Mediocre game with stellar graphics
First things first, graphics and player models are good, with fun animations. On the other hand , the game is very incomplete and underdeveloped. No announcers? You can’t be serious, all you hear is the same repetitious fan noise and player call outs with no variation. The lack of a replay cam takes the fun out of huge dunks. Gameplay is also very underwhelming. Controls are mediocre at best, player models have forced animations that look unnatural. Can’t guard well without being pushed into some imaginary wall, offensive rebounds are automatic put backs and shooting is a Hassle. Unless your completely wide open or getting a green, no shot is going in consistently. Post ups are nonexistent, for example a 7 foot player will not score against a defending point guard unless your giannis or Anthony Davis. Overall the game is only good for a few plays before it becomes a tedious headache.

Needs to be better
As much as i love to play this game there are some things you guys could add to it and fix. 1. You need to fix the passing options. There’s times where i want to pass the ball to someone who’s open and it’ll throw it across the court to someone else and it’s frustrating to say the least. 2. The defensive assignments get changed every two seconds and i get the penalty for someone i wasn’t even guarding if they make a shot. 3. I think you guys need to implement guidelines for the plays being made like in the actual console game. This would help people who have never played before realize what they should do when playing a position. 4. I think there needs to be team practices every once in a while for maybe badge upgrades but also to help your player get better and actually practice.
I understand that this is just a mini game version of the actual game, but i still think these things will help and get a ton of more appreciation for the game.

Unfinished game/waste of time
Not like the other versions of NBA 2k on iPhone in the past. They have gotten rid of Vc’s, career mode doesn’t have a story line, playing multiplayer doesn’t keep track of w’s and l’s. In career mode it’s hard to get a good player and after 20 seasons you automatically retire…. Compared to the other versions since 2019 I’ve be playing it on mobile and I recently had it on PS5 but the difference is sad. This game is pretty much not even finished. The sound track is just instrumental instead of actual up beat songs. I purposely had gotten Apple Arcade just to play 2k but this was a waste.. hope next year for 2k 22 they do a better job.. i don’t know what they were doing with this.. they can keep this game… waste of time…. 2k you guys gotta do better….

Worst than 2k20
Honestly This Was A Letdown and in my opinion worst than the first one, there’s just wayy to much removed from 21 compared to 20, the only good thing I could give this are the graphics and even those aren’t the best, I know it’s a mobile version but that shouldn’t be an excuse bc 20 was wayy better than this, the controls trash, the gameplay trash the story mode trash, there wasn’t even really a story mode, and can we still with the narrated story modes it gets boring and annoying, I know this is just a $5-$10 game but still if it’s a new version I expect it to be better than the previous not worse. After this review I’m deleting this and redownloading 2k20 because at least I had more fun and more characters to play on black top with.

just frustrating and v e r y time consuming
After playing more there is NO VC SIM, not even half so it would take 5 full in game season to get to a 93 overall BEFORE badges. The controls are again bad, very bad. I find the defender is glued onto me or if I’m defending my player can’t follow him. They added a defensive assist button but it’s the equivalent of your guy putting his arms up. At least the graphics right? Nope. Jerseys are blurry, crowds are barren, player expression is non existent. The only good thing is the actual court. But hey, at least I can’t buy vc, I just have to put in hundreds of hours instead! This game was made to be monetized, but since it’s on arcade they just removed the buy vc option that’s it. So no balancing what so ever.
Better off with any other arcade game on here really, spend your time somewhere else.
