Gameplay in this tennis simulation game is a mixed bag, with players noting that it diverges significantly from real tennis mechanics, requiring a steep learning curve to master its quirks. While the game offers both arcade and simulation modes, the mechanics can feel unrealistic and frustrating, particularly for seasoned players. However, those willing to invest time may find the gameplay rewarding, with improved physics and a fluid experience, though issues like bugs and repetitive elements remain points of contention.
- “If you are willing to spend hundreds of hours mastering this game's every quirk and mechanic, yes, you can get better and enjoy yourself.”
- “The gameplay is fluid, convincing, and very rewarding when you win.”
- “Gameplay in simulation mode now feels very natural and net attacks can be done with a much better feel of realism.”
- “This game is so far removed from tennis due to its mechanics and its quirks and errors that you have to relearn everything you know to come anywhere close to being competent, and I simply don't want to do that.”
- “There are several key things wrong with the mechanics of the game, the most grueling two being the force calculation and the trajectory calculation after impact with the racket.”
- “It's based on tennis, but the way the mechanics work forces you to completely relearn everything you know about playing real tennis, and this comes from someone who has played tennis for over 12 years.”

The reviews indicate that while the game offers a potentially engaging career or story mode, players have experienced significant technical issues, particularly with tracking on the Quest 2. Users express excitement about the game's features and improvements but highlight the need for better performance and stability to fully enjoy the narrative aspects. Overall, the story element seems promising, but technical challenges may hinder the experience.
- “You might like a career or story mode.”
- “It's the same story with your forehand and backhand strokes.”
- “Well, I was testing the game and it didn't work well as described by so many users here.”
- “You might like a career or story mode, but it feels lacking.”
- “It's the same story with your forehand and backhand strokes, which makes it repetitive.”

Overall, the game's optimization is generally praised for its smooth performance, with users reporting high frame rates and no significant technical issues. However, some players note that the animations and graphics are basic and suggest that further optimization could enhance movement mechanics, particularly for more fluid control during gameplay.
- “The game runs smoothly.”
- “No technical issues so far, the performance of the game is butter smooth since I started playing it on my previous EVGA 1080 FTW and now I have a much better card.”
- “Perfect performance - got 144 fps with index resolution at 250%.”
- “The animations and the graphics in general are very basic. Considering that the whole level is just a tennis court and its immediate surroundings, the graphics could look photorealistic without a significant hit on performance.”
- “Maybe the game could use a bit more optimization because it feels a bit janky at certain times.”
- “Moving options might need some optimizations in future updates. I would love to move around by tilting the thumbstick like in first-person shooters to move/strafe in all directions while still being able to look and focus on the ball. At the moment, you run by moving your hands like running in real life, but you can only run in the direction you are looking, which makes it difficult to maintain focus on the ball when running sideways or backwards.”
stability

The game's stability is a significant concern, with users reporting frequent bugs and freezing issues, particularly during matches. While some animations function correctly, the overall experience is marred by crashes that prevent progression, leaving players frustrated and unable to fully engage with the game.
- “On top of all this, it's a buggy mess.”
- “I can't get past the second match; it just freezes on me.”
- “I obviously can't tell as the game freezes on me before I can proceed any further, but I would like to ask the dev if you can actually eventually rank up to 1 now and play the top players?”

Players express a strong desire for the option to completely turn off the in-game music, particularly the loud techno tracks that play during and after matches, which many find inappropriate for the game's atmosphere. While the intro music is noted as punchy and positive, the overall feedback suggests that a more customizable audio experience would enhance gameplay enjoyment.
- “The intro music is punchy and gives a positive impression.”
- “It would be outstanding if the developer could add an option to turn off the in-game music, just a nicer experience without blaring, pretty inappropriate for the genre techno (literally) blasting as soon as you enter the game or exit a match.”
- “I managed to record a single gameplay video (with music) but this video is from an older version of the game and the physics were improved a lot!”
- “I want the ability to completely turn the music off (all of it), especially the music that automatically plays after the game is won (or in my case, lost).”
- “I want the ability to completely turn the music off (all of it), especially the music that automatically plays after the game is won (or in my case, lost).”
