Hit the Court and Play Hoops Basketball on Your Apple Watch
Just like apps on the Apple Watch, games on the wearable device should be easy and simple to use and enjoy for short periods of time. And with the larger screen of the Apple Watch Ultra and modern Apple Watch models, it’s even easier to enjoy a quick gaming session.
If you have a few minutes, give the new casual Apple Watch game Hoops Basketball a try.
As you probably could tell by the name, the game is all about basketball. You’ll shoot with a simple drag gesture across the screen. Make a basket, and you’ll score a point while a shoot from all away across the court is a fire shot worth 3 points.
There are three games modes to enjoy. In Classic, you have 60 seconds to shoot as many baskets as possible.
In Time Attack, the clock starts with 5 seconds. Each made basket will give you 3 additional seconds. Score a fire shot to add 5 seconds to the clock.
Finally, in Hoop or Die, you have to score a basket to continue. Any miss and the game is over.
Especially on the larger screen of my Apple Watch Ultra, the game looks great. It takes a bit of practice to master, but it’s definitely a lot of fun. The time and scoreboard is on top of the screen and will also show your all-time high score.
Hoops Basketball is for the Apple Watch and can be downloaded now on the App Store for $1.99.
