Description
1 player or 2 players simultaneous cooperative.
This is a tennis game with a bit of arcade action. Hitting the ball with the left had is done by pressing (B), right is (A). There are 6 characters and 3 courts to choose from. The courts are grass, clay, or hard. English is easier to perform on the hard court, so this give the advantage to the computer players. Grass makes it hard to control the ball with spin. Spin is placed one the ball by holding a direction when beginning a swing. For this reason, one can supposedly watch the computer players to see what kind of spin the put on the ball. Each player is supposed to have a specialty.
The Players
There is also an alternate version of the game with different players:
However, the alternate version of the game does not seem to make a difference in which player you choose.
In two player mode, the game is played as doubles with the team two human players against a team of two computer players. There is no player verses player mode.
Sometimes a large rat will wander onto and around the course promoting the characters to make comments. If anyone manages to hit the rat, their team will win the round.
