You’re going to spend the next 3 weeks of your time on this app playing teams rated 90+ while your bronze players get worked over. Or you can spend actual money to maybe get a somewhat decent team and still lose. ### 3/5 — Needs Work ASAP *2026-07-04, version 4.1.6* loved the game as a kid and super glad to see life back into it. HOWEVER very bugged in its current state. your money can just randomly jump around and at this point idk how much i actually have or if i’m in the negatives. constant memory issues of what cards are owned which often leads to an error and the game crashing. I have hope ### 2/5 — Bugs *2026-06-29, version 4.1.6* Coins and big bucks always glitching and telling wrong amount and sometimes saying I have negative cash. Also needs huge update. Needs new stuff added to the game cause it hasn’t been updated in like five years. It needs a whole big update. ### 2/5 — Okay game *2026-06-03, version 4.1.6* Trying to get back into the game but lost my team because the only way to sign in is by a stupid key code as if I'm trying to recover a crypto account or something. Like wtf?? ### 3/5 — Play vs CPU *2026-05-04, version 4.1.5* Why can’t we play a season mode against the CPU? Only online so we need to wait a long time to find players. Cause the game is cool ### 4/5 — Happy to see kid friendly app *2026-03-19, version 4.1.5* With all the apps available that are not appropriate for kids but are games with misleading information that makes them appear safe and secure to protect children while on their devices. I’m happy to see that there is more apps being developed that are much better for children users ### 4/5 — My essay about big win *2026-03-14, version 4.1.5* So the game is great but make so you can report things ### 2/5 — Offline mode *2026-03-08, version 4.1.5* I want offline mode ### 2/5 — Greedy *2026-03-02, version 4.1.5* Do we really need to run ads after every game? At least give us an option to get rid of ads. Just comes off as money hungry especially considering that the last update was 2 YEARS AGO. ### 2/5 — very laggy *2026-02-24, version 4.1.5* very laggy couldn’t even get in the game to make a new team ### 3/5 — Skill based *2026-02-12, version 4.1.5* I just stared playing and I’m playing teams that are way better than me we need skill based matchmaking ### 4/5 — Can’t leave the game *2025-12-20, version 4.1.5* Reading the title your probably like, “you’re probably addicted to this if you can’t leave how is this one star?” But hear me out, after I left the game to go on YouTube, it all seemed normal, then, when I go back to play, the screen is thinner than my chance of getting girls, I tried everything to get the screen back to normal, but nothing worked. This is why I give ts 1 star ### 1/5 — Odds make no sense *2025-12-16, version 4.1.5* For starters, the game barely works. Half the time I try to play it reboots constantly due to an error. Furthermore, my team has superstars at all positions, I am ranked higher than any team I match up with and yet I still consistently lose to teams half as good as mine. Frustrating game to play. Don’t waste hours trying to build the perfect team because it won’t be worth it. It will still all be a gamble in the end whether or not you win or lose. And absolutely do not spend real money on this game. Play in a tournament or two and even if you place terribly, you’ll get some big bucks to start buying packs with. ### 2/5 — Need a update *2025-12-15, version 4.1.5* So many bugs ### 1/5 — Cant play the game *2025-12-06, version 4.1.5* I would love to play this game. But whenever I press for some reason when in press "new team" nothing happens. ### 1/5 — Used to be good *2025-11-24, version 4.1.5* Game used to be good now it’s just full of ads, one after every match kinda sucks now don’t waste your time ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Does not work *2026-08-01, version 4.1.6* I get the server messages. Even after I delete and reinstall it, same message. ### 1/5 — Too Glitched to Play *2026-07-01, version 4.1.6* DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME!!This game is horrible. It glitches so bad you can’t play it. If you get lucky, and it happens to actually load a game, your achievements (coins and dollars) randomly get jumbled. It sometimes shows negative money, the next time you play, it shows more than you actually have. Now that part sounds good, but it won’t let you spend them. It doesn’t show all of the boost cards you have, so if you actually get the game to load, you can’t use your cards. In a game that requires you to play for a while to build your team, it is just too unbearable to sit through. Seems to be a theme with the Big Win games in general. ### 1/5 — You can’t even play *2026-05-17, version 4.1.5* I got this game to play some fun hockey but it turns out. You just watch you team get destroyed. Boring! ### 1/5 — Dumb *2026-05-04, version 4.1.5* It is fun. But it’s possibly the most pay to win game ever. Also the “earn free big bucks” option is a rip off, it makes you download other games and complete objectives. I completed one and didn’t get a single big buck, total scam ### 1/5 — Hendrix *2026-04-20, version 4.1.5* I can’t even get my team to play. ### 1/5 — Does not move past privacy page *2026-03-25, version 4.1.5* I tried resetting my iPad and it does not past the privacy page ### 1/5 — Not great *2026-02-19, version 4.1.5* Good overall game but I find it so hard to win against teams from the start cause I’m rated 43 overall and they are 97. Please fix it ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2026-02-07, version 4.1.5* Ridiculous , just trying to play and have fun and even put money into the game and all I see are ads ads ads. What a waste of my time and money . Please add an option to remove ads from the game even with money or something please ### 1/5 — wtf *2026-01-24, version 4.1.5* All I see is a grey screen like wtf,glitch?I mean there is music but that’s all ### 1/5 — So bad. *2026-01-03, version 4.1.5* This game never works, but when it does, which is very little, it is ok. I don’t like this game. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great Game *2026-06-13, version 4.1.6* I’ve played this game for what feels like forever, it’s a great game fun to play but there is always been something I wish it had. I wish there was a game mode where you could play a season with your team maybe not 82 games but still a good amount then playoffs and a chance to win the Stanley cup after. I also thought it would be fun to have two lines but I wouldn’t be sure how that would work. ### 5/5 — Kaion *2026-02-18, version 4.1.5* Kaion ### 5/5 — Kaion *2026-01-16, version 4.1.5* Kaion ### 5/5 — Please remake the same exact way *2026-01-14, version 4.1.5* Please remake this game the same way I miss it and I can’t play it anymore ### 5/5 — Big win NHL *2025-07-29, version 4.1.5* Please please please bring back big win nhl, or make a big win hockey similar to us ### 5/5 — FOR EVERYONE COMPLAINING ABOUT GAME CRASHING: *2025-05-30, version 4.1.5* I previously wrote a comment like this but it seemingly went into the void. Emailing support will not do anything, because Hothead Games went out of business in December 2024. Nobody has been maintaining the servers on their games so inevitably, all their games will be completely offline very soon. ### 5/5 — Fun *2025-03-06, version 4.1.5* It’s a really fun game although it is kind of old and I think if they update it it could be a lot better ### 5/5 — good game *2025-02-21, version 4.1.5* idk if there’s a team that is full bronze and u have a 99 ovr team and u lose thats JS dumb. anyways decent game and I had 1000 big bucks and I didn’t get a superstar ### 5/5 — I can’t click the proceed button for privacy *2024-12-02, version 4.1.5* It won’t work please fix it this is my favourite game dude please ### 5/5 — Best game I ever witnessed and play with my own eyes and hands *2024-11-15, version 4.1.5* This is the best game ever I love it and I play it everyday!!!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
