THE PLAYER'S GUIDE
KNOW THE GAME.
A hockey roguelite where each run can change
Tape to Tape takes the speed and physicality of arcade hockey and wraps it in a roguelite campaign. The Steam listing describes a journey to build the best hockey team, with choices along the way affecting how a run develops. Rather than treating every match as an isolated exhibition, you make decisions about your route, recruit players, and discover abilities that can change the way your squad handles the next opponent. Its 1.0 release arrived on October 23, 2026, after Early Access, and the developers describe the campaign as rebuilt for launch.
That structure makes the game a good fit for players who enjoy learning through repeat attempts. A run can go wrong, but the next one can offer different choices and combinations. Approach the campaign as a series of experiments: notice which players and abilities complement each other, and change your plan when an opponent exposes a weakness. The Steam page currently advertises 19 playable squads and a large range of abilities, but the exact roster and balance are build-specific. Check the live updates if you return after a patch.
Build a team with complementary strengths
Recruitment and synergy are central parts of the campaign. When you add a player, think about how their role might fit with the people already on your roster, rather than judging them in isolation. A squad that has a reliable way to move the puck, create space, and finish a chance can feel more consistent than a collection of flashy abilities that do not work together. Read each option's description and test it during a match before deciding whether it suits your style.
Abilities can alter the rhythm of a game, so try to understand what a new upgrade actually does. If a run offers several choices, prioritize the one that solves the problem you have been encountering. For example, if you are struggling to create scoring chances, a tool that helps your team control possession may be more useful than another situational boost. The exact effects depend on the current version, so rely on the in-game text rather than a list copied from an older build. Small, deliberate decisions make it easier to tell what improved your team.
Read opponents and use the rink
The sports action is fast, but taking a moment to read the play can be more useful than constantly chasing the puck. Watch how the opposing team approaches a possession and look for a safe route to regain control. Keep your players positioned to support the puck carrier and avoid turning every attack into a straight-line rush. If you lose possession, recover as a group and protect the path to your goal before trying to counterattack.
Because Tape to Tape includes unusual abilities and arcade-style moments, not every situation will resemble a traditional hockey match. Treat early games as practice for the controls and tempo. Learn how your chosen squad handles movement and shooting, then use a run to experiment with one new ability at a time. If a match becomes chaotic, focus on the basic objective: keep the puck moving toward a scoring opportunity while avoiding unnecessary risks near your own net. These are general play habits; exact tactics can vary with squad abilities and the current balance.
Choose paths and handle a difficult run
The campaign asks you to choose a path and encounter different opportunities as you progress. Think about what your team needs before choosing a branch. A route that offers an upgrade may be more valuable than an immediate reward if your lineup has a clear weakness. Likewise, a risky encounter may be worthwhile if its reward fits your plan, but do not assume that every detour is automatically beneficial. Read the choice descriptions and consider how much health, resources, or momentum your team has before committing.
Failure is part of a roguelite structure, and a lost run can still teach you something useful. Identify whether the problem came from team composition, poor possession, a difficult opponent, or a decision made earlier on the route. Change one thing in the next attempt and see how it affects the outcome. This is more helpful than restarting with a completely different strategy every time. The 1.0 campaign includes new and rebuilt content compared with earlier versions, so older walkthroughs may not match current encounters or rewards.
Play solo or locally with friends
Steam lists single-player and shared or split-screen multiplayer, including local co-op and PvP. The developers recommend using a controller. It also lists Steam Remote Play Together, which lets players share a local multiplayer session through Steam. The current Steam feature list does not identify native online multiplayer, so do not assume you can join a standard online lobby; check the live store page if the supported modes change.
For a first session, play a few matches alone to learn the controls, then invite a friend if you want the shared-screen experience. Agree on who will control which players and communicate before making a risky play. The game can be funny and unpredictable, but coordinated passing and support still help. Tape to Tape is available through its official Steam listing, which has the current build, system requirements, controller details, and updates. NEXPLAY does not host game files; install and patch it through Steam.
