### 4/5 — Es bueno

*2026-07-19, version 3.0.1*

Me gusta el juego pero hay un error en el torneo de eliminatorias del ejem. Mundial hay países repetidos y el torneo no tiene sentido espero que lo arreglen 🙂

### 4/5 — Gameplay

*2026-07-07, version 3.0.1*

Is there any way to make the game more realistic, like the better teams have a higher percentage to win than the weaker teams?

### 4/5 — Le jeu est bien mais...

*2026-06-30*

Le jeu est vraiment très bien, j’adore ! Honnêtement, des éléments comme les corners ou les penaltys ne sont pas vraiment importants à mes yeux. En revanche, ce qui pourrait tout changer, ce serait de pouvoir choisir le niveau des équipes, ou au moins qu’elles aient un niveau plus réaliste. Parce que voir une équipe d’un pays que tu ne pourrais même pas localiser sur une carte battre l’Espagne, le Brésil ou d’autres grandes sélections, c’est assez bizarre. Sinon, jeu incroyable !

### 3/5 — 게임 개선 의견

*2026-06-28*

그 골 터지는 장면 리플레이 나올 때, 득점자와 어시스트 (있으면) 대상까지 기재되도록 하면 좋을 것 같아요

### 4/5 — Naming PLAYERSSS!

*2026-05-03*

I love this game so much and I have been playing it and watching  it for many years now. Almost everything is perfect EXCEPT for one small thing. PLEEEEEEEZ make it so that we can NAME THE PLAYERS IN OUR CUSTOM CLUBS! THAT would be GREAAAT. :)

### 3/5 — Tournament Options

*2026-04-02, version 3.0.1*

Can you add a League & Knockout option for the tournament options please?

### 4/5 — Good but

*2026-02-15*

Good game but when you play as a player the controls are terrible also wish the game was realistic like England would not lose 0 - 4 to Bulgaria

### 3/5 — Tooooo expensive and laggy

*2025-10-10*

This is one of my favourite games, but I’ve noticed a lot of bugs. Sometimes it would kick me out of the game or just be unplayable. Another problem I’ve noticed is there’s only countries that you could choose and you have to pay to make teams please noticeee

### 4/5 — Good game

*2025-06-20*

Is a good game the only thing is that you need to customize your team in a realy difficult way.I want that you can chose your team and customize, because like that could be more easy

### 3/5 — 要らない機能

*2025-02-03*

選手交代の機能要りません。わざわざ11人選手の名前を変えてフォーメーションも組んだのに観戦になるとめちゃくちゃにされます。せめて選手交代のオンオフ機能をください

### 5/5 — thank you bouncy marble

*2025-01-03*

I am a huge fan of your games, I have the $20 game bundle on my Mac, and the pro version on this game. I appreciate all the hard work that went into your games, and continue to use them on a regular basis. I have been playing your games since early 2024, but I never realized that I did not write a
review until now. All the games are so satisfying, fun, and high-quality.
Also you are the only developer on the App Store that I know of that regularly responds to reviews. I appreciate that you acknowledge almost every review instead of using a response bot, like almost every developer out there. I also have a few questions to ask. First, how does the “simulate” button ( technically ) calculate the result.
Second, the button to watch ads for coins ( which I really want to frequently ) does not appear after every refresh. I was wondering if there was a cooldown, or if it is internet connection based. Third, the pro version also has “offline rewards”.
however, when I do not have connection, the game sometimes thinks that I did not buy pro in the first place, and then realizes that I did once I get reconnected. Lastly, on the “version history” tab for this game in the App Store, one version says “added daily reward”, however I did not receive any daily rewards even on the latest version. 
I am not upset about coins, i am just pointing out what I think might be a bug as far as I am aware. Excellent game. Thank you bouncy marble :)

### 4/5 — vencedores aleatórios

*2024-12-30*

O jogo é torcer para a bola entrar,
então só da vencedores aleatórios,
mas é divertido

### 5/5 — Some changes but still good game

*2024-12-19, version 3.0.1*

So the game is good but can u add custom stadiums or we can customize our stadiums pls very good thank u

### 5/5 — new settings

*2024-12-17, version 3.0.1*

i love this game best game i played so far i would really love for you to add a settings that would remove goals replays 
i just feel it would make the game faster and it would help me get threw each game faster

### 5/5 — That game is really fun and good

*2024-11-27*

I really love this game it’s a lot of fun it’s just a a simple game to stop your boredom but it’s really fun and simple but the only thing I don’t like is how much the custom balls cost it cost 10 can you make it 5 pls but it’s a really fun game no but it’s really lagging when you change the names and watch it

### 5/5 — This game is one of my favorites.

*2024-11-26*

From watching stuff to even playing in it. I actually prefer this more than roblox. Its just so entertaining for me. And my sport is even soccer :D

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2026-05-20*

Not only is the game mad unrealistic 
The grind is so unfair 
200 coins for 10 teams and having to watch adds is insane
It is an absolute disgrace

### 1/5 — Ruim

*2026-02-20*

Bem ruim

### 1/5 — Fake coins

*2025-12-27, version 3.0.1*

Why are the coins (x10, x70, x200). I thought it was multiplying the amount of coins you earn. I hate you!!!

### 1/5 — Bad

*2024-11-09*

Bad

### 1/5 — Fun but a scam

*2024-06-03, version 2.1.1*

If you dont like ads don’t get this game, i paid to not get ads but it still gives me ads. Dont get this game im warning you

### 1/5 — Glitch

*2023-01-01, version 2.1.1*

Everytime I try to get in It kicks me Instantly. Is this a glitch?

### 1/5 — Was going to rate 5,Until..

*2022-12-18*

I realised the amount of ads I had to watch.Each match was 1 minute,half time and the end I would get an ad. Forced to delete it because of the ads every 30 seconds (different experience depending on how long your matches are.Cherry on top,ad on the side of your screen.

PS- In a tournament I have to watch over 100 ads to get through it. 2 Ads per game.. around 50 matches.. Unbelievably horrible!

**Developer response:** Ads keep my apps free, there's a pro version to remove them anyway.

### 1/5 — Absolute scam.

*2022-10-23, version 2.0*

I bought marble soccer pro and it gave me absolutely nothing can you at least tell me what it’s supposed to give you

### 1/5 — World Cup improvements

*2022-10-19*

There are too many World Cup games 
I wish we could skip the game

**Developer response:** Why? what's the point of that? I like watching all matches. Btw, you can skip group stage.

### 3/5 — Pode melhorar

*2026-07-14*

A mecânica está legal, porém eu gostaria que resolvessem esse Lag extremo no jogo que fazem as partidas durarem mais do que deviam

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Very Creative

*2026-06-23*

I’m ngl I had low expectations for this game but it’s actually way better than I thought it was going to be. They added a sim to the game making large tournaments possible. It would be nice if there were other things added like qualifiers and such as well as js a few small things to make the game smoother bc it makes my phone overheat very fast(I have the iPhone 17 so I don’t think it’s my phone that’s the problem) but overall a great fun little game

### 5/5 — PEAK

*2026-06-20, version 3.0.1*

It’s fun but you should add it where you can customize your team players name or other team members name.

### 5/5 — おもしろい！

*2026-03-13*

野球バージョンも作って欲しい！プレイしなくていいから、トーナメントとかのモードで十分!

### 5/5 — Everything I want in a marble soccer game. Adding a suggestion here!

*2025-12-05*

So yes this game is peak. I don’t usually write reviews but this is exactly like those algodoo marble sims I loved watching and now I can do it with my own marble teams!

The $5 to remove ads is fair although tbh I’m gonna stick to having short ads. But if the developer took my advice I may look at supporting them again (I bought pro in the original marble race)

My idea is that we need a way to randomize groups after selecting teams, manually choosing teams for groups is tiresome and sometimes I accidentally use the same team over and over again. I need a randomizer! Same could also go for what teams we want to put in in the first place, I have 39 teams but I can’t decide which 32 to put in and which 7 to leave out. Why not have a randomizer choose!

Keep up the amazing work on these games friend and I hope this review sees you <3

### 5/5 — Can it be a little bit more realistic ?

*2025-06-05*

Well, I know it’s a marble game anyway, but I think it’s gonna be even better if you make the simulation mechanics more realistic when the teams attack and defense. 
Btw, it’s still a very good game

### 5/5 — The game improved a lot

*2025-05-11*

I played it a few years ago and since then the game has improved a lot. The addition of player names is really well done.

You could also add a ranking for goals and assists.

### 5/5 — Mais ou menos

*2025-04-24*

Tem um pouco de lag de bug

### 5/5 — Dribedhjesjbze

*2025-04-22*

Can we like add a manager where we can set tactics and own a team

### 5/5 — Nice

*2025-04-22*

The game creating was cool and the player names are creative! Definitely 5 stars!

### 5/5 — Incroyable 😻

*2025-04-17*

Bonjour ! Ce jeux et top ! Je pense qu’on peut allez encore plus loins en choisissant le niveau des équipe et en améliorant les simulations de match et choisissant des tactiques plus précises, sa serai incroyable, si non bravo continuez comme ça 👍🏿 🔥
