SantaBall - Christmas Tennis Game (HB) — About this game
SantaBall turns a two-player paddle contest into Christmas-themed tennis, with each player using a candy cane to return the ball. Where the ball contacts the paddle changes its outgoing angle, making the next return useful for more than keeping the rally alive. The game offers four ball speeds and six rebound angles, and the first player to reach nine points wins. Choosing a comfortable speed and aiming the return gives the simple match its main decisions.
