Something is hunting beneath the rink.
At first, it follows the puck.
Then the players.
Then it breaks through.
UNDER THE ICE is a short solo journaling RPG about hockey, dread, and trying to finish the game while something impossible hunts from below.
Play through three periods while tracking the score, the noise your game creates, and the thing beneath the ice. Goals, hits, fights, and collisions draw it closer until the rink itself starts to come apart.

Fast 3-period structure
Escalating supernatural threat
Multiple endings
Optional 2–3 player co-op mode
Extra tables and alternate modes
