With the option for 1 or 2 pucks, this 1 and 2-player air hockey favorite is a blast for young & old alike! This is the only air hockey that lets you play with 2 pucks at once!
If you're alone, play a computer opponent ranging from Kiddie to INSANE! Get a friend and grab your mallets to see who dominates the table in 2-player mode. Try off the wall banks & combos to spoil your opponent's defenses and be the first to score 7 points – just like in real air hockey!
You'll play with easy to control mallets that aren't too big or small and a puck that rockets across the table. The goals are sized to perfectly balance rapid game play and the challenge of the game. Advanced physics and air hockey sounds make the game act and sound like you're playing on a real table!

This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon.
It's Air Hockey's 10 year anniversary!! Millions of thanks to our millions of players! Here's what's new in versions 1.21 – 1.21.2:
- iPhone X support. This adds a new Air Hockey table size to fill the iPhone X's screen. It looks awesome! The new aspect ratio of the iPhone also means that wireless multiplayer games on the iPhone X will no longer work with iPhones other than the iPhone X.
- Added "Play Again" button on the iPhone build so that you don't have to go through the menu again after playing a game.
- GDPR update
- Fixed a problem that could cause a crash on startup for devices running iOS 9.
- Fixed a menu bug that caused some players' games to not start properly after upgrading.

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Air Hockey was our favorite game when we were little.
Great fast paced game to keep your reflexes sharp.
This is still the best, most classic air hockey app in the store. Classic style, play and sound. Im addicted! Developers dont change a thing. They say if its not broke dont fix it. And this one isnt broken. Love it.
Fun to play, authentic action. One thing, it is way too easy to pause gameplay and that is annoying.
Amazing how it seems to improve your hand and eye coordination while having fun playing a game.
Love coming back again and again.
We enjoy playing and the physics seem accurate.
This is the best are hockey game we have ever played! If we hade to pick which game to play this would play we would pick this one.
Out of all the air hockey games, this one is, by far, the best. The movement of the puck & the sounds are totally true to the original game. Takes us right back to the first one our sis won in a contest for her paper route in the 70s.
Download it. Play it. You're welcome.
This game is the best we have ever played. It is feels very realistic and very challenging.
Ive enjoyed this for years with our family and friends.
Nice brain candy. Really cool with two pucks. The computer opponent gives you a good chance to win.
No bells and whistles, unnecessary options, settings or BS, the way a game should be played.
Im addicted. This App is a must have! Just like the real game. You must try it on the iPad pro. Feels great on that large screen! Big thank you to the development team. We used to own a full size Air Hockey table and was bummed because we didnt always have another player when we wanted to play. This brings back those great memories and we always have someone else to play! Another thanks to the developers. Awesome work. We wouldnt change a thing.
Best application for hockey in the store.. Keep going to update and good luck.
So entertaining, exciting, and challenging.
Simple yet a lot of fun! Two players mode even more fun.
Well worth the extra buck. Best game we ever downloaded.
Really enjoying the this virtual air hockey game. The ability to have a computer makes it more enjoyable and fun.
It was the best game we have experienced in our life – at least as far as iPhone air hockey games go.
It's fun!! 5 stars we love this game YAAAAYYYYAAAAYY.
Air hockey is awesome kids love it we love it.
This game brings back memories of late night air hockey in college.
It would be nice to have the option of no score and continuous gameplay in stead of having to start a new game every time we win…besides that we love your game :) ive tried every air hockey app in the store and this one is by far the most touch responsive controls of any other ive played :).
This is a great distraction when needed. Well worth the price. We also like that each game only takes a minute or two. Being color blind, however, we wish we could change the background color to a darker color and keep it there.
Love this game. Imagine playing your worst frenemy.
Great game love the interaction even with one player.
This is a great game – problem is we have an iphone 13 pro, and if our finger touches the edge of the screen by accident, which will happen when the pug is near the bottom, it causes the game to pause, or for the phone screen to shrink in half – it can be problematic and spoils the game.
We love playing this game with people (on one phone). It brings people together. However, we bought it to play with our boyfriend (using both of our phones), and our iphones don't pair together. It's not a bluetooth issue, just compatibility. The developer should note that possibility.
The game is nice, just like the big game. Exciting and thrilling, get rid of the adds, it will be perfect.
Im too good at this game so it only gets 4.
One of those mindless games good for killing time while at the airport etc.
Im a former hockey music announcer mom who is setting up an iPad for our 84 year old mom. We think shell love this game! We have an air hockey game table at home and this has the exact sound of the pucks hitting the boards. The sounds its missing are some throbbing hockey music! Enter Sandman, Du Hast, some AC/DC, Final Countdown, etc. Music to put you and the competition in the right mood to play hockey.
We play it when we have nothing to do. It is fun but you get bored after 10mins.
Awesome fun, just like the real thing! Lotza fun.
Excellent representation of the air hockey experience.
This is an addictive game, which in our opinion is mainly worth playing in insane mode. It would be worth 5 stars game, if not for the developers attitude, who has not fixed any issues reported, while pretending to care. Last reported update was several years ago Apple support isnt helpful either. The leaderboards color scheme on an iPad makes scores illegible and the time a score was achieved is missing. Also, the leaderboards contain fake scores (you physically cannot win this game in less than 10 seconds unless you are a machine).

Ever since the home button has been removed from the iphone you cant play this game because all the swiping up, sliding right garbage interrupts the game play w/the amazing app switching technology we are so blessed to be a part of.
Please if u found a hacker to program insane noob please make u do it so it is not as hard!!! A year later, Please make a impossible insane noob update, because we have Beat insane noob 4 times and today we have beaten him three times so please make an impossible insane noob update P.S. Please think of changing all the different modes to say noob at the end. PLEASE!!! We AM BEGGING YOU!!! PLEASE TAKE IT INTO CONSIDERATION WE MADE IT A 5 STAR REVIEW YOU ARE A STAR.
Kudos to devs, this runs smoothly on our iPhone 8 w/ iOS 11.1. Good fun! #RECOMMENDED.
We give the developer props. Its a nice, fun and simple game.
We recommend this game for anyone looking for a real air hockey experience. We use it on an iPad Pro 12.9".
Thanks developers for updating our beloved table hockey game.
Great spit and polish without losing the things that made this feel like legitimate air hockey. Back in heavy rotation on our phone.
Big ups to the developers for providing an update to a game that came out a long time ago. Not only that, but they included a detailed log of what they did instead of a generic bug fix log that a lot of people do. Finally, the game is not unnecessarily bloated like a lot of today's apps. This is the way it should be done.
The best ever. Just buy it! You won't regret it.
The live two player version didn't work the first couple of times we tried to pair, but once it did, awesome. And the one player version is great too.
