Fancy a match of basketball? Basket Cases is a two-on-two basketball videogame putting nine teams of increasing difficulty and decreasing sportmanship against the player: they won't mind playing foul if that's what it takes them to win the tournament! Oh, two players can duke it out too! Basketball rules have been simplified to ease the gameplay. Players automatically bounce the ball on the floor, stay inside the bounds and avoid committing several violations. Each match is four minutes long. Human control applies to the player either holding the ball or closest to it; the computer handles the other player. Actions depend upon whether the team is holding the ball (attacking) or not (defending): on attack, jump will either dunk (if the player is below the basket) or shoot the ball to the basket, while fire will pass the ball to the teammate. On defense, jump will try catching an airborne ball, while fire will try stealing the ball off a rival.
