Price: 2.99
App Store Link: [Full] / [Free Lite]
Review: Like it
Recommendation: Nothing too deep, just a great casual play game for sports fans. Worth it.
Replay value: Medium-High
The developers at Skyworks recently released 3 Point Hoops® Basketball to the App Store. Skyworks seems to be one of the leading developers in fun, quick, and casual sports games for the touch platform. You might recognize their name from some of their other popular app titles, including [Aracade Bowling] and [Arcade Hoops Basketball]--Both excellent games, and their new app 3 Point Hoops® Basketball is no exception.
Graphics are exceptional, and gamplay is simple but fun. Players attempt three-point shots from various spots around the line (9 spots with 5 balls each) trying to earn the highest score possible. The game makes excellent use of touch and swipe controls for shooting to give the game a fun and unique feel. Players can choose from two modes, Classic Mode and Sudden Death, and compete by listing their scores on local and global leaderboards.
Is this the kind of game that you'll sit and play on your couch for three hours at a time? No, probably not. But it is the kind of game you can quickly pullout and play while waiting around or standing in line, which makes it a good purchase in my opinion.
What we'd like to see in future updates: A new two player mode of the classic basketball game "Horse."
