Our take on Basketball
The bounce point arrives quickly for anyone expecting a full basketball game: the experience is built around a short story and several unusual minigames, ending after 20–30 minutes. Mouse-dependent players also hit a firm limit because the controls accept a controller or keyboard instead.
What is Basketball?
Basketball follows a child sent to a tropical island by his father during the holidays.
The game takes place in a hotel relaxation area, where basketball activities are combined with other minigames and a story about virtual reality. Players throw balls at hoops, targets, objectives, and characters. Other scenes involve crushing robots inside an inflatable ball and piloting a spaceship through debris. The experience lasts 20–30 minutes and supports a controller or keyboard, but not a mouse. Its structure combines a short narrative with several unusual activities rather than presenting a conventional basketball game.
