I am really good at it too. Great game! ### 4/5 — Pretty good *2014-09-13, version 1.1* Pretty good game but it can be sensitive. So let's say u swipe in line with the net sometimes it will go way off. ### 3/5 — Easy *2014-08-27* This game is waayyyyyy too easy. I don't even remember the last time someone beat me, I'll even stop shooting and watch the other person play ### 5/5 — The game *2014-08-21* This game is amazing I love this game to death man and it feels great to relax and play this game it's fun and addicting I never lose ### 5/5 — AirJordan23 *2014-08-20* Awesome game but every time I win it tells me that I lost but I didn't lose. ### 5/5 — toop *2014-08-14* tooooooooop tooooop toooooop même si je l ai pas encore installé ### 3/5 — What's the difference? *2014-07-23* New balls, but the same game as before. ### 5/5 — SUPER COOOOOOL *2014-07-23* Extra jeux je vous le recommande ;) ### 4/5 — good *2014-07-16, version 1.1* its good ### 4/5 — Basketball showdown *2014-07-16, version 1.1* Fun game to play others ### 4/5 — Great *2014-07-14, version 1.1* Nice game ### 5/5 — Awesome *2014-07-10* Runs better than first one ### 5/5 — Add me please I will add you back *2014-07-10, version 1.1* This is my friend code for Basketball Showdown Pro: 9B4RXD ### 5/5 — Great! *2014-07-08, version 1.1* I always loved this app, still love it! Simple and fun! ### 5/5 — I like *2014-07-08, version 1.1* I really like ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 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 ### 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 ### 1/5 — I hated it *2015-05-24* Free version is way better. Graphics are just terrible and it is confusing. ### 1/5 — Basket *2014-10-07* Aucun intérêt ### 1/5 — DONT GET IT *2014-06-17* The seasons are terrible it makes you go against all pro balls when you have a rookie or trash ball. Once your in the championships it makes you go against fully upgraded master balls and champ balls. Then once you lose in championships you start all over just to get back up and lose again with a crappy ball. I will rate 5 once you make the single player balls based on the ball you have. Take this suggestion to thought, after you do this it will be a great game ### 1/5 — 😕 *2014-04-30, version 1.1* The other ball keeps hitting my ball just as it is going into the net ### 1/5 — F**ked up *2014-04-28, version 1.1* DO NOT DOWNLOAD SO RIGED AND UNREALISTIC AND IF YOU SWIPE STRAIGHT IT GOES 50k OF WHOOP WHOOP ### 1/5 — Terrible *2014-04-26, version 1.1* Frustrating and dumb. Creators have to do a better job. ### 2/5 — Alright *2014-04-30, version 1.1* I hoped that u had a player and would actually play basketball but you just shoot the ball through the hoop. Otherwise it is still a good game ### 2/5 — Okay *2014-04-29, version 1.1* The whole upgrading a basketball thing is cool but doesn't make much difference when playing. Controls can be very inaccurate and frustrating when going for the shot. I suggest trying this out but if your looking for a game to last a good while find something else. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 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. ### 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. ### 5/5 — Z👍 *2014-10-24, version 1.1* 💯💯💯😭👍 ### 5/5 — This Game Is AWESOME!!! *2014-10-09, version 1.1* Pick ur state and have fun shooting hoops ### 5/5 — Awesome *2014-09-29, version 1.1* This is a really cool game. ### 5/5 — My Friend code *2014-09-20, version 1.1* UQ7UW4 Nice game by the way Gamecenter account is --Halpher-- ### 5/5 — Amazing *2014-09-19, version 1.1* Get it!!! It's super fun!!! ### 5/5 — Great Game but, *2014-09-05* The game is great and every thing, but for some reason the game reset all of my progress after my prize money every 24 hours appeared again. Please fix this problem. ### 5/5 — Nah haha *2014-09-01* Pro version players are weak. You want to practice your skills? Go to the first version and play online. Then come back to pro and you'll gon feel like a freakin warrior coming back from a thousand battles. LOL ### 5/5 — Fun *2014-08-26, version 1.1* It's fun for a while. It's chill --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
