Basketball Smash is a free sports game you can play right here in your browser. It leans on shooting, parkour & running and basketball, so expect short rounds you can repeat. You can jump in for two minutes or lose an hour to it; either works.

About Basketball Smash

In this basketball game, all you have to do is keep dunking those shots. However, the time is quickly running out and leaves room for less and less mistakes along the road. Easy to learn, hard to master. Can you unlock all the balls? Jump with the ball and shoot the basket within the time limit. Tap, Dunk, Repeat!

How to play Basketball Smash

Nothing here needs explaining twice. The full control mapping is in the table below and takes a moment to skim. It is built tall rather than wide — comfortable one-handed on a phone, centred and uncropped on a monitor. Take the first run as practice and the second one seriously.

Why it is worth playing

The reason Basketball Smash holds up is restraint: it takes one idea — shooting — and builds the whole game around it instead of padding it out. The result is something you can pick up cold months later.
