### 3/5 — Nice concept

*2021-04-05, version 1.3*

Game is good but only problem is despite how many stats you get the ai is always several stats ahead of you. And What makes worse you have limited boost perks (3-3). While ai can boost anytime with out loosing theirs. Also if you swing too soon there is no second swing so it’s like baseball. But real badminton if you miss swing in mid air you can hit from behind you with low accuracy.  Also ai can hit deep shots and lob shots  next to the net where you can never reach In time. But we don’t get that kind of choice in various kind of hits. You just get lucky that’s all.  This game needs different kind of swings like smash,lob,and other tricky shots.  Atm it’s just hack and slash kind of game where luck and timing is the only contributing factor in winning.    Add more variety in swings and I’ll give it 5 stars.

### 1/5 — Please make it more skill based and less RNG

*2021-03-31, version 1.3*

Lots of RNG

### 1/5 — Facebook obsessed.

*2021-02-26, version 1.3*

So what’s the obsession with Facebook? I’d happily play this more but I can’t do anything without logging into facebook? Are the developers dim?

### 1/5 — Rigged for the Computer

*2021-01-04, version 1.3*

The further you advance, the further the game will go to rig the matches in favor of the computer. Don’t bother with this one, it’s nothing but pure frustration trying to win a game you’ll never be allowed to win.

### 2/5 — Meh, there are better badminton games

*2020-12-26, version 1.3*

This one relies entirely on luck. You can get 3-4 perfect hits in a row and the computer will get “almost” shots and they’ll be so much faster than your hits and even if you tap at the right time, it still says you missed. The power ups don’t work for the player (they only work for the CPUs) and you can only connect with a Facebook account.

### 3/5 — Idea is good

*2020-12-18, version 1.3*

I really like the idea of the game and how it was made the only issue is it will really only be fully enjoyable online and for me and others I think logging into facebook is buggy and I am unable to play online

### 2/5 — Glitched out

*2020-12-07, version 1.3*

This game is alright I guess other than it was glitchy when I first played it. Something with connecting Facebook I think. But today I played again and it was 3-3. I scored a point but the other player got the point and I was so confused when I didn’t serve that they scored the final point and I lost. Why would me scoring give them a point?

### 2/5 — Can’t play multiplayer

*2020-12-06, version 1.3*

It says I need to logging to Facebook to play multiplayer but it doesn’t let me logging bc it says an admin needs to allow me

### 2/5 — SCAM

*2020-12-05, version 1.3*

Forces you to log in for some reason and the energy thing is stupid

### 1/5 — Stop it

*2020-11-29, version 1.3*

Quit asking me to write a review.
