The game has [[Mario]] trying to shoot a basketball into a hoop, located at a distance. To throw the ball, the player first has to aim the throw using the left and right arrow keys, then hold the space bar to set the throwing force. The ball moves on an arc path and bounces off surrounding objects, such as the floor or the basket's backboard. For each successful shot, the player is awarded 50000 points which are added to a score. | |||
On the way, the ball may bump into [[Arrow Lift|arrow wheel]]s that send it in the direction they indicate. Some of them slowly spin around, thus constantly changing direction. While some may fling the ball in the proper direction, other only hinder it by bouncing it away from the basket. [[Coin]]s are scattered throughout the area as well and can be collected with the ball, each coin adding 100 points to the score. The coins themselves are added to a separate coin counter. The [[Red Coin|red coin]] that appears among the gold ones is worth 10 gold coins and, therefore, also 1000 points. | |||
