About the Game

Overview

In this sports /  puzzle game, clicking wisely is the key to victory.

Each level contains a basketball goal, a box that shoots the ball when clicked, and a series of obstacles. Some obstacles move when clicked, as indicated by the dotted lines. Move the objects into the correct positions, shoot the ball, and score.

Obstacles

Each obstacle affects the ball differently. The “launcher platform” launches the ball horizontally. The “bouncer platform” bounces the ball vertically upward. The “ball carrier” catches the ball, begins moving side to side, and drops the ball when clicked. These are just a few of the many elements of each level. These objects can also work together to score each shot. When the ball hits a bouncer, try sliding a launcher under the ball when it hits the peak.

Level Objectives

If simply scoring the shot is not enough of a challenge, each level also contains bonus objectives. Click fast to score within the time limit, or click efficiently to score within the click limit. Skilled players can attempt to get all three check marks on every level.

Solve puzzles, time your clicks, and put the ball in the basket!
