Overall it’s a good time waster but that specific thing is what’s killing it for me but other than that it’s a good game. ### 3/5 — The Xp isn’t always given out. *2025-04-15, version 1.1.8* I’ve played over 18 seasons of practice and the amount of do I have isn’t comparative. My level isn’t increasing anymore and it’s stuck right on the bridge of lvl 10..no matter. The only thing that actually gives me cap is regular season games and there is a cap on them unfortunately so I’m getting left behind by my league due to do not being given when it states. It would be ### 3/5 — Recent bugs *2025-02-16, version 1.1.8* Up until about a week ago I been loving this game. But recently I have built a player to level 23 and the next day he is back to zero. Also my showdown keeps screwing me out of showdown tickets. Get this fixed. I’ve also put money in the game ### 3/5 — Still great but please fix the fg% *2025-02-07, version 1.1.8* I played this game a long time ago and I’ve been recently getting back into it. I like the overhauled designs of the characters, they look much better than they did last time I played which tells me y’all care at least.a little about this game. That being said, PLEASE fix the field goal percentages for players after the game. Idk if it’s just my game that’s messed up but it’s saying me and the other team are taking 350 shots in the game, which is not possible on like the 200-206 ish possesions I get. I counted how many shots my guy took vs how many it said he took and it was triple the amount that he actually took. I liked the realism of the scores/stats when I first started playing this game, and I hate seeing my players shoot 20% when Ik they didn’t take all those shots Edit: also my guide missions are messed up to I can’t get past guide mission 98, play five mini games. I try to claim the reward and it says “cannot claim reward” I honestly don’t know if this is specific to me but I would appreciate some help Edit 2: the fg% glitch seems like it’s straight up adding 100 shots on top of the like 70-80 shots each team took. My players shot a great percentage but it looks like they did terrible even thought we won by 40. PLEASE Ik I been here for like 3 days straight but it’s bothering me so much Edit 3: ok last time stg seems like the fg% is only glitched in the regular season games. My pickup percentages look fine ### 4/5 — Good game so far *2024-12-16, version 1.1.7* I like how you can do other stuff while game is on, the game design is enjoyable to watch as well. If you can fix on how team will not cheer for the opposite team during goal switch in second half, that would be awesome. ### 4/5 — Solid fun with some work needed *2024-11-26, version 1.1.6* For everyone thinking the purchased items aren’t given, check the gift box in the game. For me, I lost the announcers about 10-15 games in. Items gained after a pickup game are not showing until a restart of the game. OFS shows as DFS for me on the game screen. The trick is going to be keeping a team built after the first wave of retirees. Team progress is obvious by training and ranking up. I feel like it’s too many playoff games to try and play before the daily timer runs out. Good amount of free gold if you’re willing to watch the ads and I’m usually getting about 1k every day or two. Overall nice work, but still needs some cleaning up. ### 5/5 — 5 Star Basketball Manager Game! *2024-11-26, version 1.1.6* I would only suggest more game modes and an online multiplayer, more customization etc, overall exactly what I’m looking for in a basketball manager game….great GAME! ### 4/5 — Fun, but… *2024-11-22, version 1.1.6* This game is really fun. So fun in fact that I decided to make a financial investment. $12.99 for the team building bundle and they promised me a red token which I didn’t get. And $20 for opening the premium package and also offered me a red token which I did not get. I am hoping to either get my money back or get the red tokens that I paid for. Is there anyone in the developer group they can help me ### 2/5 — what the hell *2024-11-18, version 1.1.6* It can't be if I have a higher rating that I lose a lot of lower ratings player. You want too much money for your bundles. wouldn't play the game, mostly pay to win ### 3/5 — Good game but *2024-11-13, version 1.1.6* Love this game had it when it first and out and got a level one chip in the first two legendary hat tries but lost my old phone and had to redownload now I’m six legendary hats down and every time I’ve only got level 3 chips so I’m not happy I’m gonna have to delete the app and start again in hopes of a good start this time ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Glitch *2026-06-09, version 1.1.11* After a couple hours of playing I can’t even play a regular game now ### 1/5 — Better games with less nonsense *2025-08-24, version 1.1.8* Getting new players is a joke. 100 blue chips = 5 green. 100 green = 1 yellow… Yellow are the minimum you need or everything you put into the player is useless and wastedul. The daily pulls give you on avg 5-20 blues at a 95% rate. They then put you in leagues with people 10+ overall points higher than your team. I watch 7-8 missed shots in a row. The players act as if their ratings are 15-20 vs the 77-85 they should be hitting shots at. If you are going to ask people to spend $100+ a month to even have a bottom of the barrel team, then have actual players. You seem to earn enough to pay the licensing fee. There are more games out there with less foolish features. ### 1/5 — Bought something but didn’t receive it *2025-08-24, version 1.1.8* I bought the starter pack and never received I was also charged for it on my Card ### 1/5 — Bugs *2025-06-22, version 1.1.8* Game is interesting but it has bugs. I had 3 red coins, got another one and it is still showing 3 red coins. ### 1/5 — Needs fixes. *2025-05-04, version 1.1.8* So first off your in app purchases are extremely overpriced I think if you lower it your income will actually increase and second off you coded it wrong or something and you currently don’t get any xp fir playing pickupgames ### 1/5 — Got so much worse *2024-11-19, version 1.1.6* At this point in the games history I can’t even log in to my game without closing the app 5 times and when it finally logs me in, it’s either my wifi is bad and I can’t do anything anymore, and or it deletes my progress only to stop working as soon as I enter the game I remember when this game was better The models were better The game worked And it was fun Now after being updated it’s just another game the developers ruined So at this point, stop updating your games please I’m begging you. I don’t want to play this No one does ### 1/5 — Broken? *2024-11-06, version 1.1.6* Won’t open up. Get’s to the login screen and cannot create an account. Just keeps spinning no matter if I try apple, google or continue without syncing. This is typically the kind of game that I will play for a good stretch, so hopefully I can finally get it to work. Looks to be a solid game, so would like to figure out how to make it work ### 1/5 — Don’t bother *2024-10-29, version 1.1.5* AI needs tuning, you’ll constantly miss with 70% “success” rate. Gains are too slow ### 1/5 — terrible *2024-10-22, version 1.1.4* why am i upgrading players to still loose against people that are 70 ovr ? ### 1/5 — this game is bad *2024-10-15, version 1.1.3* it the best game ever noooooooooo it is not ok bro make the game better bro please this game is so boring bro.call of duty is so gooooooood. by:a9 year old ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — It is a good game but *2026-08-06, version 1.1.11* It is a good game but I can’t purchase the battle pass.
