Sports games here are quick, stylised takes on real games. Football, basketball, golf, tennis, pool and others, each stripped to its core action. Kick, shoot, swing, serve. A match or round lasts a few minutes. There is often a tournament structure, so a session might carry you through several opponents with a trophy at the end. The rules are familiar even when the physics are cartoonish.

• Arrow keys or WASD to move; Space to jump or confirm

1. 1Check the control hint, which usually shows a single action key or a tap and drag for aiming and power.

3. 3Watch the power meter if there is one and release just before the top for maximum effect without overshooting.
