How to play Swish Shot
Swish Shot is a quick arcade basketball game seen from behind the ball. Swipe up from the ball to throw: the longer the swipe, the harder the throw, and a dotted arc shows where it is heading. You have 45 seconds to score as many baskets as you can.
Clean swishes pay extra, bank shots off the backboard count too, and every three baskets in a row raise your multiplier up to x5 and add two seconds. A miss resets the streak. The hoop starts close and centred, then slides farther away and begins to swing from side to side.
An optional short video gives +10 seconds once per run. Your best score is saved on your device.
