The game's stability is heavily criticized, with users reporting numerous bugs that hinder gameplay, such as characters getting stuck and unresponsive controls. Many players feel that the NPC behavior is erratic and contributes to a frustrating experience, suggesting that significant improvements are needed for the game to be enjoyable. Overall, the consensus is that the game lacks a solid foundation due to its instability.
- “It's so buggy; I don't know why everyone just stacks at a ball and you can't even move.”
- “The NPCs are very fishy; they seem to always want the ball out of bounds when it's on their side. The controls are okay, but the gameplay is not very good. I bought this game when it came out, and it's pretty buggy. The ball gets stuck between our feet like we are robots rolling around as wheels for a soccer ball, which is silly. You need to fix it, and more people will like this game. (P.S. This game is like the impossible game to win.)”
- “Normally, I'd say that if they fix the glitches, the game would be a lot better, but I just don't think there's a foundation here for a great game.”

- “The moral of the story is that you never know what life has in store for you. If I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today.”
- “The game has no story, which makes it disappointing, especially since you can't play with your friends online; it's limited to just two players on the same computer.”
- “The moral of the story is unclear and feels forced; it doesn't resonate with the gameplay experience.”
- “The lack of a compelling narrative detracts from the overall experience, leaving players feeling unengaged.”
