### 4/5 — Excellent game

*2026-03-28, version 1.46*

Okay I creator of this game truly understands what we needed as track and field fans, I really cannot say how much I love this game, but what I need now is Career mode, and podium medalling and finally group medalling as well…. That’s all that’s left. My Pb are out of this world lol and hope as the game grows it recognizes I play everyday

### 5/5 — Love this game, day one fan here!

*2025-09-18*

I been a fan since day one. I watched this game grow from those little Roblox looking characters to the up to date realistic looking characters. This is an awesome game especially for those who ran track and I’m a track and field coach myself. Keep up the good work. Can you bring back the relay tournament. And can you do an 800 medley 100,100,200,400!! Thanks John for keeping this game going.

### 5/5 — Change replay

*2025-07-26, version 1.34*

Love the game but can you change replay so you can change angles while watching and switch the people you are watching and remove the on your marks set and instead just start replay at set

### 4/5 — Quite a good game, needs one major fix

### 5/5 — This A good game and all but

*2025-06-16*

What happened to the relay champs and sprint medley because those were good to and there should be new hairstyles that are trending and but that is it for now and the other people they could hit the hurdles to and there should be hawk downs on the relays and there should be JV and varsity not all those other numbers there should just be one and in that on it should be JV and varsity JV should be the slow you the Varsity should be the fast one not just VI and stuff like that is you do the things I said this game would be so much better and why is there no indoor you should have put do and you indoor it should say indoor mode outdoor mode

### 5/5 — Excellent Game

*2025-06-10, version 1.32*

I love this game.  Been playing it for years.  I am just not as good at it like most.  I cant seem to make my runners run faster.  I can go up to Level 4 and still compete but Level 3 and up they kick my butt.  Is there a special numbers on speed, stamina and acceleration to make my runners faster.  I have been messing with the numbers and still not good.  But the game is great and I play it everyday.  The best track games I have ever played.  I love relays.  Is there a way you can put all the relays on the tournament?  You are awesome for making this game.  I have a lot of fun.

### 1/5 — Issue’s

*2022-04-15*

I believe this game is fairly new, Issues so far with customization, trying to change some of the variables will cause the game to crash, hight is fine hair and face as well, skin tone doesn’t change on the character, so far everything will crash and close the game. I haven’t tried the actual game play yet but this part definitely needs to be fixed. Excited to have all the customization ready.

### 2/5 — Please add 300m hurdles and other throwing events also I don’t like the new update.

*2026-07-01, version 1.49*

This game is very fun i just wish they would add more events please. But with the recent update it’s messed up a few events for example in the hurdles you are no longer able to reach full speed when going over them. Mainly in the 110/100m hurdles. Also the speed is jacked up as well. I actually liked the fitness thing please fix the game! :(

### 2/5 — About the update

*2025-11-08, version 1.39*

I don’t know the creator did but I can’t even in the game anymore please my speed is nerfed can you please fix that

### 3/5 — Game

*2026-05-18, version 1.46*

In terms of the game it is good.. animation wise and movement is pretty accurate, just need to be able to make progression more realistic in terms of track racing. When you max out you can’t really hit sub 10s which in my opinion should be able to with more attribute coins for characters maybe make experience a contribution to how good your character can be

### 3/5 — Field events

*2025-08-08, version 1.34*

The field events do not work.

### 3/5 — OK

*2024-08-20, version 1.25*

The game is good but it won’t let me play. It just glitches

### 3/5 — A good game but

*2024-04-14, version 1.17*

The update or whatever is not letting me get the 55,000 can u fix that

### 3/5 — Games

*2022-06-08, version 1.04*

When are you guys gonna update the game so that we can play tournament mode it always stop working

### 4/5 — The best track mobile game I’ve ever played

*2026-08-12, version 1.50*

The game is great solid game play however, as great as it is it has a few flaws. Given I play this game almost every day and even recommend it to friends I know like track games I think my issues are valid and should be fixed. For like a month + now the 110 and 100 hurdles has been very poor for no reason I went from running 14.01 to 17.17 at my best. I’ve maxed out with my xp and I’m still not able to go faster than 10.5 with the men and 11.40 with the females which I only did like twice and it’s like for all the events. It’s as if I can’t go faster than a 15 years old. I love the camera angles and the tournament. You guys should do more to push this games and try and get a pc version. Idk if u play the game much but please do and Vix those bugs

### 4/5 — Fix Player Speed

*2026-07-23, version 1.50*

I understand the game is challenging on S level but have it to where we can really compete with the cpu and give us more upgrades to get faster

*2026-08-16, version 1.51*
