Description

In a post-apocalyptic world, basketball is banned and its non-existence is under the supervision of Michael Jordan, making sure that no one will ever play B-Ball again. However, there is one man who can save B-ball. And that man was the one who destroyed it: Charles Barkley.

In Barkley, Shut Up and Jam: Gaiden, you control former NBA star, Charles Barkley, on his quest to stop the terrorist organization, B.L.O.O.D.M.O.S.E.S., and bring basketball back to its former glory, in this Japanese-styled freeware RPG.

The game's battle system is dubbed the "B.A.B.B.Y. System". With it, enemies appear on the game field and may run at the player and attack if the player moves into their line of sight. Once a battle is initiated, each player has a number of attacks and skills they can use. Most attacks require multiple or timed button presses as in the Mario RPG series, and some of the attacks are accuracy-based, dealing more damage for more accurate hits.
