Looking for a quick sports game? Coconut Basketball runs in the browser and needs no download. The core of it is shooting and basketball. It works the same on desktop, tablet and phone, and your progress picks up where the game left it.
About Coconut Basketball
Coconut Basketball is an exciting sports game to play for all ages. Play this technical game which tests your aiming ability to make a goal. How long you can stay in the game is determined by how well you can aim. Calculate the right angle and degree of force and shoot the coconut through into the basket!
How to play Coconut Basketball
There is very little to learn before your first run. The controls are listed in full in the table below — there are only a handful of them. The game is wide rather than tall — fullscreen is worth it on a monitor, and on a phone the picture is much better sideways. The second run is always better than the first — that is the whole learning curve.
Controls

|---|---|
| Mouse | Aim |

Why it is worth playing
What makes Coconut Basketball stick is that failure is informative. You can usually name the mistake, and that is what makes another attempt tempting. That is a rarer quality than it sounds.
