### 1/5 — Fix win rankings

*2021-09-04*

App is good, but i gave it 1 star because the rankings on most wins is rediculous, there is no way a player can win more than a quadrillion wins even though you play this game straight for 2 years with no brreaks what so ever
Please fix

### 5/5 — Score

*2020-07-19*

This game stops on score 18 and I tried many times more than ten minutes and didn't go further in score. So please whoever designed or controls the game fix the problem because it is very fun game.

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money

*2019-03-24*

This game is so bad and it is unfair and if I shoot the ball to the right it goes to the left so bad! Terrible and waste of time not fair and not right

### 5/5 — App is better than the original

*2016-08-22*

You should buy this Basketball Showdown because the original one has so many ads it gets pretty annoying. When you buy this one you do not have any ads at all and it's great. It also has the green ball unlike in the other version. I totally recommend this app more than the other Basketball Showdown apps.

### 1/5 — I hated it

*2015-05-24*

Free version is way better. Graphics are just terrible and it is confusing.

### 4/5 — I'm the best in the world at this game

*2015-01-07, version 1.8.6*

Would like to see bigger playoffs like, a 64 man bracket, that'd be awesome!!!😁👍
