Game overview

Basketball School is a pure shooting arcade that splits its challenge across three distinct modes. Arcade hands you ten balls and tightens the difficulty with every made basket, Time Attack gives unlimited shots against a ticking clock, and Distance mode pushes your release point farther back each time you connect. The result is a tight, replayable test of touch and timing.

This title is best suited to solo shooting-skill practice and score runs.
