About Basketball Stars
Basketball Stars, developed by MadPuffers, puts famous clubs and players on a 2D court where scoring more points than your opponent is all that matters. Recognizable athlete caricatures headline the roster, and both your team and your opponent's can be picked freely — setting up matchups exactly how you want them. Sound isn't required, though it deepens the atmosphere of each match.
How to Play Basketball Stars
Pick your team and player, then step onto the court for a 1-on-1 or team match. Shoot, steal, pump, dash, and unleash a super shot to outscore your opponent before time runs out. All modes, players, and teams are available from the start with no restrictions, and a built-in tutorial walks through the controls and gameplay principles. There are no set levels — just match after match across different modes and team combinations.
