Sixty seconds on the clock, a ball at your feet and a hoop that refuses to hold still. Free Throw Frenzy unblocked gives you a dark gym, a rim on the right side of the screen and one job: score as much as possible before the buzzer.
The rim slides up and down the wall, and its sweep gets bigger and faster as the minute ticks away. Frank Force built the game with his LittleJS engine, and it runs right in the browser with no install.
How to play Free Throw Frenzy
Hit Play and the timer starts right away. Grab the ball, pull in the direction of the throw and let go. A longer pull means a stronger shot. A dotted line previews the start of the arc, but it fades out before the rim, so the finish is up to your eye. A tiny pull does nothing.
You never wait for a rebound. A fresh ball rolls in after every throw, so you can launch the next one while the last is still flying. A normal make is 2 points. A clean swish that misses both rim and board is 3, and a big banner tells you so.
Sink three in a row and you catch fire. While the flames last, every basket gives one extra point. One miss that falls off the screen ends the streak. When the buzzer sounds, balls already in the air still count, then you see your score next to your best.

Tips
- Find one power and lock it in. Use your first few throws to learn the pull length that reaches the rim, then change only the angle.
- Loft it. A tall, rainbow shot comes down into the rim instead of smacking the front edge.
- Throw ahead of the rim. The hoop keeps moving while the ball flies, so aim at the spot it is heading toward.
- Build your streak early. The rim is slowest in the first part of the minute, which is the easiest time to catch fire.
- Keep shooting while hot. Every make is worth more during a streak, so a quick good shot beats a slow perfect one.
Free Throw Frenzy questions
What counts as a swish?
A ball that drops through without touching the rim or the backboard. It scores 3 instead of 2, and an on-fire bonus adds one more on top.
Will a shot count if it lands after time runs out?
Yes. Any ball released before the buzzer finishes its flight, and if it goes in, the points are added before your final score shows.
Can I play it on a phone or tablet?
Yes. Turn the device sideways, since the game asks for landscape. Put a finger on the ball, pull toward the rim and release.
Does it remember my high score?
Your best score is saved in the browser and shows on the title screen. You can wipe it from the options menu if you want a fresh start.
