Your goal
Score as many baskets as possible from ten shots. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. Return to the instructions when a step is unclear.
Step by step
- Set angle and power.
- Shoot.
- A downward crossing inside the rim scores.
- Adjust for another shot.
Controls
Touch aim, sliders and Shoot; Space fires. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Look at the feedback after the action.
A useful example
A rising crossing does not score until a downward entry occurs. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Choose a deliberate next step.
Watch out for this
Backboard contact alone is not a basket. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart.
