### 5/5 — I love this! Just two suggestions

*2025-03-05*

I love this app. I love that you can explore the tourney history, simulate tournaments, and pick brackets. But I have a few suggestions. I think it’d be great if you could have an option to simulate brackets all the way back to 1939. And pick brackets back to that same time. My other suggestion is to have an option to make our own brackets and then simulate them. It’d be great and it’d bring me a lot more joy while on this app. Other than that though. Great game. Thank you for making such an incredible app!

**Developer response:** Thanks for the great review.  The reason we don't offer simulations of seasons prior to 1985 is that there aren't any advanced statistics available to rate the teams for a meaningful result.  However we are seriously looking at supporting the creation of customized tournaments, and will consider the simulation of these user brackets at that time.

### 5/5 — 👍🏽

*2025-02-07, version 1.5.0*

Love the app. How often does it update?

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2024-03-24*

This app is amazing. Basically Perfect. The only complaint is the speed sometimes is slow like the typing speed and the loading speed is slow, but other than that it’s perfect. I do have a suggestion: it would be cool if they have every conference tournament too.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the review. The issues you point out are things we would like to improve. Typing in the various search bars is something we improved in the 1.4.3 release but remains slower than it should be due to software issues beyond our control. Startup time is a bit slow, particularly when launching a new version for the first time because your saved brackets and settings need to be restored. We’ll continue to try to polish these things. We are committed to improving upon perfection! ;-)

### 4/5 — Updated Teams for 2024 Tournament

*2024-03-18, version 1.4.2*

Got this app last year everything about it is amazing , the only thing I would like is a update for the now selected teams for the tournament as some are incorrect

### 5/5 — We need a college football

*2023-11-13, version 1.3.12*

I love this app and I use it all the time but I really want a college football to be added in this game or it could be a different game that you made and made it be bracket masters football and change this one into bracket masters basketball but I love this app but I want a college football.

### 4/5 — Add one thing to get to 5 stars

*2023-03-12, version 1.3.7*

This is amazing and perfect expect I would love to have the ability to change the teams in the bracket in the projected and old brackets to be able to see what if a different team won their league or a team was seeded differently that would be cool otherwise amazing app

### 5/5 — The best stats updated very often

*2023-02-22, version 1.3.5*

This is the best stat book and by the way I am not a robot I am a real Pearson and this app shows a lot. Thank you for the tremendous review!

### 5/5 — Great App! New Feature Suggestion

*2023-01-29, version 1.3.3*

First I want to say I really enjoy using the app, it’s a great way to look at the tournament history! A feature I’ve always thought would be neat would be a feature that allows you to create your own bracketology, meaning for the current season you can choose any team to be in any seed and be in any matchup. Just wanted to suggest this because I’ve been wanting to have an easier way of making bracketologies as a big college hoops fan haha. Thanks!

### 4/5 — Conference tournaments

*2022-08-05, version 1.2.12.20404*

Could you guys maybe add conference tournaments and picks for conference tournaments

### 5/5 — Amazing app, but two ideas for potential additions

*2022-05-16, version 1.2.12.20404*

I thoroughly love this apps and everything you guys have done with it. But there are things I think would be awesome additions to the overall app.

In the Monte Carlo portion, we should be able to click on a team and see the certain brackets that they won. For example if I simulated the 2022 bracket and see that 12 seeded Richmond won the tournament, if I click on the wins column for that team it will take me to the full bracket, showing me how they won( who they played, how many points they won by, etc.)

Lastly, I feel like a custom tournament should be added. It could be either we select a certain year and fill the tournament with any team who played basketball in that particular year. Or it should be a custom tournament of teams from any year. Either option would be fantastic for the app.

I’ll be extremely happy and honored if you read my review and take into consideration the ideas I threw out. Hope you have a fantastic day!!!

### 4/5 — Womens

*2022-04-16, version 1.2.12.20404*

You should add womens brackets in this

### 5/5 — Just one thing you have to fix

*2022-04-13, version 1.2.12.20404*

Honestly I’m speechless this app is amazing but just one thing
When I pulled up the history in 1945 Oklahoma State won two championships but it says that they’ve won four championships so please fix this besides that five stars

**Developer response:** Thank you for the excellent review.  And we appreciate the bug report -- we love users with sharp eyes.  I was able to replicate this problem, but only once, so it's a weird, sporadic one.  We'll have a fix in the next release.  Any other bugs you happen upon can be reported via email or our scrutinous dot net web site forum.

### 4/5 — Great game

*2022-03-08, version 1.2.7.20227*

I wish you could view all ncaa teams, not just the ones who made the tourny and see what they did each year. It be cool if you can see NIT results and conference tourny results. I like that you have the scrapped conferences and I wish you could include more teams that went down a level in those conferences. I also wish you could create your own brackets and see the rosters for other teams

### 4/5 — Why not

*2022-03-03, version 1.2.7.20227*

I like the but I wish you could make your own matches like you are sim the torment you can pick the teams in it I feel like that would make the game amazing and awesome hope you can add that you can pick the teams playing and sim it this game is awesome with this it will be way way way more awesome please add

### 5/5 — dub

*2022-01-28, version 1.2.4.0123*

I love how you can sim you should make it so you can do different overalls for the teams

### 1/5 — Game is bad

*2021-12-08, version 1.1.11.0406*

The games bad you can’t make your own bracket

### 1/5 — Lacking Creativity.

*2019-06-30*

When I saw this app, I was thinking “This app might be as good as the other tournament makers” but it is not as good as the others. Although you can decide the winners of games but you can’t make your own teams and that defeats the purpose of a tournament maker because you’re supposed to be able to create a tournament, create the teams and make the results of the games. Just make sure you add something like creative or sandbox mode where you can make your own teams in the next update. If this is in alpha/beta or Early Access then forget what I have written.

### 1/5 — USELESS

*2019-03-18, version 1.0.4*

This app is useless. 2019 tournament teams brackets are shown incorrectly from previous year! Other than this review, there’s no other way to contact the developer. Great concept, but useless to prepare for tournament. I’d give it zero stars if it were possible.

### 2/5 — Down arrow doesn’t work

*2022-03-01, version 1.2.6.0213*

When making picks, it doesn’t let me go down

### 2/5 — more options

*2019-02-09, version 1.0.1*

maybe make a mode to sim a season with your own team? if that’s possible i’d give it more stars. it would be a fun management game for your own team

### 3/5 — Makes my phone so hot

*2025-03-18, version 1.5.2*

I love the metrics and all the information, it’s honestly amazing to have all in one place, but for some reason it makes my phone catch on fire and perform very slow, if there’s any way to fix or improve on that the app would be a 10/10.

### 3/5 — Love it

*2021-08-18, version 1.1.11.0406*

I love it but can we up date some of the teams in the conference. Like Marquette is still in the conference usa and big East .

### 3/5 — Stupid game

*2020-03-23, version 1.0.11*

Every time I tried to do my pick and it wouldn’t work every Time I press the button it would show me A glance at the round of  32  for about A Second and that was it and I never got to do The picks sense then

### 4/5 — 4 stars. Would be 5 if it wasn’t for this thing

*2026-03-14, version 1.6.4*

I love this app. It’s great for simulating, picking, and looking at historical data. However. This is a 4 star because of the ads. I can’t sim 4 brackets without it giving me an ad. If you can fix this it would be an easy 5 stars

### 4/5 — Next level

*2025-11-23, version 1.6.0*

I give you a four stars because it is the best Bracket ever. However, it could definitely be developed making a custom bracket would be awesome If you could do a certain year. Pick any team from that year to put in that would be awesome. I think it to at least make a prototype to  at least try it.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-04-16, version 1.6.6*

This is the best bracket data for historical records and I love it just two side notes: Long Beach state is not know as “49ers” anymore as they are “Beach” also I don’t think this review sent but It’d be a cool feature to add to each team or itleast the big team their top rival.

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-04-12, version 1.6.6*

This app satisfies all my needs I love it and use it everyday

### 5/5 — Love

*2026-04-03, version 1.6.5*

Love this.

I would like the same for NCAA Football, NFL Football, and MLB. Make MLB your last priority as MLB is messed up with no salary cap!

Update 4/2/26… Can we pay please to get rid of the ads? How about $3 lifetime.

Actually do not ever do
MLB. I will never go to or watch an MLB game again!

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-02-28, version 1.6.4*

This app is honestly so good for finding historical team data for march madness. Being able to see every teams history in the tournament, how many times they’ve made it, and historical brackets is so nice.

### 5/5 — Awesome app

*2026-02-15, version 1.6.3*

Awesome app it’s really good to use for college basketball but you should make a way to do a custom bracket.

### 5/5 — Love

*2026-01-12, version 1.6.1*

Love this.

I would like the same for NCAA Football, NFL Football, and MLB. Make MLB your last priority as MLB is messed up with no salary cap!

### 5/5 — I will keep this app forever

*2025-12-13, version 1.6.0*

When I first got this app I loved making brackets immediately and I never had any app better than this before.

### 5/5 — Two teams to be added

*2025-04-19, version 1.5.4*

In south land two teams named NW State and SLU are in south land but not in the game

### 5/5 — Good but two suggestions

*2025-04-06*

Ok so I love the game but I have two suggestions the one I like the most is if users could create there own custom bracket with teams of their choice and being able to pick their seed the second is where you can turn off when you get a pick wrong or right, basically  you just pick without the green or red showing

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2025-03-23, version 1.5.2*

I’ve been using this app since 2020 and I love it one of the best bracket apps I’ve used there’s always Been one feature I’ve wanted and it’s a bracket builder so we can make our Own hypothetical matchups
