Swipeball, the latest basketball trivia game, is here and so much fun

Remember when Worlde took over pop culture for a bit and sports fans responded by creating alternative versions?

We had Poeltl for the NBA (and Gordle for the NHL, Weddle for the NFL and WARdle for the MLB) and it was an addicting time for trivia enthusiasts who follow sports.

Another option hoops fans can try if they want to get back into playing some basketball trivia is called Swipeball, from the creators of Dribble. We’ve tried it out for ourselves and it is fairly addicting.

Swipeball gives users a prompt (e.g. “averaging 8+ assists per game this season”) and a series of 20 players. Almost like on a dating app, you swipe right if you think the player on the screen fits that description (based on their performance this season) and swipe left if you do not.

On his YouTube channel, content creator Kenny Beecham shared a video of himself playing Swipeball. He also offered an insightful explanation to help understand how it all works.

You can play Swipeball through your phone on the Dribble Game mobile application.
