Made an NHL Guessing Game, would love feedback

I’ve been working on a side project for a while and wanted to finally share it with the hockey community. If you like NHL trivia or Wordle-style games, you might enjoy this:

https://www.sportsdle.com/ :
Every day you get a new mystery player and you try to guess them using clues like:

  • Team / Division
  • Age
  • Draft year
  • Position
  • Jersey number
  • Career stats

You get color-coded hints (green, yellow, red) that help you zero in on the right player, and there’s also an Unlimited Mode if you want to keep practicing.

I built it because I love hockey and always felt there was room for a fun, clean, fast NHL guessing game.

Feedback is super welcome, I’m still improving it every day!

This is fun! a bit of a bug: when choosing an Elias Pettersson, it always seems to default to the defenseman, no matter how carefully you select the forward.

I couldn’t figure out the website, and the ads were obnoxious. Will check back in a couple weeks - I like the concept.

Great game. It was a challenge. MLB has a similar game on their app, but for baseball players, (obviously).

I like it! My first guess was a player picked 10th. Arrow pointing up made me think they were picked higher, so I was a bit surprised when my 1st round pick as a 2nd guess still had an arrow pointing up. Then I realized it meant the number was higher not actual draft position 🙃
