However if you play the game for a month or so you’ll end up being unable to win games as the only way to level up and compete the higher levels is to spend silly amounts of money. Good for a few week game. ### 2/5 — Good game , but needs work *2026-07-30, version 1.51.1* Its disappointing giving it a 2 cause its a good concept, but you have made it way to hard to get new players , the signing tokens are a joke , basically just pay to get anything better than a rare card, so im stuck not able to move on , so wont be playing anymore ### 4/5 — I love this game but… *2025-07-31, version 1.46.1* I don’t like when I choose a skill and it stays there forever like I can’t continue the game ### 2/5 — Bom mas trava direto *2025-07-27* Um jogo divertido… porém trava muito que até desanima jogar… **Developer response:** Hello, Thank you for your comment.

I have been playing this game for a long time now, and this game is spectacular and I think you all should play this game. ### 5/5 — Suggestion *2025-06-07, version 1.44.2* I am a big fan of this game and would love to see a nice new cool addition. After we beat the last team make it that basketball teams from space come to challenge us and we go to a new world. The space world. There we will face more basketball teams with aliens and robots and for example thanos at the end. Then the game would end. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Forced ads *2026-02-25, version 1.50.2* Nothing is worse than a game that forces you to watch ads. Hate it.

So many ads. *2025-10-03, version 1.46.1* Forced ads that will randomly appear. Multiple ads whenever you return to the main screen. Annoying pop up “deals” that are insanely priced garbage. This game is terrible, boring and repetitive. The ads are icing on the faecal cake. ### 1/5 — Not a ads fan on games *2025-09-29, version 1.46.1* As the title says I do not like ads in games ### 1/5 — You lose the first game no matter what *2025-09-21, version 1.46.1* This game force you to see the score 70 to 71 you need to stop showing this because this is not a movie and this is not fun. ### 1/5 — Симулятор реклама *2025-08-22* За первые 5 минут игры, 4,5 я смотрел рекламу. **Developer response:** Hello, Thank you for your message.

Download and ENJOY!!! ### 5/5 — Perfection *2026-02-03, version 1.50.2* Awsome game it got me so engaged ### 5/5 — 🫰 *2026-01-31, version 1.50.2* BEST childhood game ### 5/5 — The king *2025-11-18, version 1.48.2* It is as good as king James play it every day idle five play now ### 5/5 — Hata *2025-09-10, version 1.46.1* An error occurs mid-match or late-match, causing the game to pause. We have to log out and log back in. This wastes energy and makes the match unplayable. I would be very grateful if it could be fixed. Maçın ortasında veya sonunda bir hata oluşuyor ve oyun duraklıyor. Çıkış yapıp tekrar giriş yapmamız gerekiyor. Bu durum enerji israfına yol açıyor ve maçı oynanamaz hale getiriyor. Düzeltilebilirse çok minnettar olurum. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
