Description

Pitch'n Dunk uses the mechanisms of disc-flicking to simulate a basketball game with the game board representing a basketball field with two 2-point zones and two 3-point zones. Each coach (player of the game) directs wooden tokens; each wooden token represents a player (with five on each team) or the ball.

Coaches alternatively give their players a flick, and the goal is to score 11 points with a 2-point differential. There are different rules to simulate a basketball game:

  • Shot clock: In some situations, the defensive coach can trigger the shot clock; attacking players must score in a limited number of actions.
  • Dribble:: The player who holds the ball can advance by giving one flick before he passes/shoots.
  • 3 offensive fouls:
    • Traveling: Dribble for too long of a distance.
    • Charging: The player who holds the ball touches a defensive player.
    • Backcourt violation: The ball carrying player is back in his team zone after going in the opponent's zone.
  • 3 defensive fouls:
    • Blocking: A defensive player touches an offensive player.
    • Blocking the player who holds the ball: A defensive player touches the player who holds the ball in the defensive zone.
    • Illegal defense: There's no attacking player in the defensive zone and at least one defensive player in the 2-point defensive zone.
