Jun 14, 2021 There is being a constant problem while opening chests , the game quits while opening any chests ( common, rare, epic, legendary ) and when I again enter the game , it says " something went wrong to open the chest ...... your items are added to your account" , very silly .This is happening for couple of weeks . I am requesting MASOMO GAMING TEAM to solve this problem as fast as possible . more -
Jun 16, 2021 Good game but ill keep giving it a one star untill there is an option to turn off holding jump and it making you shoot i cant tell you how many games ive lost because of that setting. Make it optional or remove it completely its annoying. FIX IT PLEASE. Edit: Thank you for noticing this most devolopers dont. more -
Pay to win and Terrible Matchmaking...
Mar 16, 2021 This is the first review I ever write about a game in years. I downloaded the game and I really enjoyed at first. Awesome graphics, gameplay, sound effects and they give a lot of contracts to be able to play with 3 and 4 players in your team at the same time(Only at the beginning of the game). Eventually those contracts will go away (it took me a day to use them all) Then most of the time you will play with 2 players and be matched against with people with 3 or 4 players in their team. Most of the times those people have even paid for characters that are way better than yours and you won’t be able to get those players unless you pay for them. I loved the game at first. The more you win the harder matches it give and sometimes it’s even impossible to win, because even if you have the same skill as the other person, the other person has paid for better stuff. The more I played the more I got annoyed of the game. As I said before, great graphics, gameplay, sounds effects. But the matchmaking and the pay to win factor ruins everything. If you are willing to stay long on this game and have fun at the same time, be ready to spend some money... more -
Jun 20, 2021 I like the game but it's impossible to move up and every 2 or 3 wins, you're gonna lose... it makes it impossible to get passes against your opponent. And when you win, u go up like 7 points, lose 1 match, u drop 60... real fair... more -
Pretty good, but...
Mar 14, 2021 I just got the game today, and I think the game is really fun and addicting, but the matchmaking is kinda unfair. I see how it could be a good idea to go by level based matching, but some guys are just complete pay to wins and use the best characters... Would it be possible to have more of a team rating based system instead? I’m a free-to-play player, and was trying to grind matches to get the 30 win chest. I started off amazing (first 10-12 games), but then some new guys came with James Harden or somebody, and I took my first L. I really like the fact that you can buy back your win streak when you lose, but I lost 4 matches to these OP characters over time, and the price on my final one was so high... I only had 28 of the 30 wins needed. Honestly, I’m kinda triggered that I lost to some dash spamming pay to win players, and could do nothing but watch my streak disappear, as I didn’t have the 500 gems needed... I’m not really too mad at the streak being taken, but I’m mad that it was taken by these people with much better players than me... Sorry if none of this makes any sense, I’m typing kinda angrily right now. Great game tho! more -
Jun 13, 2021 Very fun. Pretty rewarding. Ads are optional, meaning you only have to watch them if you want the rewards from it. But it isn't needed to do good. At times very fun and easy. I love this game. Favorite basketball game on my phone. Thank you more -
Great Game but...
Apr 10, 2021 This is a great game. But here is what is wrong. #1: maybe some replays? That would be really cool. #2 it is pay to win. If you are poor and can’t spend money I wouldn’t recommend this. 1 character is $100 like what!? This is unbelievable, the most I’ve ever spent on a game is $10 and it was worth it, I’m sure this isn’t though... #3 I got a message from someone to challenge me and I clicked on it, and looked at my inbox at guess what? Nothing. They just want you to click on the app and play. #4 Wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy to many ads. They have an ad several times. It gets in the way of the “play match” button sometimes and I have to reload. #5 final: Glitches...I had a 19 win streak and was winning 40-26 with a few seconds left and the other team glitched. The game suddenly ended and I lost. The other team spammed the stupid laughing emoji. Either they hacked or just poor service. Overall, great game but only 4 stars because of these reasons. more -
Jun 18, 2021 Its actually a pretty good game for passing time. But when it comes to fair play, this is the worst. When you start to win four or five games in a row , the next game is with either a very strong opponent or a game of bad connection What is up with that? We can win with strong opponents if we are lucky, but how can you win with bad connection. This is not what we expect right!!!! more -
Fun but expensive
Feb 9, 2021 Definitely a fun game that I’ve really enjoyed since downloading a few days about. The biggest downside is that you definitely need to spend money often if you want to be competitive. Tokens to play (coach “contracts”) don’t come nearly frequently enough unless you buy them. Super powers cost a lot of diamonds, but without them you can’t win close games. And you’ll need to buy A LOT of chests or players to build a strong team. I’ve also run into several glitches that have resulted in me losing the game. The last game I played, none of my super powers worked, and I lost by 5. Another glitch I’ve noticed recently is that it says it takes 4 energy bars to shoot a 3-pointer. Yet some of my opponents have consistently shot them with 2 bars. So those types of things can definitely be aggravating. Especially if you’ve spent more years on the game, which you will have if you intend on winning ever. Again, fun game, but get ready to drop some cash if you don’t want to lose constantly. more -
Jun 15, 2021 Game is not bad. But there are of course ads and we could not get rid of it because its an online game,every round there will be an ad is very irritating. Game are pretty unfair from time to time where the trophy diffrents are very big. more

Just A Greedy Game that also SCAMS YOU
Mar 18, 2021 So first of all, there are probably like 20 ads per min. AND YOU HAVE TO PAY to get rid of them. Like I press the play button to start the match and an add pops up. I go to the store and an add pops up and ETC... So it takes so much fun and it’s so ANNOYING! Then sometimes the game glitches, (THIS IS THE WORST). So I go into my match too play. Then the OPPOSING team, is LAGGY. So you would think, if they have lag it’s fine, NO that’s not how this game works, If the OPPOSING team has lag, they have an advantage actualy. First, they move weirdly and just score. 2. They TELEPORT 3. SOMTIMES THE GAME SAYS THIS MATCH WAS GOING THROUGH CONNECTIONS AND YOU HAVE ATOUMATICALLY LOST. Like what the heck! They were lagging so why should I lose. It even says they were the ones lagging. Another thing is, the game makes you wait to play. You have a certain amount of plays you can do. Like 20/10, but evrytime you play, it takes one of like 19/10. Once you keep going and done will all of them. It takes like 2 hours for 1 play. Like cmon now. The last reason why this game is bad is because it’s PAY TO WIN. Like when I just started I was having fun. Then like my Fourth Game EVER, Some pay to win team with OP characters comes in. THEY HAD LIKE JAMES HARDEN, And other PRO characters. How do I beat that when I just started, The matchmaking system is so messed up as well. So basically, this is why you don’t but this game. more -
Just an ordinary game that wants money
Feb 6, 2021 There are too many adds, and you have to pay to get them removed. Also I find it funny how even though everyone you face is bots you still have to wait to find a match. Also you can’t continually keep on playing the game you have to wait, kinda like clash of clans. This aspect does not fit the type of gameplay in the app. I also feel like whenever you get a winning streak they purposely bump up the A.I to be stronger. I could 26-13 someone then a couple wins later go 7-17. Even some moves don’t work even though they have previously. I Know it’s A.I. 100% because whenever you shoot immediately afterwards the other play jumps up to catch it. This literally happens every time and instantly so it’s obviously A.I. I would recommend to dial down on the adds and actually match people up with real people. I know the games not that popular and that’s why we have to face A.I but I want to actually face real people it ruins the game facing bots. Long story short, just a game that looks fun at first but when you download youre bombarded with adds and not even that good of a game design. It’s so simple yet so much wrong with this game. If you do enjoy it, I assume you have a love-hate relationship with it. more -
Jun 1, 2021 I used to be a huge fan, but after the latest update I will uninstall it. They said it became fairer, but it's exactly the opposite! You end up playing with opponents that might have similar 'carreer points' to you, but their teams are full of 'super stars' with extremely high rankings, so no chance to beat them! Each loss is -40 points and then you have to play a series of boring games with much lower players or even worse stupid Bots!! Each win is only 5-10 points. An extremely unfair game!! more -
Jun 15, 2021 It's so frustrating I didn't know what happened but I'm unable to add more players to my team and I've reached met the requirements, as a matter of fact I can only use a single player and now my team is weak I can't even win a single game, I don't of this had to do with some settings or what But it's so annoying why does it have to be like that I reinstall the app and it's still the same thing more -
Great idea, pay to win tho.
Mar 16, 2021 It’s a great game, and at first I loved it. But it got to a point everyone I played who paid for the season pass could steal anytime from me they would be double jump in the air and I’ll be on the ground and steal from me, if I jump even once and someone is on the ground I will not be able to steal from them. Also if I was playing someone with a pass I would be flat on the ground like them then move in for a steal and just go straight through them, but if they did it they would steal it every time? It made absolutely zero sense. None of this happened if I played someone without a pass tho, it was fair and not one sided. Also if I played someone with a pass they were blocking my three when they ball was clearly over there head and I would not be able to block theirs even sometimes swatting with my face directly into the ball. Just not a fair “goes both ways” game. Started off thrilled, then ended off being the first ever app I wrote a bad review on. Hope it improves in the future! more -
Jun 18, 2021 This game is trash. The opponents can have a weak wifi and they still get to play. Now the problem with this is that they teleport and they can also score and keep the ball. So they can keep scoring. My last few matches has had this problem. Please fix this. more -
Jun 7, 2021 This game is totally rip off. After a while when you grow up to stop you from getting new level awards, server or other players play unfairly. Some buttons doesn't work or you can not jump when your energy is full. It's totally rip off. You have to lost the game and your points to be forced to buy them. I hate this cheating behaviour. more -
Jun 12, 2021 Gave this 2stars because eversince i updated it..i keep getting paired with players who have alot superpowers whilst i only have one or two ,some of the player im paired with have a much higher ranking than me and have superstars in their team. They dont pair you with people who are similar to you!!Basketball Arena you lied to us! more -
Trash
Mar 12, 2021 Do not get this game I got it for fun because a bunch of youtubers were talking about it and I spend 20 bucks on it and the pay to win is ridiculous you will lose to people who just spend more money than you did the game mechanics are not great you can easily get the ball taken from you if somone has a better character it’s just not fair the matchmaking is also bad I always get into game with people who have probably spent around 100$ on upgrades and characters and I have the basics that’s the only reason I spent money was to try and catch up but it’s a money grab if you play that game DONT SPEND MONEY IT IS NOT WORTH IT the new tournament is also not fair like I said earlier there is no matchmaking you could go agains somone who has been playing for years and you got the game 10 minutes ago I got on a 39 win streak and was top 1000 and then I get into a game with somone who has clearly spent money on the game and got stomped Do Not Play This Game more -
Jun 23, 2021 This Game is full of bots... Mostly you get paired with the bots and obviously you lose to them as they're Perfect and don't make mistakes

Basketball arena
Apr 2, 2021 This game is great it’s got ton of exiting new characters and who doesn’t love a good game of basketball, anyway it’s also got a coach that helps you along the way and if you feel like playing basketball but you don’t want to get up this is what you need basketball arena, it is even more exciting and thrilling I just have a blast with it and you can earn and upgrade new characters now for you guys who can’t go any where like you are literally stuck home because of this covid muck play basketball arena you can still have fun and play with friends and family and have hilarious, thrilling, and most wonderful times it’s just the best thing ever. P.S. you guys should totally download this game now excuse me while go back to the app and play BASKETBALL ARENA!! more -
Cool
Mar 15, 2021 This game is one OF THE BEST GAMES I HAVE EVER PLAYED. Most reviews I read people said it was kinda bad and that you had to pay to win but I don’t know if that’s true but If it is that would be pretty bad. So far in the game I’m getting a lot of coins, diamonds and a lot of other cool stuff you can get for just one add. Getting all this stuff for just an add is AWSOME but can be a way to kind of cheat to get stuff and know one likes cheating unless your a hacker, old man or just a player that can’t win a match. But I am not trying to offend anyone that is a hacker or old man but i guess if your a pro and love the game keep playing and win. AND EVERY ONE THAT DOES NOT HAVE BASKETBALL ARENA DOWNLOAD IT NOW ITS A GREAT APP. more -
One of my top games🤩
Mar 25, 2021 This game is one of my favorite games. If you want a fun basketball game than you want this game. There are different people and they all have different styles⭐️. There are also different stadiums. There are 3 different coaches. There is only one thing I would request, there needs to be more characters. There are real people in this game I have seen people say there are AI but that’s not true. You can add friends and go against them. The characters in this game are not realistic but I like it. There are also different powers you can do on people in the game. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ more -
Really good
Mar 7, 2021 This game is really good, at first I thought, oh I’ll probably play it for a while then delete. But I’ve had it for a while now and it’s really fun, every time you win it feels so rewarding. And getting rewards in game is constant and easy, I really recommend this game. Plus the characters look cartoony. The only problem I have is that for me, occasionally everyone I get a reward from the pass my game crashes and when I get back in the game, the reward has a check mark on it even if I didn’t get anything, but apart from that really good game more

Great Game but...
Apr 10, 2021 This is a great game. But here is what is wrong. #1: maybe some replays? That would be really cool. #2 it is pay to win. If you are poor and can’t spend money I wouldn’t recommend this. 1 character is $100 like what!?

What a fun game
Jan 8, 2021 The game is one of the best mine games there are. Extremely fun game of skill and trickery . I only really have 3 things I wish where changed. 1) whatever changes that where just made that is making you miss more 3 points should be reversed. Often times you cannot pass certain players on court and 3 point is your only option. There is ways this can get blocked if you do it wrong but now it’s just missing more (when “long shot attempt” pops up) for the energy that is burned and for these other factors whatever just made 3 pointers harder to hit should be reversed. 2)I wish super powers where more common without buying them. I get games have to have purchasable upgrades . But super powers are huge factor of the game and getting more when you get them or just getting more commonly would be nice. 3) I wish wish wiiiiisssh there was more than 1 type of game when it came to the length. 10 min games on here would be fun . more -
Developers, please hear me out
Nov 27, 2020 I love this game! I just got it today and I have already learned the controls and all. I even love the team customization and the creativity of it. So now you might be wondering why I didn’t give it a 5 star, right? The matchmaking system is totally screwed. For my first 15 matches I got fair matchups and enjoyed the games. But after that I’d get matched with people who clearly had characters that outmatched mine. Even though they have a level 1-5 and so on system, this doesn’t always help. I’m currently level 3 as I started today and I always get matched with level 4 people with the best character in the game. If you are gonna make this game pay to win, can you put the people who pay against the people who pay? I only ask this so people who grind have a fair and fun experience. Thanks! more -
Jun 21, 2021 I love the game it's so fun but has some ads but it's a great game so you haters out there are wrong so please have fun and enjoy this beautiful game and yes the ads are annoying but the game is super fun -
Jun 4, 2021 It is really great game!!!but when we want to pass season pass It doesn't work in some county and I want to Arena to fixe this problem thank you

Jun 14, 2021 There is being a constant problem while opening chests , the game quits while opening any chests ( common, rare, epic, legendary ) and when I again enter the game , it says " something went wrong to open the chest ...... your items are added to your account" , very silly .This is happening for couple of weeks . I am requesting MASOMO GAMING TEAM to solve this problem as fast as possible . more -
Pay to win and Terrible Matchmaking...
Mar 16, 2021 This is the first review I ever write about a game in years. I downloaded the game and I really enjoyed at first. Awesome graphics, gameplay, sound effects and they give a lot of contracts to be able to play with 3 and 4 players in your team at the same time(Only at the beginning of the game). Eventually those contracts will go away (it took me a day to use them all) Then most of the time you will play with 2 players and be matched against with people with 3 or 4 players in their team. Most of the times those people have even paid for characters that are way better than yours and you won’t be able to get those players unless you pay for them. I loved the game at first. The more you win the harder matches it give and sometimes it’s even impossible to win, because even if you have the same skill as the other person, the other person has paid for better stuff. The more I played the more I got annoyed of the game. As I said before, great graphics, gameplay, sounds effects. But the matchmaking and the pay to win factor ruins everything. If you are willing to stay long on this game and have fun at the same time, be ready to spend some money... more -
Jun 20, 2021 I like the game but it's impossible to move up and every 2 or 3 wins, you're gonna lose... it makes it impossible to get passes against your opponent. And when you win, u go up like 7 points, lose 1 match, u drop 60... real fair... more -
Pretty good, but...
Mar 14, 2021 I just got the game today, and I think the game is really fun and addicting, but the matchmaking is kinda unfair. I see how it could be a good idea to go by level based matching, but some guys are just complete pay to wins and use the best characters... Would it be possible to have more of a team rating based system instead? I’m a free-to-play player, and was trying to grind matches to get the 30 win chest. I started off amazing (first 10-12 games), but then some new guys came with James Harden or somebody, and I took my first L. I really like the fact that you can buy back your win streak when you lose, but I lost 4 matches to these OP characters over time, and the price on my final one was so high... I only had 28 of the 30 wins needed. Honestly, I’m kinda triggered that I lost to some dash spamming pay to win players, and could do nothing but watch my streak disappear, as I didn’t have the 500 gems needed... I’m not really too mad at the streak being taken, but I’m mad that it was taken by these people with much better players than me... Sorry if none of this makes any sense, I’m typing kinda angrily right now. Great game tho! more -
Jun 18, 2021 Its actually a pretty good game for passing time. But when it comes to fair play, this is the worst. When you start to win four or five games in a row , the next game is with either a very strong opponent or a game of bad connection What is up with that? We can win with strong opponents if we are lucky, but how can you win with bad connection. This is not what we expect right!!!! more -
Fun but expensive
Feb 9, 2021 Definitely a fun game that I’ve really enjoyed since downloading a few days about. The biggest downside is that you definitely need to spend money often if you want to be competitive. Tokens to play (coach “contracts”) don’t come nearly frequently enough unless you buy them. Super powers cost a lot of diamonds, but without them you can’t win close games. And you’ll need to buy A LOT of chests or players to build a strong team. I’ve also run into several glitches that have resulted in me losing the game. The last game I played, none of my super powers worked, and I lost by 5. Another glitch I’ve noticed recently is that it says it takes 4 energy bars to shoot a 3-pointer. Yet some of my opponents have consistently shot them with 2 bars. So those types of things can definitely be aggravating. Especially if you’ve spent more years on the game, which you will have if you intend on winning ever. Again, fun game, but get ready to drop some cash if you don’t want to lose constantly. more -
Jun 15, 2021 Game is not bad. But there are of course ads and we could not get rid of it because its an online game,every round there will be an ad is very irritating. Game are pretty unfair from time to time where the trophy diffrents are very big. more -
Good game but needs work...
Apr 25, 2021 There are definitely a lot of lag and matchmaking issues. I face more bots than I do people and the moment I play against a real person, they spam. I hate the double points power up because it makes the game easier and I’ve lost several times off of that power up alone. There are also massive gaps in stats because people pay to be good at a free game. There should be a cool down on the dash because people spam it so much. There also needs to be a better matchmaking system because anyone above level 19 has to go against people that are level 20-30 and that’s a massive gap in levels due to how long it takes to level up past that due to every other level before that only being able to face people that are a couple levels above you. I have fun playing this game but the moment I run into someone who dropped $200 dollars on it, the game instantly becomes annoying. more -
Pay to play
Apr 3, 2021 Very similar to all the other reviews. Incredibly fun game that’s perfect to pick up and play for a few minutes or play for 2 hours. Once you start to hit level 8 the game is completely pay to play. I started off on a 20 game win streak and won the first level championship then you get to a point where you literally can’t even move past people without losing the ball. It’s not even competitive it’s just straight impossible. If you can somehow keep it competitive with these p2p players then you just get wrecked by the superpowers they bought. Really enjoyed this game for the first few days but I’m probably just about done with it. I understand you need to make money but this is straight EA. My suggestion would be to make superpowers free and let people buy the players (you can only use one a game anyway). Or do the matchmaking based on team skill not level. more -
Jun 17, 2021 I don't know I like it alot but there's alot of bots that just have the same pattern i don't even get matched up with any players this game is probably dead but it's just boring and i feel like you should put some mini games

Great idea, pay to win tho.
Mar 16, 2021 It’s a great game, and at first I loved it. But it got to a point everyone I played who paid for the season pass could steal anytime from me they would be double jump in the air and I’ll be on the ground and steal from me, if I jump even once and someone is on the ground I will not be able to steal from them. Also if I was playing someone with a pass I would be flat on the ground like them then move in for a steal and just go straight through them, but if they did it they would steal it every time? It made absolutely zero sense. None of this happened if I played someone without a pass tho, it was fair and not one sided. Also if I played someone with a pass they were blocking my three when they ball was clearly over there head and I would not be able to block theirs even sometimes swatting with my face directly into the ball. Just not a fair “goes both ways” game. Started off thrilled, then ended off being the first ever app I wrote a bad review on. Hope it improves in the future! more -
Jun 12, 2021 Gave this 2stars because eversince i updated it..i keep getting paired with players who have alot superpowers whilst i only have one or two ,some of the player im paired with have a much higher ranking than me and have superstars in their team. They dont pair you with people who are similar to you!!Basketball Arena you lied to us! more

Just A Greedy Game that also SCAMS YOU
Mar 18, 2021 So first of all, there are probably like 20 ads per min. AND YOU HAVE TO PAY to get rid of them. Like I press the play button to start the match and an add pops up. I go to the store and an add pops up and ETC... So it takes so much fun and it’s so ANNOYING! Then sometimes the game glitches, (THIS IS THE WORST). So I go into my match too play. Then the OPPOSING team, is LAGGY. So you would think, if they have lag it’s fine, NO that’s not how this game works, If the OPPOSING team has lag, they have an advantage actualy. First, they move weirdly and just score. 2. They TELEPORT 3. SOMTIMES THE GAME SAYS THIS MATCH WAS GOING THROUGH CONNECTIONS AND YOU HAVE ATOUMATICALLY LOST. Like what the heck! They were lagging so why should I lose. It even says they were the ones lagging. Another thing is, the game makes you wait to play. You have a certain amount of plays you can do. Like 20/10, but evrytime you play, it takes one of like 19/10. Once you keep going and done will all of them. It takes like 2 hours for 1 play. Like cmon now. The last reason why this game is bad is because it’s PAY TO WIN. Like when I just started I was having fun. Then like my Fourth Game EVER, Some pay to win team with OP characters comes in. THEY HAD LIKE JAMES HARDEN, And other PRO characters. How do I beat that when I just started, The matchmaking system is so messed up as well. So basically, this is why you don’t but this game. more -
Just an ordinary game that wants money
Feb 6, 2021 There are too many adds, and you have to pay to get them removed. Also I find it funny how even though everyone you face is bots you still have to wait to find a match. Also you can’t continually keep on playing the game you have to wait, kinda like clash of clans. This aspect does not fit the type of gameplay in the app. I also feel like whenever you get a winning streak they purposely bump up the A.I to be stronger. I could 26-13 someone then a couple wins later go 7-17. Even some moves don’t work even though they have previously. I Know it’s A.I. 100% because whenever you shoot immediately afterwards the other play jumps up to catch it. This literally happens every time and instantly so it’s obviously A.I. I would recommend to dial down on the adds and actually match people up with real people. I know the games not that popular and that’s why we have to face A.I but I want to actually face real people it ruins the game facing bots. Long story short, just a game that looks fun at first but when you download youre bombarded with adds and not even that good of a game design. It’s so simple yet so much wrong with this game. If you do enjoy it, I assume you have a love-hate relationship with it. more -
Jun 1, 2021 I used to be a huge fan, but after the latest update I will uninstall it. They said it became fairer, but it's exactly the opposite! You end up playing with opponents that might have similar 'carreer points' to you, but their teams are full of 'super stars' with extremely high rankings, so no chance to beat them! Each loss is -40 points and then you have to play a series of boring games with much lower players or even worse stupid Bots!! Each win is only 5-10 points. An extremely unfair game!! more -
Jun 15, 2021 It's so frustrating I didn't know what happened but I'm unable to add more players to my team and I've reached met the requirements, as a matter of fact I can only use a single player and now my team is weak I can't even win a single game, I don't of this had to do with some settings or what But it's so annoying why does it have to be like that I reinstall the app and it's still the same thing more -
Jun 18, 2021 This game is trash. The opponents can have a weak wifi and they still get to play. Now the problem with this is that they teleport and they can also score and keep the ball. So they can keep scoring. My last few matches has had this problem. Please fix this. more -
Jun 7, 2021 This game is totally rip off. After a while when you grow up to stop you from getting new level awards, server or other players play unfairly. Some buttons doesn't work or you can not jump when your energy is full. It's totally rip off. You have to lost the game and your points to be forced to buy them. I hate this cheating behaviour. more -
Trash
Mar 12, 2021 Do not get this game I got it for fun because a bunch of youtubers were talking about it and I spend 20 bucks on it and the pay to win is ridiculous you will lose to people who just spend more money than you did the game mechanics are not great you can easily get the ball taken from you if somone has a better character it’s just not fair the matchmaking is also bad I always get into game with people who have probably spent around 100$ on upgrades and characters and I have the basics that’s the only reason I spent money was to try and catch up but it’s a money grab if you play that game DONT SPEND MONEY IT IS NOT WORTH IT the new tournament is also not fair like I said earlier there is no matchmaking you could go agains somone who has been playing for years and you got the game 10 minutes ago I got on a 39 win streak and was top 1000 and then I get into a game with somone who has clearly spent money on the game and got stomped Do Not Play This Game more -
Jun 23, 2021 This Game is full of bots... Mostly you get paired with the bots and obviously you lose to them as they're Perfect and don't make mistakes -
Update messed it up
Jun 2, 2021 Update changed a lot of things. You gotta get tickets now just to play a game. Can’t earn as much tickets, only 3 in a 24 hour period so you get to play 3 matches in 24 hours. What’s worse is you’re usually matched with people who paid tons of money to upgrade their character so you hardly ever win. Chests is once in 24 hours but even then, the best thing about that is getting extra coaches to play more game. The characters require a ton of cards just to upgrade after level 3. Stay away from this game and find another one. It used to be good but now theyre just looking to rob young,dumb children of their $. It’s no longer fun like it used to be. It’s usually what happens when a successful game wants to make more money. Sad but it’s the reality of these greedy developers more -
Awful customer service
Dec 14, 2020 The game had an update where they added super chests and changed the entire career system. They then essentially said I had to double the amount of fans/trophies I earned to catch up with the new update. They also added something called a super chest and when I reached out to support about this issue they were very rude and proceeded to tell me that I had already earned the rewards that they added to the game, making it impossible for me to get them. This was simply a boldfaced lie because the new super chests that they added, said that I had already earned several of them in career. If they were a brand new chest how is it possible that I earned them? Customer Service was very rude about this issue on top of the fact that they lied. I would not give this company a second of your time or money more
What’s Groovy
I love this game!!! It is so fun and I love that you can steal the ball like in real basketball, and that you get different amounts of points depending on where you shoot like in real basketball. I also like that you can unlock different characters and stuff, and that you can upgrade them because adds more fun to it. One of my favorite parts also is that you can friend people and challenge them ‘cause one of my friends has it, and we have so much fun playing each other. The game is so cool! I do have one recommendation though: Could you add more girl characters????? I know that guys are typically more into basketball, but I’m a girl, and I love it. Also, I read one review saying that when you play games it’s A.I, but I literally play my friend and my brother in here so that’s so not true.

What’s Subpar
I highly advice against getting this game. You don't actually play against real players, you just compare scores with them. In this game, everything is already set before the game starts. The girl character always steals the ball when you get past her or she gets past you and the opponent spams the abilities at the perfect time in the first 10 seconds. Every match is the exact same, the only thing that is different is wether the game decides to let you win or not.
