How to play Basketball Shooting
Make Basketball Shooting your next activity in the game library. Score as many baskets as possible from ten shots. Use the example below to understand a decision. Compare the starting position with the example in the Guide. Look at what changes after your first action.

Make the controls familiar
Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart. Notice the feedback after each input.
Your goal
Score as many baskets as possible from ten shots. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Review the board or playing area as it changes.
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. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.
A useful example
A rising crossing does not score until a downward entry occurs. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Check the stated objective.
Watch out for this
Backboard contact alone is not a basket. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
