Basket Random: Crazy Basketball for 1 or 2 Players

About Basket Random

Basket Random is a basketball with physics gone wild, where everything is controlled with a single key. Your players move by jumping and lunging with their arms raised, and the result is unpredictable, hilarious matches. If you fancy more games of this sport, check out our basketball games.

You can play in 1-player mode against the computer or in 2-player mode against a friend on the same keyboard. As the name suggests, the random (chance) factor is key: you don't precisely control your players, only the moment they jump, so every basket is a bit of skill and a good dose of luck.

Its great strength is simplicity: there are no key combos to memorize or complicated menus, so anyone gets the mechanics in seconds. That makes it a perfect game for quick matches with siblings, friends or classmates, because even someone who has never played can win thanks to a lucky bounce. The falls, the collisions between players and the impossible shots that somehow go in make laughs guaranteed.

Tips for playing better: Basket Random

Don't mash the key: if you jump nonstop, your players lose their balance and fall. Wait until they're steady.
The timing is everything: press when your players are close to the ball so they reach it arms first.
To shoot, release the ball while your player is rising toward the basket; if you do it on the way down, the shot usually falls short.
Make the most of rebounds: many points come from a loose ball near the rim after a missed shot.
