Blades of Steel is an ice hockey video game published by Konami on an arcade machine in 1987, and released for the Nintendo Entertainment System and the Commodore 64 in 1988 and adapted in 1991 for the Game Boy, DOS and Amiga.

This is a one or two player game. When playing against the computer, there are three difficulty levels to choose from: Junior, College, and Pro (Pro being the hardest and the easiest being Junior). Each team consists of three wingers, two defenders and a goalkeeper.
