Basketball, Volleyball, Tennis, Darts and Boxing Games, Sorted by Sport and Players

Outside soccer, the sports games on PlayTundra cluster around a handful of sports you play on a court, across a table or inside a ring: basketball, volleyball, tennis and ping-pong, air hockey, darts, and boxing with its close relatives wrestling and sumo. That is forty-nine games, and within a single sport they can be very different things. One basketball game gives each player a single key; another has separate keys for slapping, throwing and dunking; a third is played entirely with the mouse and a ball count.

This page sorts them first by sport and then by how many people can play. Each table shows the keys or input listed on the game's own page, the player modes the developer's listing actually states, and what the developer says sets the game apart. The control references were matched against the developer's listing using each game's distribution ID, the 32-character code the game is served from, not by title. Where our page and the developer's listing disagreed, this guide follows the developer. Where a listing says nothing about modes, the table says "not stated" rather than guessing. Soccer has its own page: see every soccer game compared.

1. Basketball

Basketball is the largest group, eleven games, and it splits cleanly into games you play head-to-head on a keyboard and games that are really about shooting with the mouse.

Head-to-head on a keyboard

GameKeys listed on its pagePlayersWhat is distinctive (per the developer)
Basket RandomPlayer 1: W. Player 2: Up arrowSolo vs CPU, or 2 on one keyboardOne key each; fields, players and balls change; first to 5 wins
Drunk BasketPlayer 1: hold W to charge, release to throw. Player 2: hold Up arrowSolo vs AI, or 2 on the same deviceActive-ragdoll players; a random twist each round, such as low gravity or a giant ball
Basketball LegendsPlayer 1: W A S D, X Z V to slap, throw and dunk. Player 2: arrow keys, K LTournament vs CPU, or quick matches vs a friendBlock and slap to knock the opponent out; a super shot bar for a special dunk from anywhere
Basketball League1 player: arrows, X shoot / dunk, Z supershot. 2 players: P1 W A S D + V B, P2 arrows + L KSolo vs CPU, or local 2 playersOne-on-one and two-on-two matches; Bronze, Silver and Gold Cups; hold to charge, release to score
Basketball AllStarsArrows move and jump, Down block / pump, X steal / shoot, Z supershotCalled a 2 player game by the developer, but only one key set is listedPick a team and enter a tournament; supershot bar at the top of the screen

Basket Random and Drunk Basket both belong to the ragdoll party families, and our Random and Drunken series guide explains how those rounds work. The practical difference: Basket Random's one key simply jumps and swings, while Drunk Basket's developer adds a charge — you hold the key and let go to throw.

If you want real basketball moves, the choice is between Basketball Legends and Basketball League. Both list two complete key sets. Legends' listing stresses slapping and blocking the opponent to steal the ball and a super shot that "never fails" once the bar fills. League is the only one here with two-on-two matches and a cup ladder. Basketball AllStars has a description almost identical to Legends, but its listing gives only one set of keys, so we do not count it as a same-keyboard game.

Shooting and solo games

GameKeys listed on its pagePlayersWhat is distinctive (per the developer)
Basketball ShooterHold mouse click to set distance, release to shootChallenge, 1 player or 2 player optionsShoot for high scores against the other team
Basketball Simulator 3DW A S D or arrows to run, mouse to aim, hold left button for power, P pauseNot statedPick a team, then make shots from different distances before time runs out
Epic BasketballHold left mouse button, drag to aim, releaseSolo; world ranking20 players to unlock, each with different animations and different things to throw
Basketball ParkDrag and release to shootSolo; leaderboardStart with 10 balls; a basket that does not touch the rim earns extra balls; helper creatures at score milestones
Basketball.ioW A S D or arrows; mouse dragNot statedDribble, shoot, score
Basketball StrikeMouse onlyNot statedDrive the lane and dunk on a path to MVP

Of these, Basketball Shooter is the only one whose listing mentions a 2 player option. Basketball Park has the clearest rule: ten balls, and clean swishes keep you going. Epic Basketball is the one with something to collect, twenty unlockable throwers. Basketball Simulator 3D is the only one here that combines keyboard movement with mouse aiming. The listings for Basketball.io and Basketball Strike are a single line each, so there is little more we can say about them.

2. Volleyball

All four volleyball games support two players, which makes this the most reliably social sport on the page.

GameKeys listed on its pagePlayersWhat is distinctive (per the developer)
Volley RandomPlayer 1: W. Player 2: Up arrowSolo vs CPU, or 2 on one keyboardRagdoll physics; the court, ball and players may change
Volley LamaOne player: Up arrow or click. Two players: W or left side of the screen, Up arrow or right sideAlone or with a friendLlamas; a random physics engine gives a different outcome on every hit; play for the highest score
Beach VolleyballPlayer 1: W A S D. Player 2: arrow keysPlayer vs CPU, or player vs playerBeach setting; also playable on mobile
Coconut VolleyArrow keys or W A D; another control method can be selectedSingle player vs AI, or two player mode vs a friendTropical island; you bounce a coconut instead of a ball

The split here is one key versus full movement. Volley Random and Volley Lama both give each player one key and lean on unpredictable physics, but Volley Lama's developer frames it around a high score, and it is the one to choose on a touchscreen because each player gets half of the screen. Beach Volleyball and Coconut Volley let you move and jump, so positioning matters more than luck.

3. Tennis and ping-pong

Tennis

GameKeys listed on its pagePlayersWhat is distinctive (per the developer)
Tennis MasterArrow keys to move, X hit, Z smashVs computer, or 2 player mode (only Player 1 keys listed)Power-ups and funny transformations
Tennis HeroClick, tap or cursor keys to swing; hold and release to serveSolo, against 3 opponentsOne-button timing; serve when the power bar is maxed but avoid overpowering; aim for a gold medal
Cubic TennisMouse onlyNot statedBlocky poly graphics; first to 3 wins
Pocket TennisMouse swipe; touch swipe on mobileNot statedPick your racket and ball before going on court
Mini Tennis ClubMouse or touchTournament; practice first3D; unlock new characters

Tennis Master is the only tennis game whose listing mentions playing a friend, though it gives keys for Player 1 only. Tennis Hero reduces the sport to timing one button, with a serve meter you must not overfill. The three mouse games differ by length and setup: Cubic Tennis is a short first-to-three match, Pocket Tennis lets you choose equipment, and Mini Tennis Club has a tournament and characters to unlock.

Ping-pong and Pong

GameKeys listed on its pagePlayersWhat is distinctive (per the developer)
Table PongPlayer 1: W A S D. Player 2: arrow keys; on-screen arrows on mobile2 players (described as played with a friend)Table tennis between two friends
Neon Ping PongPlayer 1: W / S, or mouse / touch on the left half. Player 2: keys shown in-game in 2-Player mode1-Player vs AI, or 2-Player localAI gets harder as you go; settings for paddle size and maximum ball speed
Newpong MultiplayerRed: W / S. Blue: Up / Down arrowsSingle player, local split-screen, or online with a friendOptional power-ups in single player and local play
Crazy Table TennisW A S D to moveSolo vs AIPong-inspired; the developer calls the AI unbeatable
Multiplayer Pong TimeMouse, or tapOnline: enter a nickname and wait for an opponentOnline matchmaking

Newpong Multiplayer covers the most situations — alone, side by side, or online — and is the only one with power-ups. Neon Ping Pong is the one to adjust: you can shrink the paddles or cap the ball speed. Table Pong is built for two people on one keyboard and nothing else, while Multiplayer Pong Time is online-only.

4. Air hockey

GameKeys listed on its pagePlayersWhat is distinctive (per the developer)
Neon Hockey 2Player 1: left mouse, left half of a touchscreen, or W A S D. Player 2: right half or arrow keys. Esc or P pause1 player vs AI (three difficulty levels), or 2 players on one deviceBest of 3 periods, 7 goals to win a period; mallet size and maximum puck speed settings
Air Hockey GlowDrag your paddle with mouse or touchOffline multiplayer on one device, or computer opponentsGlow style; drag speed controls the puck
Air Hockey CupClick and drag a token to aim and shootNot stated; league and tournamentsShoot tokens like players; spend winnings on upgrades, rings and formations

Neon Hockey 2 is the most complete version of the table game, and the only one where two people can split a keyboard rather than a screen. Air Hockey Glow's developer listing has no instructions at all, so the drag control comes from our page only. Air Hockey Cup is a different kind of game despite the name: you shoot tokens like players and improve them through upgrades. If you wanted rink hockey instead, Ice Hockey (Player 1 W / S, Player 2 Up / Down arrows) and Puppet Hockey Battle (arrow keys, F to shoot) are in the sports section.

5. Darts

GameKeys listed on its pagePlayersWhat is distinctive (per the developer)
Darts 501Mouse or finger swipe to throw2 player vs a friend, or a world tournament vs AITraditional 501, or a 9 dart challenge
Darts Pro MultiplayerClick or tap to set position, direction and powerMultiplayer, vs the PC, or a friend on the same deviceThree modes
Dart Duell: Timing ChampionMouse or touch to aim; click, tap or Space to lock aim, again to stop the power meter; Esc pauseVs computer, training, or a friend in an online roomX01 format; choose profile, venue and format; statistics tracking; finish on doubles
Glow DartsMouse to move the dart; click and hold to aim; release to throwNot statedLight effects; 301, 501, Around The World and Baseball modes

The darts games differ mostly in how a throw is made. Dart Duell uses two separate locks, aim then power, which is the most deliberate. Darts 501 is a swipe. Glow Darts has the widest choice of formats, four of them, while Darts Pro Multiplayer has the widest choice of opponents, including someone sitting next to you.

6. Boxing, wrestling and sumo

Two players on one keyboard

GameKeys listed on its pagePlayersWhat is distinctive (per the developer)
Boxing RandomPlayer 1: W. Player 2: Up arrowSolo vs CPU, or 2 on one keyboardRounds bring long arms, icy floors or rocket punches; first to 5 head hits wins
Drunken BoxingPlayer 1: arrow keys. Player 2: W A S D2 on one keyboardEnergy bar: punch too much and you are left vulnerable while it recovers
Drunken Boxing: UltimatePlayer 1: Up / Down move, Left / Right punch, L special. Player 2: W / S, A / D, G2 on one keyboard3D arenas, improved physics and a special hit when its bar fills
Wobbly BoxingPlayer 1: F G punch, T double punch, Q E block / dodge. Player 2: K L, O, I PTwo-player mode vs a friendLeft, right and double punches plus a block-and-dodge pair for each player
Ragdoll Duel: BoxingPlayer 1: A / D, S crouch, F punch, G super punch. Player 2: arrows, Down crouch, L, KVs AI, or vs a friendStickman boxers; win 2 rounds; save the super punch
Boxing Gang StarsPlayer 1: W A S D (arrows in 1P), F G T punch, E block. Player 2: arrows, K L O, I block1 player or 2 playerPhysics-based characters
Drunken WrestlePlayer 1: W. Player 2: Up arrow1P and 2P modesTouch the opponent's head to the ground; level conditions vary; first to 5
Pixel SumoBlue: W. Red: Up arrow; two buttons on mobileAgainst friendsKnock the opponent out of the field; first to 5 points

The one-key games here — Boxing Random, Drunken Wrestle and Pixel Sumo — all play to five and are the easiest to hand to someone who has never seen them; the first two are covered in the series guide. Among the full-layout boxing games, Wobbly Boxing and Boxing Gang Stars use nearly the same key map (three punches and a block on each side of the keyboard). Ragdoll Duel: Boxing adds crouching and a super punch, and the two Drunken games make stamina the real opponent. More same-keyboard picks are in the two-player section and the two-player, one-keyboard guide.

Solo and online

GameKeys listed on its pagePlayersWhat is distinctive (per the developer)
Mini BoxingLeft / Right move, Up block, Z jab, X straight, C uppercutSoloBoxer Nick-Joe against six opponents; inspired by 1980s arcade games

Sumo Smash!W A S D or Q Z S D; touch on mobileNot statedEat sushi to grow; treasure chests with skins in the arena

Mini Boxing: Final Round is Mini Boxing with more to it: the same three punches on Z, X and C, plus a dodge and a button-mash to get up off the canvas. King Boxing 2024 is the simplest layout, one attack and one defence key. Wrestle Online is the only ring game with online play. The two sumo games share a premise — eat sushi, get bigger, push — and Sumo Smash! adds skins to unlock.

Where to start

How this page was put together

We did not rank these games by playing them, and there are no scores or match results here. This page lines up facts already on the forty-nine game pages — keys, modes and win conditions — after those facts were checked against each developer listing by distribution ID. Where a listing calls a game two-player but gives only one set of keys, we say so instead of assuming. Each embed was re-checked from a server in the United States on the date shown at the top.
