68/100

Epic Basketball Race is a simple but addictive competitive arcade game. It captures the frantic energy of those basketball shooting machines you find at arcades like Dave & Buster's. The 'race' element comes from trying to out-shoot and even block your opponent in real-time. It’s fast-paced, with rounds lasting only a minute or two, making it perfect for mobile play.

The controls are straightforward—flicking to shoot and tapping to block—but the timing can be tricky, especially against better AI or players. While it's a bit light on features compared to major NBA titles, its casual approach and quick progression make it an easy game to pick up and play whenever you have a few minutes to spare. It’s more of a 'high-score chaser' than a deep sports sim, and it excels in that niche.

Dinsun. I’m not even sure why this exists. It’s a 'race' with a basketball that feels like it was put together in a weekend. The physics are floaty, the 'racing' is non-existent as the AI is brain-dead, and the ads are relentless. Every 30 seconds of 'gameplay' is followed by a 30-second ad. It’s the worst kind of mobile trash designed to harvest ad views from unsuspecting kids. There is no depth, no skill, and zero reason to play this for more than two minutes. Calling it 'Epic' is the biggest joke of all.
