description Air Hockey Overview
Air hockey is an indoor table game in which two players use handheld strikers to propel a flat puck into opposing goals. The perforated playing surface releases air, reducing friction so the puck can travel rapidly across the table. Developed by Brunswick employees in the United States around 1969 to 1972, it became common in amusement arcades and is also played competitively under standardized rules.
