Epic Basketball Race is a simple but addictive competitive arcade game. It captures the frantic energy of those basketball shooting machines you find at arcades like Dave & Buster's. The 'race' element comes from trying to out-shoot and even block your opponent in real-time. It’s fast-paced, with rounds lasting only a minute or two, making it perfect for mobile play.
The controls are straightforward—flicking to shoot and tapping to block—but the timing can be tricky, especially against better AI or players. While it's a bit light on features compared to major NBA titles, its casual approach and quick progression make it an easy game to pick up and play whenever you have a few minutes to spare. It’s more of a 'high-score chaser' than a deep sports sim, and it excels in that niche.

Timing is everything for defense. Wait for the opponent's ball to reach the peak of its arc before tapping to block, as doing it too early will result in a miss.
Making consecutive baskets without missing activates a multiplier that significantly boosts your score for that round.
The game primarily features a competitive race against AI or ranked opponents in a leaderboard format.
