Gameplay is generally smooth, allowing for easy rallies between players, but some users feel that the mechanics limit movement options. There is a desire for more customization features to enhance the overall gameplay experience.
“Gameplay is smooth and it's easy to keep up a rally between you and your opponent.”
“I would like to see more options available to us so we can customize our gameplay experiences any way we want, like some other reviews have mentioned.”
“If the devs wanted to improve this, one of the thumb sticks could be used to move you around the court, but I think the underlying game mechanics probably hinder this.”
“However, I would like to see more options available to us so we can customize our gameplay experiences any way we want, like some other reviews have mentioned.”

The graphics in the game are supported by competent developers who provide regular updates, including enhanced graphical settings. However, players have reported persistent frame rate dips across different graphics driver versions, indicating ongoing performance issues.
“I've also run this game on two separate graphics driver versions (AMD 17.12.1 and the current version, 18.3.2) and the FPS dips are still there.”

The game is priced at $15, which has led to some criticism regarding the presence of ads, as players find it unusual for a paid title to include advertisements. However, the creative integration of ads, such as displaying them on in-game billboards, has been noted positively by some users.
“This is a paid game, and at $15, it is a bit weird to see ads in a game.”
“I know they probably need to get their revenue back; heck, the way they implemented the ads is pretty creative being on the billboard in-game and all.”
