The ball bounces

By Mir Games.net

The ball bounces sends a basketball rolling and hopping along a city street lined with walls, crates, pallets and hoops. Your job is to keep it moving forward, knock over the striped-shirt bullies in the way, grab the cash floating along the route and drop the ball through the basketball hoops. It runs free in your browser on desktop and mobile, no download needed.

How to Play The ball bounces

Each stage plays out on a side-on 3D street. The ball travels forward past low concrete walls, stacked crates, pallets of blocks and the occasional parked truck. Clicking or tapping is the only input, and it is what keeps the ball in play as it bounces along the route.

Bullies stand in the path wearing purple-and-white striped tops; hitting them clears them out of the way. Stacks of white blocks and wooden crates break apart on impact, and bundles of green cash sit in the air and on the ground for you to collect. Your cash total is shown in the top-right corner, and the current level number sits at the top of the screen.

Basketball hoops are mounted along the walls — later stretches line up several in a row. Sending the ball through them is part of the goal. When a level ends, a reward board appears with cash prizes and gift slots, some of which offer an extra bonus, then the next level begins.

Tips

  1. Watch the cash bundles floating over the street; lining your bounces up with them builds the counter in the top-right corner.
  2. Crates, pallets and block stacks break when the ball hits them, so aim at clutter instead of trying to squeeze past it.
  3. Later levels place hoops close together along the wall — keep the ball high enough to reach the rims rather than rolling underneath them.
