with and now all I can do is create a new team. It’s like I never created a team... My progress has been completely lost.** The above issue was fixed after I contacted support. They were able to provide me with credentials for my account. It’s odd that the game doesn’t ask you to create an account when you first make your team, but I’m sure this will be fixed in the future. This game is pretty fun for a sports management game. I mainly play it because it’s a hockey game. I don’t think there is any competition for this game atm. The management aspects are fun. Tasks take real time to complete. You can pay money to progress faster by buying card packs. Some cards make tasks take less time. You can also sign plenty of good players if you spend money for gold. The actual games are hands off. There’s nothing you can do but watch the score/events during game. But the management aspects including setting your strategy, your lines, managing contracts, and upgrading buildings are fun enough to keep me playing.

A player gets injured just about every game. One of the tips says that playing with low energy increases the likelihood of injuries. I always play with nearly 100% or full energy, and just about 2 out of 3 games there is a player who gets injured for 7 days. It’s impossible to train and improve players if they’re constantly injured. No realistic hockey game would allow half of your roster to be hurt within the span of a week, but currently I have 7 injured players, and I’ve used injury cards to heal another 4 or 5, gone and signed new players to replace injured ones in the meantime, and now the new players are getting hurt! It’s a joke. If the injury situation isn’t resolved in the next update I will be giving this game up for sure. Also, you can’t play the game for more than 5 minutes without losing connection (and I’m always connected to reliable WiFi). Inconsistent results, I just tried to play a challenge game, closed and opened the app 4 different times, and still when I hit PLAY it will not let me play a challenge game. It’s just not going. Kinda annoying that I have full energy, would like to play a game, and cannot. It’s like the more you try to play this game, the more it screws you. Definitely will not be spending a cent on it until it improves, and if it doesn’t get updated soon I’m just deleting it before my whole roster is on the injured list.

Finally a good hockey managing game! Everything about the core of this game is good, the fact that it doesn’t demand that you be playing all the time or you’ll get dinged, that you can just set your roster and train your players and let it do its thing till the next day. It has a perfect balance of managing to controlling and not going overboard with things to manage or things to play. Some small things I would change however are; make instruction a little more clear. What I mean by this is tell a little more about what certain numbers mean or how to do something. For example it took me a while to figure how to modify my lines and I still don’t know what the numbers by my players mean at the end of the game. I also wish I could go and somehow read through all the tips that it shows as the game is starting as they seem very helpful but I seem to miss them often. On top of this I wish there was more telling what the certain strategies do and how to ideally set them up according to your team and the team you’re playing. Finally, I wish coins were a little more available or cash was more scarce. I always seem to have the cash to do things but never the coins, maybe just my play style, maybe this is by design, I’m not sure. Other than that, great game, hats off to you guys.
