### 5/5 — It is amazing

*2026-07-14, version 1.3*

The game is one of my favorites because it’s so fun and has everything you would want in a 2k game. I love the carrier mode and all star weekend. And all the other modes too

### 5/5 — Career mode is the best

*2026-06-28, version 1.3*

Playing career mode just doesn’t get boring

### 1/5 — Download stuck

*2026-06-19, version 1.3*

This sucks. The free version is better because you can actually play the game. Once you install you are greeted by another download screen if thenone in the appstore wasntaenough, afterr getting a litle bit more than ahlfway through, it stops and you are stuck ina. Screen forver without download. There is no fix for it and is an infiniteloop when you decide to try to get to that download screen agian. I would give it a 0 if i could because of the simple fact that you cant even play it. I feel bad for the people that wasted their precious money on this thing.
