{{quote| ''The Great B-Ball Purge of 2041, a day so painful to some that it is referred to only as the "B-Ballnacht". Thousands upon thousands of the world's greatest ballers were massacred in a swath of violence and sports bigotry as the game was outlawed worldwide. The reason: the Chaos Dunk, a jam so powerful its mere existence threatens the balance of chaos and order. Among the few ballers and fans that survived the basketball genocide was Charles Barkley, the man capable of performing the "Verboten Jam"...'' }}
 
A freeware [[RPG]] by Tales of Game's (sic).
Line 65:
* [[Fight Woosh]]: About 20+ different wooshes, chosen at random.
* [[Flat What]]: Barkley delivers one upon seeing the "reward" for {{spoiler|turning in the F.I.N.A.L.G.U.N. to Mark.}}
* [[Fun with Acronyms]] B.L.O.O.D.M.O.S.E.S., the Statue of L.I.B.E.R.T.Y., ~[[F.A.T.E~]], and the legendary F.I.N.A.L.G.U.N. Mind, if any of these actually stand for anything, it's never elaborated upon.
* [[Furry Fandom]]: They live in the sewers of Neo New York. Surprisingly, they're actually treated pretty fairly - they're decent people (some hostility towards the "norms" aside, and that's required for the standard post-apocalypse sewer-dweller template), rather intelligent and insightful. Barkley's a dick to them, but he's a dick to ''everyone'' in this game. All in all, they come off far better here than in, say, ''[[Kingdom of Loathing]]''.
* [[Future Food Is Artificial]]: In the post-cyberpocalypse, mankind will live off of Protein Paste and [[Nostalgia Filter|Hi-C Ecto Coolers]].
Line 80:
* [[Hollywood Cyborg]]: Vinceborg is a conventional example, but there's also the Cyberdwarf, whose skin was ''replaced with basketballs'' after being injured.
* [[Idiot Ball]] - Cuchulainn's Tomb. Just... Cuchulainn's Tomb.
{{quote| "Gold... Incan Gold..."}}
* [[Involuntary Suicide Mechanism]]: This seems to kick in on {{spoiler|Vinceborg}} near the end... {{spoiler|or he killed himself on purpose}}.
* [[Irrelevant Sidequest]]: Several, such as rewriting a poem and negotiating a labor contract, much to Barkley's annoyance.
