Basketball Skills
In the basketball arcade game Basketball Skills, players have to try to make baskets in all of the different game types on offer. There are three ways to play the game: speed, time attack, and distance.
How to play Basketball Skills
In arcade mode, you have ten ball to use and have to keep making goals, even though each score makes the game harder.
In the time attack game, the goal is to make as many baskets as you can in the time allotted. You have an unlimited number of ball, but only so much time. When you score in distance mode, you can make your shot farther away each time. You must keep the distance from zero; if you do, the game is over. The more times you miss, the farther away the ball will get.
