Really good game but…
I left my team in free agency and I can’t play anymore. My home page is the original team and I don’t get minutes. It’s like I was never transferred over?
I can’t get ads?
Really good game but i can’t get passed my freshman year of highschool since there never any ads available, and 15-30 bucks is too high for me. Is that on my end?
Love it!
This is by far one of the better sports simulation games I’ve played, and it has the potential to be even better. I really enjoy the depth of how long and extensive our player’s basketball career can be. Being able to go from childhood to the pro league makes the game more replayable and engaging. There are some things that I think could improve player experience though.
1. Lower CPU Progression
I think it’s a little unreasonable for the pro league to be filled with so many 95+ players. It adds a level of artificial difficulty to dominating and team building that isn’t enjoyable. Can’t fill out team rosters properly because there’s always six guys that are 98-99 overall who take up 90% of cap space. Can’t consistently land top spots on stat leaderboards, even as a 104 overall, because there are always 10 players outplaying you in that regard (especially on defense, it’s nearly impossible to lead the league in blocks or steals). It also makes breaking records tougher because there’s, again, six more guys on your team taking up possessions. I’d like it if there were a way to tune this down by A LOT.
2.More Build Customization
I think having more attributes/characteristics that affect play-style would be a good way to add replayability to the game as it stops users from essentially making the same guy over and over. Outside of the basics like height, wingspan, and weight, I would also like to add specializations. Things like skills that make it so that a player is much better at passing out of traps, or a skill that increases the odds to succeed at ankle breaker events.
3.More Intricate Player Relationships
I really like the fact we’re able to build relationships with our coach, the players on our team, and our parents. However, I think we can take this system a step further. Adding player rivalries and similar interactions would also increase replayability. Seeing our player purposely form negative relationships with opposing players would be interesting. It’d also be interesting to see players from our team have some negative reactions with us. Maybe a player is upset that we’re getting more minutes/touches with them.
Then, to make things even more interesting, I think giving certain boosts based on your relationship would be great. Things like having a player play better against a team or opposing players they really dislike. Would add more variety to gameplay.
But those are all just suggestions. Again, I really love to the game and can’t wait to see how it develops.

Good but kinda glitchy
Great game but with each build very repetitive and also whenever you watch an ad eve try thing glitches and you have to close the game and reopen. Outside of that it’s great!
Errors
I love the game so far, but I keep having a glitch. After watching the first ad to boost stamina, my game freezes. I have to close the app, then when I open it, it transfers me to a new high school. Please fix.
INSANE improvements / feedback and things you should add.
I really love the fact that we can start as a kid, then go to hs, college and further professional. Thing is, this game has SO MANY ads. I want to have a good gameplay to where I can just play without ads every 5 minutes. I just think the better we play we should be able to get energy instead of losing it. I say that because if we’re the best player in the league we should be able to easily defeat players without losing energy. Please remove a lot of ads and add more features.

Had potential
This game was an amazing in-depth simulator, but it won’t load in even with 500 mb/s internet
Response from developer
I'll look for a bug you may be experiencing, but I urge you to try again! The game uses very little internet and 500mbps is faster than the majority of people have. Startup could take 10-20 seconds in some cases. Contact me if you're still having issues!
4.5/5: Pros-Cons-Needs List
I’ve played this game for a few days now, after looking for something like this, I wanted to compose a list to help the new players!
Pros:
An actual career sim that feels more immersive than what it is (+++).
You get to start at any point, literally. Childhood, grade school, college (and I believe), straight into the league, this brings so many different styles and experiences (+++++).
You play good, you get to go anywhere. You can also change the team’s surnames (+).
You have actual relationships with teammates, coaches and family that affect you (++).
Cons:
I think the dev knows, but 30 dollars for the full-full version on mobile, IN THIS ECONOMY, is a hefty price. I get it, games are expensive, but even some of the top indie mobile games only asks for, maybe 5-8 dollars for god mode or more. If a price reduction was possible, then more people would definitely invest (-5).
The stamina/recovery system needs to be tweaked. The ad system is fine, but sometimes they don’t reward you. If you were able to use some of the money to get a better stamina recovery rate, or a reduced stamina loss booster, or both, it would be fine. Until then, the stamina system is meh (-1).
Needs:
I feel like you’d get better feedback on social media, and if you had a discord for the game, you’ll get way more eyes on it.
Conclusion:
I’m only in year 1 of my rookie year (played 2 in college), and I do think the game is a ton of fun. There’s loads of potential here, and I think there’s a big chance that the dev can go far with this and potentially other sports. I hope that you take everything I said as constructive! Thank you!

Let’s go this is the best game i never seen
⭐️⭐️👀
pretty good ngl
tbh this game is pretty good and a good way to pass time so imma do like a pros cons type thing.
pros: i like how u choose where u start in different periods of your life
i also enjoy the simplicity of the dashboard and how easy it is to navigate through the game
the overall game events make games feel so much more immersive and engaging
cons: i think the team options in the rookie contract are good, but if i go number one, let me decide what i want. how many years, salary, option, back load or front load
and another thing is the texts. the texts are cool at first, but you get tired of the same texts every 3 days.
and the last thing i probably would say is that the news articles aren’t unique. not asking for millions of unique articles, just maybe they change based on the result of the game, who wins, what your stat line was, just things that would normally impact news articles
but this game is really fun, good job to u developer for creating probably the simplest and most addicting basketball career sim on the app store

Sehr gutes Spiel mit Potenzial
Ich muss sagen das Spiel macht mir sehr großen Spaß es ist tatsächlich nur ein bisschen häufig dass ich Sachen wiederholen also die selben Chat-Nachrichten mit den Personen und ein paar mehr Einstellungen wären cool so dass die Möglichkeit entsteht beispielsweise Wappen hochzuladen und andere viele Optionen mit gestalten beispielsweise mehr Avatare und auch Anpassungen wenn man mit einer Spielerin spielt aber sonst geiles Game

Decent game
Game is good. Play it often. But for an unestablished indie phone game 20 dollars is way too expensive. Outside of the constant ads to play it’s a good game. Game doesn’t offer enough to justify a 20 dollar price tag when I can pay 5 for an Apple Arcade pass and just play 2k instead (plus other games). Still waiting for all star weekend to exist in this game. Been seeing its coming for months now. G League would be nice too.

Great Game but
It’s an amazing game I ended up buying the full game and I don’t regret it however the only bad this is I get traded a lot and I can’t negotiate for longer then 3 years it literally won’t let me pick 1 2 4 or 5 years but that’s not much of a issue the main issue is not staying on a team for multiple years it gets annoying I will be on a contender and then I get traded to the worst team in the league same thing if I sign somewhere else I will sign with a contender team and they will trade me after a few weeks I hope this gets fix this game has so much potential but it should also have a new trade clause when your doing contracts with that being said this is an amazing game if they can fix those few things this game go be one of the best in the App Store

Gane
My point guard is averaging 10 rebounds and 3 assists. He’s a point guard.
Best sports sim
Perfect career mode needs updates for sure
Needs minor tweaks
Often I can’t progress days and have too restart the game, although not a major concern it can get annoying. Also rn I can’t play the game as it’s stuck on the loading screen and it’s saying ‘waking up’ other then that amazing game make more!
GUYS! READ THIS COMMENT BEFORE WASTING YOUR TIME AND MONEY ON THIS GAME.
I just requested a refund because this game is unrealistic and not what I expected. It is purely a simulation game focused mainly on player ratings.
For example, it does not seem to matter if your starting five includes three PGs and two SGs. As long as those players have high ratings, you can still beat a well-balanced team with a proper PG, SG, SF, PF, and C starting lineup, even if that balanced team also has good ratings.

“It is purely a simulation game focused mainly on player ratings.” Yes that’s literally what the game is and is what it’s advertised as. The game is free to play, I don’t know how it’s “not what you expected.” Sounds like you just want to steal your money back after you’ve had your fun.
Bug
It’s a solid game however the stamina bar is annoying and $30 is a crazy price but it is a addictive game however there is bugs on day 14 ,20 and sometimes other dates where when you sim, it doesn’t get sim and just stays at the same date even though it says simulating. Fix this bug and this game should be a really fun game.

Response from developer
Thanks for the feedback! I think the bug you're dealing with is happening anytime you watch an ad, because others are dealing with it. I'm working on fixing it, but in the mean time, you should be able to click to the main menu and back and fix it that way. And I just want to mention $15 will give you unlimited stamina, and the $30 is just if you want the extra cheats. Apologies for the bug though, thanks for playing!
Game crashes after every ad played
Game crashes every time an ad plays and I always have to close app and open again in order to fix. Very annoying to do this. Other than that great game!
Love this game but got to improve a little more
Don’t get me wrong I love this game,but
the thing that made me stop playing the game is,all the ads I would play the game more if you could just have unlimited stamina,I hope you change that.that is the only thing I don’t like about this game but the rest is good,please change it to you will have unlimited stamina cause I do not want to pay 15 dollars,just for me not to play it a lot.So if you change that I would play it way more than I do.thank you for your time hope you change that bye!!
