Space Jam

Space Jam is a sports video game published by Acclaim Entertainment and released for the Sega Saturn in 1996/1997.

Plot
Space Jam follows the plot of the film in which Mr. Swackhammer wants to enslave the Looney Tunes to work at his interstellar amusement park, Moron Mountain and sends his minions, the Nerdlucks to go and kidnap them.

Bugs, Daffy, Sylvester, Porky and the rest of the gang trick the Nerdlucks into giving them a chance to defend their freedom by challenging them to a game of their choosing. Due to the Nerdlucks being short and unfit, they decide on a game of basketball. The Nerdlucks travel to Earth and steal the essences of the best basketball players, fusing with it and becoming huge terrifying monsters or 'Monstars'.

Desperate, Bugs and the gang kidnap retired basketball legend Michael Jordan in order to play for them and give them a fighting chance.

This game focuses on the match for their freedom.

gameplay
Before the match begins, players choose which team they want to be on, either the Tune Squad or the Monstars and then select their players from their appropriate teams.

After this the Tunesquad player engages in a minigame in which Daffy Duck must obtain Michael Jordan's sneakers from his home whilst avoiding the Jordan's pet dog, Charles, whilst the Monstars throw squeaky toys that can trip him up, and cause the dog to attack him.

Once the mini game is over, the match begins. Players can do the expected basketball gameplay such as shooting the ball, going for rebounds, stealing the ball and slam dunks.

In between quarters, the players engage in other mini games such as Speedy Gonzales' Crazy Space Race in which players will compete to guide rocket ships around a maze, Yosemite Sam's Shoot Out the Lights which allows players to practice their shooting or the Monstar Team to practice blocks, Lola Bunny's Hall of Hijinx in which she and a Monstar member will compete to shoot basketballs at cut outs of Looney Tune and Monstar members for points.

Upon returning to the match each quarter, players can substitute their team mates out and return to the court for regular 3 on 3 basketball gameplay.

At half time there is another minigame where Bugs Bunny must obtain Michael Jordan's Secret Stuff(actually water) to trick the Looney Tunes into believing they're powered up. The Monstar team's goal is to blow Bugs up with bombs or balls.

After this players return to the game once more where they can make substitutes if they so wish, and play for the third and fourth quarters. There is yet another mini game played in between these quarters. The winner is whoever has the most points in the basketball game at the end of full time.

Using multitaps, it is possible to have a full six players engaging in a 3 on 3 basketball match.

Lastly, each character has a unique slam dunk ability that will also help them foil opponents and keep the ball rolling.
