The gameplay is very simple and doesn't have a steep learning curve. To find an opponent, you can log onto the integrated BasketDudes chat feature that allows you to organize games against random opponents. Thanks to the diversity of choice provided by BasketDudes, you can create different types of teams: defensive, offensive, balanced, based around a star player etc.
Creating your team consists of choosing players, the kit they wear and the badge of your five players and even your stadium which you can improve and extend depending on how many points you win when playing. Later on you will be able to create additional teams if you want to. To begin with, after you login, the game will automatically take you to the team creation screen.
