What players say

Players praise BasketBelle as a charming and creative blend of basketball and platforming, but nearly everyone warns it is very short at under an hour. The heartwarming story about a boy rescuing his sister and the unique cardboard art style stand out, though some find the controls awkward or the last level unfun.
