Let x be the number of games they played last season.
The problem states that Ahmadullah's basketball team will play 12 games more than 13 the number of games they played last season, so the equation is 13x + 12 = 21.
Subtracting 12 from both sides of the equation, we get 13x = 9.
Dividing both sides of the equation by 13, we get x = 9/13 = 0.6923076923076923.
Therefore, they played 0 or 1 whole games last season, which would round to 0 or 1 games.
Since 0 games is not one of the options, they must have played 1 game last season.
Therefore, the answer is 1 game.
