Sports Games

Sports games in the browser work best when they compress a match into minutes, and that is what this shelf selects for: Mini Tennis strips tennis to timing and placement, Ping Pong Table Tennis is reflex training with a scoreboard, and Challenge the Basketball turns free throws into a physics puzzle.

Several titles here support two players on one keyboard — the game pages flag which ones, and those are consistently the picks people come back to at lunch breaks. Rules are arcade-simplified on purpose; if you want a full season-management experience, that lives on the simulation shelf instead.
