Play Now right away or make a coach, take over a college basketball program. Build it into a dynasty, one offensive possession at a time. ARCADE HOOPS, MARCH DRAMA Fast, fun, simple retro hoops action. Time up your shot and let it rip.

Easy to pick up, and the endgame plays like the tournament, do you have that clutch gene? RUN THE WHOLE PROGRAM Recruit high schoolers or college players through the transfer portal, but be careful or your own players may end up there too!

Build the squad, climb the rankings, and cut down the nets. OWN THE LEAGUE Pick any of the 364 teams across 32 conferences, then make any changes you see fit: rename and recolor any program, redesign the jerseys, and create your own coach. Run your dynasty for decades: recruit, graduate, rebuild, repeat. The donors are restless. The freshmen are promising. March doesn't wait. Can you hang a banner in the rafters?

The latest version (1.0.11) should have patched this, if not, Please send me over an email support@b3bstudios.com ### 1/5 — Not Retro Bowl Basketball *2026-08-13* Just get Hoopland and thank me later. This game isn’t even better than Hoop Tactics. No dribble moves. The shot meter is bad. The ball physics are worse. And you can’t win as a bad team because of how the gameplay is. The players are too big and can’t even set screens. They just wander the court randomly. The “Moments” gameplay is also terrible and favors the cpu regardless of the overall of either team. The COU gains way more momentum than you and the moments it picks are just god awful. And since Hoopland exists, I’m not playing this barebones gameplay for a whole game. They need to make MAJOR improvements before this game can compete and be worthy of a 4.9 star rating (the reviews have to be fake. You’ll agree if you play this) this game is like an Alpha version if anything. I hope it improves or it will never compete with Hoopland **Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback, I appreciate you taking the time to leave a review, I'll be hard at work to improve the things you point to. While also improving the UX, so players actually know that there are dribble moves in the game. The game will certainly improve, and I'd like to consult with you about exactly how to improve it best! Please send me an email to support@b3bstudios.com or dm me on reddit: b3bstudios ### 5/5 — Best game ever *2026-08-13, version 1.0.10* The game is really great but could you make a mycareer mode? ### 5/5 — Unexpected masterpiece? *2026-08-12* To be honest when I first saw this on the App Store I thought it was just like all the other SIM college basketball games, but I was wrong. This came to me is exactly what I’ve been looking for a game where I get to rebuild any college basketball program, but also getting a little bit of gameplay and being able to play with the players I develop. Is the gameplay perfect no but this game is like a basketball Sim game mixed with arcade gameplay. This game is a must play and I hope the developer is like who planned and constantly gives undates to this game and is not like the retro bowl! ### 5/5 — Great game! *2026-08-10, version 1.0.10* Very smooth and very fun ## Frequently asked questions about Bit College Basketball ### Does Bit College Basketball have ads?
