AndroidTapp.com Android Game Review:
Features:
- Easy touchscreen control.
- Single player mode with a computer-controlled opponent that gradually gets tougher as you get better.
- Every time you win, your “level” gets upgraded so you can compare your progress with friends.
- Super smooth graphics.
- Includes a bonus mode for two players on one phone. Just take turns to hit the puck and release your finger quickly after shooting.
- Great realistic air hockey sounds.
Air Hockey for Android game is Awesome! As a single player game against the computer player, Air Hockey really shines as the computer opponent “ain’t no punk”. The more you win, the tougher and faster it gets. In testing it, the computer really kicked our @ss! As you win, your puck speed increases… lose and it decreases. You can easily share your score with friends via SMS Text or Email.
Gripe Alert: There is an option for 2 player mode but presents limitations (this is due to the lack of true multi touch support… which is a limitation of the Android Operating system at the request of Apple) 
Tips on playing 2 player mode:
- You can increase/decrease the puck speed.
- Only one player can touch the screen at a time.
- You can touch your half of the screen only when the puck is on your side of the centerline.
- After you make a shot, quickly lift your finger off the screen. It takes a bit of getting used to. Give it a few games!
