### 5/5 — Fire Game!!!!!

*2023-05-25*

Best hoop game in the market!!!! Love how the game moves when you move wherever you go you can collect new stuff money play different players so if you travel a mile, there’s a bunch of stuff on your way wherever you’re going and back. 
 It’s very realistic love how you can change up your gear, your shoes, different basketball colors and art on the balls. The players are spot on their skills are pretty much the same as in real life. If you really get into the game, you’ll understand what I’m saying, but this is a great game I suggest anyone into basketball download this game and have fun you get to work out and lose a few pounds in the process.

### 4/5 — NBA All-World Review

*2023-04-07*

I think this is a fantastic game and i can’t wait to be able to get every player into the game, but I think that it may be too difficult and some changes should be made. The only way for me to level up at this point in the game is by using a large amount of tournament rings which is very difficult to do if I am capped at one a day most days. Everything else in the game you can grind for and I personally have an abundance of, but I can’t level up anymore because it takes so long to get tournament rings. It’s gotten to the point where the game isn’t really as fun anymore because I have every player I can possibly get and all I am waiting for is getting more tournament rings to level up. I think making it less rings to upgrade players of higher levels or making it easier/faster to get them would make the game more enjoyable. Other wise though, it’s a fantastic games with only a few bugs and great gameplay!

### 5/5 — I love this game but it has a couple of super annoying bugs.

*2023-03-21*

I play this game everyday I love the mechanics, collecting, leveling up and the gyms. I have a couple of comments. Firstly there are two horrible glitches or bugs. One is that when you level up the level up sound for the ratings going up doesn’t stop until you completely close out the game. Another one is if I play to many games in a row without closing the game the rewards start glitching and I have to press the screen for up to a minute until the rewards screen finally gives me the option to exit. Last thing is about the king of the court, I understand if you have to battle all the way up if there are real humans holding all the positions but if it’s bots there should be a way to bypass a couple places because the grind is way too crazy. I had to give 5 star rating because despite those pretty big problems I love this game thank you to the producers. If the glitches get fixed I’ll write a different better review thanks.

### 5/5 — Great game to play walking

*2023-03-13*

I’ve walked over 50mi ever since i downloaded this game. A few glitches here and there that I’m sure Niantic is working on, other than what is the endgame? I enjoy it because it gets me out the house…sometimes exploring other places and seeing landmarks I don’t normally pay attention to when I’m out and about. It feels like Im collecting players and boosting them up. I hope Niantic introduces legendary players as special events like Bird, Wilt, MJ, Shaq etc. That’d be cool! Also, it would be nice if our players in gyms are wearing the gear we have selected them to wear so other players can peep our swag. Thanks for making this game and looking forward to future updates.

### 1/5 — Incredibly frustrating

*2023-03-12*

1-on-1 games are the most important part and yet most broken part of this game. After level 10- Your skill and your player rating are much less important than who starts with the ball in these first-to-3 games. Pretty much whoever starts the with the ball is going to win unless your rating several hundred points higher. Additionally, the amount of crashes that cause you to lose games is crazy…feels like this game is really in beta. 

I’m all for hardcore grinding to progress, have played pogo and hpwu (rip) since day 1, but the grinding in those games was about how much time/effort I had to spend. This game, the grinding is blocked by poor game mechanics and crashes that make it feel like a hopeless waste of time. 

Also, game makers alienating all current players with new achievement rewards update is ridiculous. What could you possibly gain from hurting your entire active player base? This makes no sense. 

If you have an old phone, this game isn’t for you. 5-10 minutes of playing, especially the 1-on-1 games, and you phone is going to feel like it’s on fire (playing on iPhone 14…)

The first couple weeks and 10ish levels were a lot of fun, which I assume is who most of the 5-star reviews are from. After that, yikes. 

Hopefully they can add other types of tournaments/ways to get rings (shooting tournaments?) and sort out the crashing issues, otherwise this game won’t be around long.

### 4/5 — Amazing game !!!

*2023-03-11*

This game is great! The graphics are top tier for the game it is. The gameplay itself is pretty remarkable. I have been playing this game for a few weeks now and there have been no bugs or glitches or problems at all, the only issue I have is how hard it can get to level up your team In general, also I understand this is a newer game so it is going to take time for it to develop fully but I feel there could be some more specific controls, also there should be some more music or a better soundtrack and some more available players to “catch”. understandable this isn’t here yet , but a PvP where you can play your friend would be cool.  Otherwise for how young this game is , I think it’s spectacular, and the game has true potential, I think the concept is pretty neat.

### 4/5 — Idk

*2023-03-03*

From my understanding it’s a fairly new game ? That’s actually testing mobile boundaries it’s not to many like it out there So most bugs & what not i understand until fixed if not game breaking I feel it’s a is what it is situation that being said this game is not perfect at all and it’s a lot that needs to be thought about & taken into consideration. But for someone like me that plays a lot of mobile games even owning multiple consoles. The way this game makes my phone SO HOT SO QUICKLY is a automatic turn off & probably #1 think wrong in my opinion it needs to be played with and fixed asap I’ll spend money on this though I want lebron or giannis

### 5/5 — Fun game, more players please

*2023-02-25, version 1.11.1*

I’ve been playing this game about a week.  There’s a good variety of things to do, arenas and shootouts and upgrade hunting.  I like to see that the NBA Players Association is part of the ownership group.  I like to hope this can help out all the players, from stars to backups and veterans to rookies.  My favorite part is getting a player I like and then maxing them out.  There’s a good mix of players to start out with, and all the All-Stars.  Personally I can’t wait for the updates that add more players.  I want to destroy the League with a maxed out Mike Muscala.  Burn it all down Mike! <3

### 4/5 — Need more ballers in these streets! Get in here!

*2023-02-23, version 1.11.1*

This games a solid time occupier when you need to burn time. I won’t stop until I get Joker an level him all the way to smoke y’all.

I gave it a 4 of 5 cause it takes almost an entire hour to beat all 10 players in order to rule a court. I don’t have a solution but that’s my grip (Devs do something).

Everything else is pretty decent, overall I enjoy the game.

### 2/5 — Meh

*2023-02-22, version 1.11.1*

Game could be lots of fun, but is so buggy it's not worth it. Game frequently locks up in 1v1 mode, which causes you to lose. It can't handle multiple screen taps and just dies. Looking at stats of your players requires way too many clicks. There should be an easy way to swipe between guys to see things quickly. If you click on one of the item markers on the map and aren't within range but walk up to it, it should let you then get the items as you're close enough now. Instead you have to leave the screen and open again. Flawed experience.
