### 2/5 — Addictif mais ….

*2022-01-27*

Commencé en 2016 et toujours sur le jeu malgré les nombreuses mises à jour fort discutables et les magouilles en tout genre de certains joueurs ou voir même, l’organisation mafieuse de certaines guildes …. Bref, ce qui me fait tenir c’est ce système de guilde qui permet de lier des amitiés avec d’autres joueurs. Le jeu en lui même n’est pas super réaliste … beaucoup de phase de jeu sont irréelles. Genre, votre ouvreur qui perce et qui va taper un drop juste avant de se faire plaquer …. 
Côté support …. C’est quasi le néant …. Peu de réponse aux tickets ou alors en propos hallucinants. Forum totalement mort …. Heureusement que la plupart des guildes ont créé leur propre espace de discussions sur Messenger, WhatsApp ou autres ….
Je suis toujours sur le jeu plus par habitude que par passion …. Dommage.

### 3/5 — Récupérer son compte après changement de téléphone

*2021-07-31*

J ai ouvert plusieurs ticket afin de récupérer mon compte après être passé à Adroid et venant d un iPhone ... aucune réponse du support ! Pouvez vous solutionner mon problème ?

### 2/5 — Lack of support

*2020-08-07, version 7.21*

Enjoy the game most of the time. Frustrating bugs that never get fixed though and lack of response to support tickets hence low rating.

### 1/5 — Avoid

*2020-05-14*

Awful customer service. If you’re going to play this then avoid any in app purchases, it’s run by a company called Sweet Nitro who are awful. A few friends of mine have played and we have all experienced terrible level of support where they even ask for payments.

Shame as it’s actually a enjoyable game

### 1/5 — Pay-to-win

*2020-05-06*

Just another pay-to-win game, nothing more. Inconsistent matches, glitches and terrible customer support. Don’t waste your time or money.

### 1/5 — Appalling Customer Service

*2020-02-01*

I have played this game for years but have just asked to be removed due to the appalling level of customer service. I am not alone in this opinion. 

Sweet Nitro has become renowned for their amateur approach to customer service, and to an extent the way the game is programmed. After all these years one would expect there to be a more polished product but, frankly, the quality of the game reflects what is a badly operated business. 

I can go into immense detail about the libellous messages many players have received from Sweet Nitro when one raises a complaint. They cannot take criticism and respond with insults and extremely childish behaviour. It’s like talking to a petulant teenager. 

Whilst the game is quite fun, there are much better games out there and much better companies supporting those games.

My recommendation, find another game, balancing all pros and the cons, it just isn’t worth downloading.

### 1/5 — Dreadful Support

*2020-01-25*

Games good at times however regular game play changes lead to inconsistencies. Developer and support team are rude inconsiderate and would be fired by any reputable company who gave a dam about anything else but ripping people off. Game play errors are ignored, rules changed to suit developers guilds, and when you point any of these sort of things out all of a sudden you pick up injuries and form goes out the window. Basically the games like Saracens... great to play but corrupt and disgusting beneath the surface!

### 4/5 — Bon jeu !!

*2019-12-21*

Mais ce serai bien qu’il ai un système d’échange de joueurs avec des amis

### 3/5 — Rugby

*2019-12-01*

This game is ok because when you play a match you don’t know what team you are apart from that it is great

### 1/5 — Abandon Ware?

*2019-10-13, version 7.21*

We as a community are disappointed with Sweet Nitro. No recent upgrades but they have launched rugby manager 19. So we can start again. Well done guy

### 1/5 — Poor

*2019-10-09*

Developers ruin the game and giving to much influence to the guild la cagnaise who manipulate the game to suit them and let’s not forget there match fixing to manipulate league positions oper really ruins this game by making ridicules changes all the time! If it ain’t broke don’t fix it! Also the developers have there own teams who make adjustments to suit them! 1 guild in particular fix matches to screw over other teams, because they’re cheating french cu*ts avoid coz it’s not worth your time

### 1/5 — It deleted my save

*2026-03-23, version 8.04*

Download the game and now my 10 year old save is gone

### 1/5 — Aucune cohérence

*2025-06-25*

Je perd contre des mecs qui ont tous leurs joueurs moins fort que moi de 300 étoiles… je perd toute mes mêlées contre des équipes ayant des centres et ailiers à la place de leurs piliers… soit vous gagnez soit vous perdez toute vos touches / mêlée pas possible d’en avoir 1-2 dans un match soit tout soit rien … c’est bête avec un système de simulation de match cohérent ça pourrait être un super jeu mais la simulation est une abomination sans nom… les mecs peuvent faire 80m seuls pour taper un drop alors que le 15 adverse est 10m derrière… enfin voilà une purge sans nom

### 1/5 — No match

*2025-06-17, version 7.55*

I was expecting to play a match but did not.
Booo

### 1/5 — Na dis game is just a joke

*2024-12-27, version 7.55*

Not addictive plus ya just can’t access your team!!! Just what gives?

### 1/5 — Nothing works anymore

*2022-06-16, version 7.50*

Absolutely horrible nothing works can’t buy anything can’t update anything can’t buy new players can’t train players totally ruined everything

### 1/5 — Has gone downhill again

*2021-11-05*

I’ve played this game for some years and it always has had a tendency to oscillate between good and bad. After some months of good we seem to have moved to bad again. The latest version has changed game play in such a way as to be less rugby like and has created even more opportunities for cheating than previously. I have now decided to call it a day with this game. A great shame as the game has potential.

### 1/5 — Too many cheats

*2021-08-27*

Avoid this. There are too many cheats. Players with  Very strong teams are able to somehow lower their rating by using and completely thrash teams that have an equal or higher rating.
Sweet Nitro know about this but won’t do anything about it.

### 1/5 — Pay to play

*2021-02-19, version 7.21*

Another of those dreadful games where you have to wait to build things or pay. Such a poisonous business model.

### 1/5 — Confused

*2020-11-24, version 7.21*

If you like ruby and are looking for a rugby game I suggest rugby nations 19. I also don’t understand anything but the fact that you build stuff and upgrade it

### 1/5 — Used to be good

*2020-05-29*

Been playing 2 years but now my team is losing to teams with inferior statistics making it pointless to train and now that the training time’s have been changed this game is a pile of dog$41t. My team has maxed out scrum stats and gets flogged at scrum time by lesser teams. Deleted game in frustration

Great game

### 5/5 — Great rugby strategy game

*2019-10-25*

Lots of fun. Everything you could think of about running a rugby team.

Wish developers would come up with something self-contained like the Football Manager games.  Would definitely spend money on that.
