Beach ‘n Ball is a competitive sports simulation game released for the Game Boy Color in 2001. Developed by Carapace Game Development and published by Infogrames, this European release is identical to the North American title Power Spike: Pro Beach Volleyball. The game brings professional beach volleyball to the handheld system, featuring real players and matches set across various international locations.
How to Play
The objective is to score points by successfully grounding the ball on the opponent’s side of the net or forcing them into making an error. Using standard Game Boy Color controls mapped to the browser, use the D-pad (arrow keys) to move your player around the sand, and the A and B buttons (Z/X) to serve, pass, set, and spike the ball. Press Start (Enter) to pause the game.
Tips
Timing is crucial for successful spikes and blocks at the net. Pay close attention to the ball’s shadow on the sand to anticipate its landing spot, ensuring your player is in the correct position to receive and set up an offensive play.
