*2023-12-06*

Its a good games for kids and adults if you don’t want to spend real money

### 5/5 — Great idea

*2023-12-05*

always thought it would be cool to actually put literal “stock” into how much you like/believe in a player and that’s what this app is

### 4/5 — potential

*2023-12-02*

Idea is really cool but it still feels very early in development. I cannot cancel trades and they won’t go through so I cannot use my $200 that I got to start. A way to cancel a challenge if they don’t accept would be really good too.

### 5/5 — Unique Awesome concept

I really enjoy this concept of game and I hope it can expand into more players and even other sports. The no in-app purchases is great love this game!
