NBA Jam: Tournament Edition improves on the original with several enhancements, maintaining its iconic 2 vs 2 street basketball gameplay while introducing a "Tournament Mode" where players can challenge all NBA teams to win the championship. The core of the game lies in its highly exaggerated and unrealistic physics engine. Players can jump incredibly high, performing gravity-defying dunks. When a player scores consecutively, they enter a "fire" state, significantly increasing their shooting accuracy and granting them unlimited stamina. The game's controls are simple and direct, focusing on fast offensive and defensive transitions through steals, passes, and dunks. Furthermore, this version significantly increases the number of unlockable secret codes and hidden Non-NBA characters, such as game designers and celebrities, greatly enhancing the game's fun and replay value.
