The game would just randomly show the game over menu even when I have 2 lives left. I have a video of the bug should you guys want it. Please take a look into it as it taints the gameplay ### 3/5 — Glitch *2024-03-13, version 2.1.11* Game is good but noticed that when you hit "GREAT SCORE" - it pops up DURING game play and you lose! Why does the gameplay not pause? It continues while the whole screen is blocked. Also another issue is when it lets you watch as or something - it stay on screen. i played full 2 balls with the options on screen which don’t work. ### 4/5 — Good but buggy *2024-01-14, version 2.1.11* I've only playing for an hour or so but in that time I've already experienced that the same bug occurs on single player, where before even getting scored on it says "3 High Score" while the game is going on it goes to the end screen ### 4/5 — Amazing. However… *2024-01-11, version 2.1.11* The game is sometimes buggy; it sometimes says you lost the game, whilst you are still playing, you can still and play your character but, the menue button just appears making it difficult to play ### 2/5 — Please update Please *2024-01-02, version 2.1.11* This game is incredible. This game has been around for awhile and I’m noticing a lot of bugs. The skins don’t work, and sometimes the end match screen shows up mid game, please update this game. This is an amazing game that needs minor tweaks at this point. ### 4/5 — Amazing! *2023-10-25, version 2.1.11* I remember when I found this game as a kid and I became ADDICTED. This game is honestly one of the best mobile games that I’ve played. And I love the protour mode. It’s super fast compared to the normal mode. Overall I give it a 9/10 only because of bugs. ### 3/5 — Frustrating *2023-04-24, version 2.1.11* Seems like a smooth and simple game, but the hitting? Moving around? It’s all suddenly really unpolished and janky with the hit boxes Fix your game ### 4/5 — UPDATE THE GAME *2023-04-07, version 2.1.11* DO IT ### 4/5 — Great game with lots of bugs *2023-02-04, version 2.1.11* I really enjoyed this game but rarely played it due to its bugs. Although the background appears to show some activity, the menu is stuck (all of the buttons not responding) almost every time a match ends. Looks like progress is kept. Hence I’m keeping this installed, hoping for updates from dev. But had to close the game completely and open it again to start a new match. ### 4/5 — Pretty good... *2023-01-04, version 2.1.11* Pretty good there’s that odd add sometimes but the adds aren’t to bad, can you pleas make it online but out of all that I would say it’s still a good game ### 3/5 — it’s fun but kinda buggy *2022-12-10, version 2.1.11* i noticed when playing multiplayer with friends some of the characters would just freeze and they wouldn’t be able to move, but other than that this game fun ### 4/5 — EPIC GAME! but sadly... *2022-08-31, version 2.1.11* The game has this glitch were if I go to the corner(of my side)I get trapped and can’t move! Also I exited the game during that, so now I have 2 menus overlapping each other please fix this and you’ll get 5 stars Thanks, from “DarkNinja7150_YT” —————————————————————————————— ### 2/5 — Bugs *2022-07-13, version 2.1.11* Noticing a lot of bugs.. sometimes it will show the end screen (with the crown points and win a prize layout) in the middle of a game. Pauses after watching ads for more coins, and won't let me press any buttons so I have to close tbe game out. Many others. Also there should be haptics. ### 3/5 — fix the glitches *2022-07-03, version 2.1.11* I really love this game but there are times where i will be playing and mid match it will say “new high score” and stop my game even if the game is still going on and i have 2 balls, this also is extremely annoying when i get very close to my current high score and am about to pass it and all of a sudden the game end screen pops up, i also know that the game isn’t actually over because i can still somewhat play the game with the screen over it, it just makes it hard to see. ### 5/5 — Great game, But where is pvp? *2022-03-20, version 2.1.10* This game literally has everything i need to keep someone like me interested but why not make a game like the like an actual player vs player game? i wanna go against someone other than the bots. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS. ### 3/5 — pktquests are confusing *2022-02-23* I love this game. The bugs are infuriating but bearable (some are more than annoying, see review by NibbleOrByte). But one thing I do especially dislike is the fact that there is very little clarification on the rules or terms. Sure, the concept is super simple, but what is a rally? Is it the whole game until you run out of balls? Is it the playtime between goals? What is the difference between points and score? These little details make some of the quests really confusing. I have literally no idea what to do for some and end up trying everything (getting a score of 35, hitting the ball 35 times, hitting the ball 35 times without scoring or getting scored on…still stuck on this one). It goes on and on and I can’t find anything online. Again, great game, but would appreciate some feedback, clarification, or (maybe ;P) an update. Thanks for your awesome work and dedication. ### 5/5 — awesome but theres some glitches *2022-02-17, version 2.1.10* hi! i love your game! i used to play this game back when i was 9 or 10 and just recently discovered it again. i just wanna say that its really good and addicting but theres some glitches, not game breaking, but annoying. first, when im finished watching an ad to get coins, it freezes my game and makes it so that i cant click anything. also, there was a text glitch where it said two things overlapping each other. not sure if you guys still work on this game or not though. ### 3/5 — Hard to play *2022-01-14, version 2.1.10* it’s a really fun game to play just very frustrating. it feels like there is no actual strategy to score points like there is in actual ping pong or other volley games. it just feels like you’re supposed to sit there and try to hit the ball beat you can. it’s fun! just not sure if i’m using the mechanics right or if there is actually no strategy ### 3/5 — Revert Back *2022-01-14, version 2.1.10* I’ve had this app for quite some time. Won most of the characters. I redownloaded the app and I cannot play any of the characters I unlocked. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Very frustrating graphics and ads *2022-03-12, version 2.1.10* My kids loved it, up until they beat their old high score. Then puts a giant graphic in the middle of the screen so YOU CAN’T SEE THE BALL and quickly lose. Why deliberately disrupt a great game to tell me it’s a great game and try to get me to watch videos? ### 1/5 — Horrible *2021-11-11, version 2.1.10* So let me get this straitit wont even let me hit the ball i move to fast by lightly moving my finger and the “pratice” match is completly glitched. If the devs can fix it it would be amazing but if there keeping it right at horribleness DELETE GAME NOT WORTH YOUR TIME. ### 1/5 — This game is badly bugged *2021-08-14, version 2.1.10* 4 out of five times the game will bug and they have bunch of stuff appears while playing I have never this problem till I downloaded agains plz deal with this it has cost me everything ### 1/5 — This game is terrible I can’t beat the 2 level when I swipe it doesn’t even swing. *2020-12-23, version 2.1.10* This game is bad. It is taribble ### 1/5 — Buggy and no further updates? *2020-11-28, version 2.1.10* The game gets stuck on an action replay (a feature which, annoyingly, cannot be turned off in settings). It looks like the app hasn’t been updated in some time either, so why is still offered in the App Store? ### 1/5 — Good game, but I got robbed *2020-07-22, version 2.1.10* I love this game it’s so addicting. I love the style and all the different characters. I am kind of mad though. About three times I used 200 coins to use the claw machine and then I closed the app because I had to go do something else. So then I get back on the app and my coins are gone, andI can’t use the claw machine. PLEASE FIX THIS BUG 😒 ### 1/5 — Sleazy monetisation *2020-01-27, version 2.1.7* Great concept but frequent in your face wildly inappropriate full screen advertisements. Cannot find any way to pay to disable them. ### 1/5 — hackers *2019-12-22, version 2.1.7* The bots are hacking ### 1/5 — Glitchy *2019-09-12, version 2.1.6* Too many ads and my game just lags like hell and won’t stop. ### 1/5 — Great game.... so many ads *2018-12-04, version 2.1.2* Thanks for the ads ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — ball *2025-04-19, version 2.1.11* I like the part where Jake obtains a gun and starts absolutely blasting the ball ### 5/5 — Now that's an awesome game *2025-03-08, version 2.1.11* I love this game so much!! I remember playing this game back in 2015 or 2016 I believe. ### 5/5 — Game is great *2024-04-24, version 2.1.11* I love the game and bought the pro version, but my only request is that you update the game somehow, maybe add new game modes or quests. ### 5/5 — Best game ever *2023-12-07, version 2.1.11* Please Develop a online PvP!!!!! 🤯🤯🤯 ### 5/5 — Please bring it back to life *2023-10-01, version 2.1.11* I really love this game back in the days, please keep up with updating the game please ### 5/5 — I’ll pay to remove ads *2023-07-10, version 2.1.11* Remove ads I’ll pay for the game ### 5/5 — The Secret Character *2023-06-29* I have always been curious about this game and didn’t know if I should play it at first, now I love it! The game has so many characters you can be and many styles that you can unlock. The only thing is that there is one character missing, just one! I have every character I think but it says 41/42 and I was so confused. Then that’s when I noticed, a devil character on the Home Screen. Man did I think I was something, but idk how to unlock it. If you could give me any tips that would be great 👍. Overall though this game is just so addicting, fun, and fast paced which makes it more awesome. If you could give me any tips on how to unlock the “Secret Character” that would be awesome Thank You ### 5/5 — How do I collect 42 characters? I have 41 now. *2023-02-10, version 2.1.11* How do I collect 42 characters? I have 41 now. ### 5/5 — Best game ever! *2023-01-16, version 2.1.11* This game is super good, I’m so glad I found this game. Me and my friends play it all day! ### 5/5 — Great game! *2022-04-12, version 2.1.11* I’ve been playing this since launch and it never disappointed me! It’s a really fun game! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
