Regular Human Basketball

Take control of a giant, cumbersome robot and try to play basketball against another one.

Basketball is a popular sport in many countries, and it’s a straightforward affair—until you replace all humans with two heavy robots. “Regular Human Basketball” does exactly that.

You don’t control your robot directly. Instead, you take control of a smaller character and run around inside of it. To make it move, you have to press certain buttons, which are scattered across the robot’s body. Your robot is equipped with a giant magnet. Since it’s impossible to move as fast as a “real” NBA player, you need to grab the ball with said magnet.

Controlling one of these robots all by yourself can be challenging. Fortunately, you can invite some friends to assist you. If you’re playing with more than 2 people, the game becomes very hectic. You need to work together under pressure, which naturally leads to a lot of yelling—and a lot of fun! “Regular Human Basketball” is a hilarious party game.

Why you should play it:

• Can be played with 2 people, but it gets better with more.
• Charming art style and a good sense of humor.
