Animal Jam Basketball is a game found in the Sol Arcade and several other places around Jamaa including Sarepia Forest, The Lost Temple of Zios and Balloosh, the game gets a unique background depending on the location its played, by default it is a generic Basketball Court with an Animal Jam-themed Setting.
Gameplay.[]
The Player Animal and their team (Which can consist of either other Player Animals or Unique Alpha NPCs) have to shoot the Basketball into the hoop the most to win against the Phantoms. The game plays with basic movement controls, either the Arrow Keys, WASD keys or Clicking on PC, on Mobile by Tapping or moving the Joystick, the player and their team have to strategize as the game progresses and the Phantoms play dirtier. The player can pass the ball by Clicking or Tapping on their teammates and they can also be prompted to dribble against the Phantoms, but they have to be careful, as the ball can be intercepted by Phantoms at any time, sometimes by fouls. The player only has control over their Animal, as the NPC Players will be controlled by Bots so most Solo matches will have a luck factor to them apart from strategizing. It is highly recommended to play with Buddies or other Players for a better overall experience.
