Game overview

Bucketball is a physics-driven shooting game built around one simple goal: land the ball in the bucket. Each of its 25 levels arranges walls, ramps, and obstacles that you have to shoot around, over, or through with the right angle and power. Reading the layout and finding the one clean trajectory is where the puzzle really lives.

This title is best suited to physics puzzle and trick-shot fans.

  1. Study the level layout and obstacle placement
  2. Aim the ball toward the bucket
  3. Adjust angle and power to clear the obstacles
  4. Land the shot to complete the level and move on
