There’s a basketball arcade game that looks a lot like basketball because it has a hoop and some basketballs. But it’s not basketball—you have no teammates, there are no opponents, the ball is smaller, and there are multiple balls.

Watch the player on the left vs the one in the center of this video.
Notice the details of the game you’re playing and you will have a leg up on the competition.
