Fanatical Basketball

Fanatical Basketball covers the whole arc from dribbling drills to playoff pressure. On court you work the ball, pull up from beyond the arc, or drive the lane for a dunk in 5-on-5 action; off it you build and manage the roster you take into each season. The playoff format is unforgiving, so every game counts.

This title is best suited to basketball fans who enjoy managing a squad.

1. Assemble your roster before heading out for tip-off.
2. Dribble into space and shake off your defender.
3. Pull up for a three or drive inside to finish with a dunk.
4. Win playoff games to keep your season alive.

• Mouse / tap: Dribble, drive and release your shot
• Click and drag: Aim a shot and set its power
• Arrow keys: Move your player up and down the court

Objectives

• Outscore your opponent across 5-on-5 matches.
• Build a squad strong enough to survive the playoffs.

The run ends or fails when

• A playoff defeat ends the season on the spot.
• Trailing when the final buzzer sounds gives the game away.

• Shot selection weighs long-range attempts against high-percentage drives.
• Team management shapes the squad you take into every fixture.
• Playoff rounds run on knockout rules, making each game decisive.

• Take the open three rather than forcing your way into traffic at the rim.
• Draw defenders wide before cutting inside for an uncontested dunk.
• Balance the roster instead of stacking one position, because playoff games punish gaps.
