What is this?

AND ONE is a solo basketball court role-playing game!

It has all the familiar trappings of a solo ttrpg (single player tabletop role playing game) with dice rolling and progress tracking on the sidelines - but the basketball games themselves are played out by yourself, against yourself, on an actual court.

Games last forty minutes (plus breaks), and this is your handbook. With just a basketball and your phone at your local neighbourhood court, you'll be able to play a complete one-player version of basketball. And the great thing about playing by yourself is that your opponent is also at a similiar playing ability ... because it IS you!

Solo RPG meets IRL Sport

AND ONE is not only a fantastic way to have fun without the fear of letting teammates down or embarrassing yourself - your skills will also only get better over time. It's a fun twist to add to your own basketball practice sessions.

You'll be surprised just how quickly the scoreline and modified rules keep you on your toes, giving you all the similiar feelings of the real deal, full of game-changing decisions and clutch plays. Hitting that buzzer beating three-pointer never felt so good!

Break a sweat

AND ONE is a game absolutely no one asked for ... so I made it! Turns out there were people out there just like me, who wanted an excuse to play basketball by themselves - who would have thought? Maybe that now includes you!

Wow. This sounds like it could really be neat. I'd like to know just a little bit more about how the game interjects with an actual ball and hoop. Is it possible to be given a little bit of an introduction or even like a teaser trailer before spending the money on it? My email is lakes1871@gm#il.com if that helps. The # is actually a lower case a. I did that for obvious reasons. Thanks!

Hey Lasher, thanks for reaching out :)

Great question! To someone watching, it’ll look like you’re shooting hoops and practicing moves - but mentally you’re keeping score (with "guardrail" rules to simulate playing another team). So you’re always shooting, but switching between offensive and defensive sets:

  • On offense, you're shooting to score points for your team.
  • On defense, you're shooting to stop points against your team.
  • Ball bounce back to you / manage to catch it before it touches the ground? Offensive rebound.
  • Fumble the ball / does it bounce out of bounds? Turnover.
  • Have a fav spot to shoot from? You can't twice in a row, the opposition knows your tricks.
  • Getting tired and missing shots? Call a timeout to run the clock.
  • Have fouls to give? Use them at strategic times to make every point earned.

The web app lets you keep track of your score, home court advantage, and luck. You can optionally use the Tournament Bracket PDF and play other nearby "teams".

Hope that helps explain it a little! (The original Kickstarter page might give you a flavour of what I set out when making it). All combined, it’s my little excuse to explore the neighbourhood for hidden courts and have a fun way to play a one player version of my favourite game 🤗 🏀
