## What is Blindfold Basketball?

Blindfold Games are entertainment apps provided as a service to the visually impaired community by Objective Ed.  Your in-app upgrades pay for the development and support of these games. 

Basketball is an fully accessible audio game that's just like playing basketball on an indoor court.

In Basketball, the tutorial teaches you how to move on the court, pick up the ball, dribble and shoot with 3 lessons.  Then you start playing one of the coach game.  Coach tells you where to go, and which of 5 different types of shots to make: such as a free throw, dunk, hook, jump or post shot.

As you move from level to level in the coach games, your shooting must become more accurate to score points.

Once you get good at the coach games, you can play with opponents are the court.  Depending on the game, some opponents move around randomly and others play a strong defensive game, trying to block your shots.

Like the other Blindfold Games, you can post your high scores to Facebook or Twitter.

Basketball was suggested by several blind gamers who enjoyed Blindfold Bowling and Blindfold Shuffleboard.

The game includes several in-app upgrades.

### 2/5 — Well, it’s not like basketball at all

*2025-03-22*

I’ve been blind my whole life, but in school, I would play basketball in my gym class. This game is nothing like basketball nothing like it.

### 1/5 — Do not download. Massive scam.

*2023-06-12*

The game is horrible. All you do is walk around and shoot the ball into the goal and you can’t really shoot it because you keep missing. This game is the worst game I’ve ever played. I deleted it. it is the worst game on the App Store. I don’t like to leave negative reviews but this time I need to warn people not to download this. You can download it but it will be the worst experience you’ll ever have. It is probably the worst game in the world. I hate this game so so so much. It’s not worth losing storage on your phone.

### 1/5 — Never like this game

*2020-07-29*

I played this game a couple years ago when I was only 14. Well really it was five years ago. I never really liked how the game worked. The gestures were too overwhelming, and sometimes your phone wouldn’t cooperate. The game isn’t anything like basketball as previously stated by one of the reviewer‘s.

### 2/5 — This game is nothing like basketball

*2017-08-01*

I am a blind boy who used to be able to see, and I have played and watched  basketball and this is only like it by the the way that the court is set up.
