Hockey League Simulator 2 (HLS2)[1] is a 1992 ice hockey-themed sports game from Bethesda Softworks. The game is fully compatible with Wayne Gretzky Hockey 3.[3][4]
Hockey League Simulator 2 features gameplay from an executive's perspective, allowing the player to draft a team and organize its schedule, and hire or fire the coach.[3] As the general manager of a team, the player has the ability to trade players and send them down or back up from the minors.[2] The player can become involved in preseason negotiations to draft hockey players.[2] The player can create custom leagues that can use game played in Wayne Gretzky Hockey 3 as well as fantasy or rotisserie leagues.[1]
The player uses detailed menus to access commands for all of the different options.[5] The player is able to manipulate and change player statistics, financial statistics, and performance statistics.[4] This game included an 'injury prone' option so that players could set the level of injuries during a season.[2]
The player can switch back and forth between viewing the final scores after playing games, to watching a period-by-period recap of the scoring.[1] The player can replay an entire season in a single sitting.[1] The player can play through each game of the season using either Wayne Gretzky Hockey III or with a quick simulation mode.[3]
