The gameplay is generally praised for its fun mechanics and engaging arcade-style experience, with many players enjoying the character customization and overall design. However, numerous reviews highlight significant issues such as lag, bugs, and frustrating matchmaking, which detract from the overall experience. While the game has solid mechanics, players express a desire for improvements in stability and balance, particularly regarding pay-to-win elements and connection issues.
“Very fun and deep mechanics are what make me come back to this game.”
“Amazing graphics, gameplay, plenty of characters to choose from, and it's just overall fun to be playing.”
“It's a very fun 3v3 basketball experience with a lot of cool mechanics and fun gameplay.”
“Gameplay is often very laggy, buggy, and glitchy. The waiting time is somehow worse with 5-minute wait times or even more. The all-star character seems impossible to get while the gold that you earn per game is non-existent. It just feels like quicksand when you want to upgrade a skill or level up your characters. The only good thing is that it's free; however, that quickly vanishes when you're getting washed away by pay-to-win players.”
“Edit: Changing to a 1 star.. wish there was a 0 star option. Creator, read this and please make notes. In multiple matches, I've missed multiple wide open shots, whether it's a 3 or a 2 pointer. That's rubbish. In the same matches, I see players who pay to win make those same shots, and it's annoying. There's more to the issue than just mechanics because I take the same shots multiple times and I make more tough shots than wide open shots.”
“Before I talk about how money-hungry this game is, I want to discuss its mechanics. Specifically, the joystick is garbage. In my experience, the joystick would freeze up and stop working for a couple of seconds, which cost me about 5 different games. Another issue is that the start menu would freeze, and I would have to reset the game to get it to work.”

Overall, the graphics of the game receive high praise for their quality and aesthetic appeal, with many users noting beautiful visuals and smooth animations. However, several players report significant lag and performance issues that detract from the experience, particularly when playing online. While the character customization options are appreciated, some users feel that character models could be improved, especially in comparison to other platforms.
“Beautiful graphics, seamless controls, and the perfect amount of character customization, but the servers are a bit unforgiving.”
“Amazing graphics, gameplay, plenty of characters to choose from, and it's just overall fun to be playing.”
“I love the graphics; this is my best basketball game. I like the moves, shots, everything about the game. Good job on the game.”
“The game is kind of like NBA 2K in a way set for a mobile version, although it is kind of laggy. Whenever you're trying to play, your character looks like trash; it looks like it's for my Xbox 360. No offense to anyone that has an Xbox 360 or anything, but my point is that the game is really fine, but the characters just look bad. Please add better graphics, and I did try to turn my graphics up.”
“Very laggy, the graphics settings are pointless. Matchmaking is terrible, buttons are very small, and even after making them bigger, they won't work sometimes and can cost you a game.”
“The game just lags and lags and lags. I have my graphics down and everything, and it still lags.”

“I've uninstalled this game three times because it freezes constantly. I can't even get past the tutorial without the freezing. It's really unfortunate as I would really like to play it.”
“Glitchy, buggy mess of a game. If it isn't glitching out, the game hard crashes. If you're looking for 3v3 basketball, play something else; this game won't even work correctly half the time.”

“The tutorial is tedious, and the music is cliché.”
“Unless the song is from the 1980s, it sounds that bad.”
“This game is so laggy that even when I turn it off, I still hear the music. I do not recommend playing this game at all.”

Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be a significant commitment, with some enjoying the challenge while others feel it is exacerbated by pay-to-win elements that give spending players an advantage. The grind can be tedious, especially for free-to-play users who must invest considerable time to achieve competitive rankings. Despite these frustrations, many players express a strong passion for the game, dedicating daily efforts to progress.
“The game is honestly fun, I love it, but the servers are really laggy and that messes up your matches. Then there is the pay-to-win aspect of the game; honestly, you can have good characters with high ratings as a free-to-play player, but that requires a mad set of grinding and saving, unlike the pay-to-win players who can get certain things due to spending money on the game that gives them an advantage over free-to-play.”
“People are already grinding to get max ranking and it's only day 2.”
“I love this game so much, I have been grinding every single day since I found out about it, no cap!”
