The game is sort of like a Pong type game mixed in with a baseball type theme. Sounds weird? Well, it is ... but it's fun to play, despite its simple premise. Basically, all you do is catch baseballs. In practice, this works like a slightly enhanced version of the old Kaboom! game on Atari 2600.Catch If You Can is a classic DOS-based arcade game released in the early 1990s. It is a simple yet engaging action game that focuses on quick reflexes and hand-eye coordination. The gameplay revolves around catching falling objects, with the difficulty increasing as the game progresses. The core of Catch If You Can is based on catching falling objects using a moving character (usually represented as a basket or a similar object). The player must move the basket left and right to catch the falling items. If a player misses an item, they lose points or face a penalty. Objective: The primary objective is to catch as many objects as possible within a time limit or until a certain number of missed objects accumulate. The items can vary in nature (e.g., fruits, balls, or other themed objects), and some might be worth more points than others. As the game progresses, the objects fall faster, making it harder to catch them, thus increasing the game's difficulty. Controls: Keyboard: The player uses the arrow keys to move the basket or catcher left and right along the bottom of the screen. Mouse (if applicable): In some versions, the mouse could also be used to move the catcher.
