Synopsis

Basketball Challenge is a sports simulation similar to the publisher's previous game, NFL Challenge. The game is based on college basketball and features real players from the era, although the twenty teams included have made-up names. The player can choose any of the two teams and play single matches either between two human players, against an AI opponent, or with both computer-controlled teams.nnnnThe game is played by making selections from text menus while the field and player positions are viewed from a simple top-down perspective where each player is represented by a number. Before the start of a match, the player can give instructions to his team. This includes the choice of offensive and defensive plays, tempo and team composition. Once the match begins, a text commentary describes what is happening as the numbers move around the field. As a coach, the player can influence the match by changing tactics or replacing players in the event of a dead ball. It is also possible to shout instructions to the team when the match is in progress.
