About

Simple Characters 2000 Series Vol. 05: Highschool Kimengumi - The Table Hockey turns classroom chaos into a fast-paced puck-smacking showdown. You pick from five iconic characters to battle opponents in a story mode that mixes hockey action with the show’s signature absurdity. Win by scoring seven goals or outlasting the clock, using special moves and power-ups to tilt matches. The controls are straightforward but responsive, letting you focus on flicking the puck and pulling off flashy tricks between slapshots. The game stands out for its wild character designs and quick matches that keep things lively. While the single-player mode doesn’t stretch too long, the unlockable gallery adds a bit of replay value for fans. Released in 2001 for PlayStation, it’s a niche pick that leans hard into its source material’s goofy energy. No deep stats or ratings here, just a goofy, arcade-style romp for those who remember the Kimengumi craze.
