Hoops is a fast, satisfying 3D arcade basketball game. Flick the ball at a hoop that slides forward and back across a real court — read the distance, find your rhythm, and rack up swishes. TWO WAYS TO PLAY • Timed — sink as many as you can before the 60-second buzzer. • Survival — keep your hot hand alive; six misses in a row and you're out. GET HOT String makes together for a growing points bonus. Drain six in a row and the ball catches fire for double points — but one miss and the streak is gone. FEATURES • True 3D court with a high-school-gym vibe — banners, bleachers, and a crowd • Six courts to shoot on, from hardwood to neon to the blue-and-gold home gym • Game Center leaderboards for both modes • Simple one-touch controls — quick rounds, easy to pick up Free to play. A Gibson Family Arcade game.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Skyrdle at none against Hoops's shown. Skyrdle also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). Hoops's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 3 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
