### 4/5 — Highly  recommend! Though I have an idea.

*2022-11-30, version 2022.5.2*

I really enjoyed the time I spent playing this game. It was a refreshing yet simplistic take on the GM mode of older wrestling games and I would highly recommend it to anyone trying to emulate those classics. I would like to propose an idea for the next game which I think would enhance the long term playability of the game. One of the most enjoyable parts of GM or Universe mode in my opinion is getting to watch the matches you put together so to incorporate this perhaps there could be some sort of text based play by play mode where for each match you could see what moves were used or what happened in a match without a predetermined outcome (most likely utilizing stats for each wrestler) while this is a pretty large addition I think it would definitely make the next game far more fleshed out and enjoyable.

**Developer response:** Hey, thanks for the kind review! This is in the works- right now in 2023 you're able to book your own spots, but there are plans to be able to auto generate these spots :)

### 3/5 — So much potential

*2022-03-05, version 2022.3*

I had a lot of fun for about half an hour while I drafted my wrestlers and booked the first show. There are some bugs that are frustrating. For example, if you accidentally call up the same wrestler twice, your entire game will be ruined. The discrepancy causes bugs that crash the app anywhere you need to select a wrestler fr your now confused roster. Another issue is when you book a match but go back to change it, you basically have to delete it and start over.

Suggestions: 
>Pop a reminder for a wrestler who has already been booked in a match for that show.
>For match outcome purposes, there needs to be something not just for heel/face turns, but things like enhance a rivalry (example A and B are rivals. A interferes in a match between B and C causing B to lose. This should be the purpose of the match.)
>In attacks you should specify who is attacking who. I assume it defaults to either heel attacks face or the order you put it in. But you should control that precisely.
>Instead of generic rivalry lengths, they should have target dates for the completion.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your review! This crash has now been resolved in the latest patch, I'm really sorry to have let that happen. Your suggestions are stuff that have come up a lot before, so rest assured they're on the list :) feel free to join the Discord server where a lot of these things are discussed!

### 4/5 — Can’t use update

*2021-12-21, version 2021.7.2*

This game is awesome especially for being in its early days but I cannot find or use anything from the update.

### 5/5 — The crippler

*2021-06-09, version 2021.7.1*

I’m giving this 5 stars purely because there’s a wrestler named Ben Wa and someone out there is acknowledging one of the greatest technical wrestlers of all time

### 4/5 — I loved it but one big thing

*2021-06-05, version 2021.7.1*

This game is already tons of fun and has tons of potential to be more fun. But my big issue that is really holding me back from keeping playing is having to choose the winner of the matches I put together. That was one of the best parts of the WWE games back in the day was the randomness and surprises that came with the game. Honestly, maybe you could just make it an option for players to chose? If you were to do that I would be playing this daily because the rest of the game is that good.

**Developer response:** Hey, thank you so much for your kind review, I'm really glad to hear you're enjoying the game so much! A random winner option for sure is on the cards for a future update. You can check out the Roadmap within The Office tab to see what's coming soon! You can also follow me on Twitter @j_t_saeed and join the subreddit (http://www.reddit.com/r/ProWrestlingSimulator) to keep in the loop of the latest developments!

Thanks again,
James

### 3/5 — Needs a lot more stuff

*2021-05-21, version 2021.6.1*

It’s great but one it looks like it was made in I phone notes with the background and font and all that 2 there’s no way to sign free agents yet 3 there’s no tag teams or even 2v2 matches and 4 the basic rivalry only lasts a month and it’s like boiling pot or nothing in most cases but has a lot of potential and if you get over that it’s fun I just can’t give it higher then 3.5 stars

### 5/5 — Great game

*2021-05-10, version 2021.5.7*

This is a great game but there needs to be tag team matches

### 4/5 — Review

*2021-04-27, version 2021.5.7*

It be great if you could add all wwe stars on there as of right now

### 3/5 — Missing Features

*2021-04-25, version 2021.5.7*

Some of the features in these reviews need to be added.  Until then I can’t really play the game.  The limitations of the world building and storytelling ruin how good the game really could be.  It’s so close, though.

### 5/5 — Fun

*2021-04-09, version 2021.5.3*

I like the game but can you make it to where we can make are own titles

### 5/5 — Amazing game

*2021-04-02, version 2021.5*

So I know it’s early and everything but I would like to be able to defend titles, tag teams to also progress rivalries, feedback from fans, and different match types including the gauntlet match. Also could you make it to were if I book a person in a match their name doesn’t pop up again if I book another match.

Edit: so I just looked at the road map and omg now I’m definitely staying til the game is completed but I need release dates because I’m genuinely excited!!

Overall the game is good but I do think it needs color and life because the black and orange just gets boring to look at after a while.

**Developer response:** Thank you for kind feedback!

For sure, all of this is in the works as you've seen on the roadmap. I've tried to provide time estimates on as many features as possible on the roadmap, but software is hard to estimate sometimes! You can keep up to date with the latest updates on Pro Wrestling Simulator by following me on Twitter @j_t_saeed :)

Thanks,
James

### 4/5 — Just a little more

*2021-03-29, version 2021.4.2*

I love the game. I love that you can pretty much do whatever you want but I feel as if there should be a little more. It would be cool if you can change the stats of the superstars and change them to what you want. It would also be cool to create a mode where you have unlimited money, hire and fire superstars, custom names for events, change the day of the show, and have more title. Again this game is amazing and I love it and I can’t wait for more updates but that’s what I think it needs. Thank you guys!!!

**Developer response:** Thank you for your kind feedback! For sure the game is still in its early days, but I'm constantly adding new stuff to it. The latest update includes custom roster packs! You can check out the roadmap within the Settings tab to see what's coming soon. You can also keep updated on Twitter @j_t_saeed or on the subreddit www.reddit.com/ProWrestlingSimulator :)

Thanks again,
James

### 5/5 — I have been with you ever since the start

*2021-03-28, version 2021.4.2*

Give me a special mode where you play as a wrestler and see how you get booked and pls add more titles and make tag teams and if you do make the young bucks

### 1/5 — Pay to do anything

*2021-02-01, version 2021.3*

As much as the game is semi enjoyable, there’s not much that you can do without paying for the subscription inside the game. Players, shows, rosters and etc try to force you to pay for it even with the updates mainly going to their subscription service. 

Rosters are cluttered with no separation from who’s been used and who hasn’t in matches. Rivalries are a annoyance as you don’t get to place a rivalry together instead you have to remember the exact superstars for you to use it. 

Not to mention when you use a superstar they still show up when your trying to “book” another match. 

Subpar game with heavily influence for their PWS Subscription

### 2/5 — Fun but bugs ruin experience

*2022-12-02, version 2022.5.2*

I’m a big fan of EWR, so a game like this is cool for me. However this game has some bugs that can really mess with the enjoyment.

1.  It seems that on the drop down menu in the booking screen, the first option of every choice is glitched out. (1 v 1, 2 v 2, 3 v 3, etc.). To make a singles match you have to auto fill the match and then edit the wrestlers, but you can’t start one manually.

2. It’s impossible to do any kind of segment, whether in-ring, backstage or video package, that involves only 1 or two wrestlers. (Unless you auto fill, but even editing that is glitched) You can only create a segment involving 3 or more wrestlers.

3. Other random things like the “back” button disappears when you select a wrestler from your roster.

This is super disappointing. It takes the excitement out of crafting a 1v1 or 2v2 rivalry and just takes away from the overall experience.

I do want to say thank you for this endeavor, I’m glad to see a game like this on mobile. I believe this game can be so fun and so much better if these bugs were fixed. I do appreciate this work that you have done

**Developer response:** Hey there, thanks for the review! Unfortunately a small number of users experience the bugs that you're describing, but I've never been able to replicate them myself, so I've never been able to solve them for this game :( 

The latest game however, PWS 2023, does not have these issues (+ a whole host of other features), and I'd be happy to give you a free code for it due to the inconvenience you've experienced- reach out to me at: james@jtsaeed.com

### 2/5 — Game would be perfect…

*2022-07-28, version 2022.5.1*

This game would be perfect… if only I could get past the first show. The game completely crashes after I book the 6th match/angle. Happens as soon as I start a new game. Kinda was looking forward to this too…

### 2/5 — i can’t play it

*2021-02-28, version 2021.3.2*

so I downloaded the game, i unfortunately couldn’t get past the startup screen because i need to have “update account security” which requires me to have a phone number which i don’t have, please remove this

### 2/5 — The button to switch don’t work

*2021-01-07, version 2021.1.3*

Like the idea but button to change to office or settings don’t work

### 3/5 — Starts To Get boring

*2022-12-06, version 2022.5.3*

This game is very fun and exciting but with the lack of things you can do makes it boring so here’s a suggestions list to make players like me more invested. 1.The ability to make your own championship belts because what we have now isn’t enough.(don’t mean to sound greedy just suggestions) 2.New modes like the Royale Rumble,Elimination Chamber,War Games,MITB,and Exploding Barbed Wire Death Match.

**Developer response:** Hey there, thanks for the review! I hear you, and custom championships are in the works for the next game along with new stipulations- and you can already do royal rumbles in this one :)

### 3/5 — Keep encountering this bug

*2022-10-29, version 2022.5.2*

The game is  pretty good overall but major bug isn’t really helping as when I tried to book a tag team match or a one on one match it just doesn’t let me pick anyone

### 3/5 — Updates Needed

*2022-08-11, version 2022.5.1*

Ability to save matches set without starting the show is a HUGE need for this app. 

Sliding down on a notification to text back or something will entirely clear the card that is made and you have to restart. 

You also should be able to see who is already booked for a match on the card instead of being able to book numerous times without realizing.

**Developer response:** Your card shouldn't be cleared as this feature is supported, so I'm sorry to hear that this is happening to you! I will be looking into a fix :)

### 3/5 — Can’t Book 1 on 1 matches

*2022-06-21, version 2022.5.1*

It’s an good game and I had fun with the draft but when I went to book my first show I couldn’t book any 1 on 1 matches or one team versus another I had to make them all multi wrestler/team matches or it would kick me out of the wrestler selection

### 3/5 — Bugs crashes

*2022-06-12, version 2022.5*

The game has been very fun so far but every time when I get to the 7th match the game just crashes and kicks me out

### 5/5 — This game is a good

*2023-05-13*

I like the game because you get to rewrite history in the WWE universe and you get to get different WWE players in legends put my whole different company and I think that this game can do good because I like it so much

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for your kind review! Glad you’re enjoying the game :)

### 5/5 — Nice and fun

*2022-05-22, version 2022.5*

So far been nice and fun, though I wish you didn’t have to get so many people in the draft, my only complaint really

### 5/5 — Megalithic Potential

*2022-03-20, version 2022.3.5*

Stupendous! Keep Going

### 5/5 — APP CRASHING

*2022-03-05, version 2022.3*

I’m a fan of this game so this is for the developer. Ever since updating to the latest version, it’s been glitchy and crashing like crazy. Please fix the issues as this game is great, hence why I didn’t give a low review. Just trying to get it fixed!

**Developer response:** Hey there, thanks for the kind review! The crashes have been resolved as of the latest 2022.3.3 patch :)

### 5/5 — Works with VoiceOver

*2022-02-05, version 2022.2.2*

Not only is this sim fun, the developer actively maintains Vo support. Great app. A+

### 5/5 — More Championship titles

*2022-01-16, version 2022.1.1*

I love the game , it’s amazing but I was wondering if more championship titles (ex United States title , intercontinental title) will be added in the near future ?

### 5/5 — As a fan and COO love this

*2021-11-24, version 2021.8.5*

Hey I have one of the leading NLP companies and am a die hard wrestling fan. Can actually help improving the AI and overall development. Very interested in this. Let me know if you need help ever.

### 5/5 — Fantastic Wrestling Sim!

*2021-09-01, version 2021.7.2*

If you've ever wanted to fantasy book wrestling this is LITERALLY the best game/app to use. You have complete control over the outcomes of matches, heel/face turns and story lines. There are custom rosters you can use for ten bucks which opens up so much potential. The developer is great at responding on Reddit to feedback and has promised continual improvements. Get it, you won’t regret it

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the kind review, I'm really glad you're enjoying it! Stoked to bring you some amazing big updates very soon 🎉

### 5/5 — Dope

*2021-07-24, version 2021.7.2*

I love the yearly subscription option. I usually hate games turning to weekly subs. This one is very fair. I love this game and 10 bucks for a year to support a dope game like this, I’m down. Keep up the great work!

### 5/5 — Forgot email and searching for wrestler

*2021-07-21, version 2021.7.2*

Like I have said before. I am very pleased with the accessibility. I forgot the email that you guys have sent to me so I can submit my ideas but my biggest question is, where is Randy Orton? What is his name called?

**Developer response:** Thank you for the kind review, I'm glad to hear that the VoiceOver support in the app is working well for you! I'm not sure what you mean by this issue, but I'd be happy to try and fix it! If you could Email me at james@eledev.digital that would be great! Tag team titles are coming soon :)

Thanks again,
James
