The game suffers from frequent and severe stability issues, including glitches that cause freezes, crashes, and incorrect gameplay outcomes like outs being called unfairly. Many users report that these problems disrupt gameplay regularly, often requiring app restarts and diminishing overall enjoyment. Despite the game's fun aspects, the persistent bugs significantly impact stability and player experience.
- “Now every game I play, it glitches out and freezes and you can't do anything but close the application and start over.”
- “Very glitchy, always freezes up, making it very hard to even exit out of the game after extended gameplay. The game just does what it wants to with the pitching no matter what you do, I'm done with this game.”
- “Several times I have hit balls off the wall and the game freezes and calls me out.”
gameplay
41 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
39% positive mentions, 46% neutral mentions, 15% negative mentions
The gameplay is generally described as simple, fun, and accessible, though many users criticize the pitching and fielding mechanics as glitchy, unrealistic, and frustrating. Loading times, crashes, and pay-to-win elements also negatively impact the experience for some players. Despite these issues, several reviews praise the gameplay for being entertaining and addicting, especially for casual players or those less familiar with baseball.
- “Simple, fun, super easy gameplay and doesn't have all the backend management!”
- “The overall gameplay is simple, easy and addicting, but the animations and sound effects are too repetitive.”
- “Great gameplay and no need to pay to play.”
- “Base running mechanics are horrendous, and the fielding is baffling at times.”
- “Very glitchy, always freezes up, making it very hard to even exit out of the game after extended gameplay. The game just does what it wants with the pitching no matter what you do.”
- “1 star because of lazy mechanics: when you hit the ball, the opposite team just teleports to it half the time. For example, the first baseman suddenly appears between first and second base but was on base before I hit. Also, expect to constantly get out because 99% of the time it's an infield fly, line drive right to the base, or outfield fly.”
monetization
36 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
17% positive mentions, 8% neutral mentions, 75% negative mentions
Monetization in the game is heavily criticized for aggressive pay-to-win mechanics and expensive in-app purchases, with many players feeling it has become a cash grab especially at higher levels. While some praise the absence or minimal use of intrusive ads and optional transactions, others report frequent, long, or unskippable ads that hinder gameplay. Overall, the monetization strategy detracts from the experience, frustrating free-to-play users despite a solid game foundation.
- “Other than that, no ads, in-game transactions are optional, can't be too mad.”
- “Got to collect players, join clubs, no ads, play as many games as you want with nothing stopping you from growing.”
- “No ads, you don't have to spend money to get prizes.”
- “It also is becoming more and more of a cash grab, as they add more "content" that just requires you to upgrade players you would otherwise not need.”
- “The most recent update which we waited 2 months for changed things for the worse, made the game more of a cash grab.”
- “Game itself is great & entertaining but once you hit pro tier the difficulty drastically increases and the true color of the game shows as cash grab pay 2 win, can't move up no matter good on timing it, nor skill, the match up will run you down to the ground; it will crush you as a free to play player. You're stuck unless you start paying top dollar for the gamble packs.”
