The gameplay is a mixed bag, with users enjoying the fast-paced, arcade-like experience of tennis and volleyball, while finding the soccer component frustrating due to poor visibility, confusing mechanics, and ineffective passing controls. Overall, the game offers a fun entry point but suffers from significant issues that detract from the overall experience.
“The graphics are cheery and nice, the gameplay is fast and furious, and it is an arcade-like game that you can just jump in without needing to know all the details.”
“Surprisingly fun arcade gameplay for two games (tennis and volleyball), but the third is borderline unplayable (an awful soccer game).”
“I still don't know how to play the volley one, but it looks fun, and the soccer gameplay is not that great for some reasons: I can't see the ball or my selected character that easily (I don't have the biggest screen and my eyesight is also not of a jet pilot). I haven't found a button for changing my character on the field yet, which is very frustrating.”
“Not much for clubs and really not good gameplay.”
“Horrible pass mechanics where it passes based on the thumb stick instead of the existing player.”

The volleyball game features a basic story mode with international teams and competitions, while the football game offers a more developed narrative with seven matches and various pop culture references. Overall, the football game's story mode is more engaging compared to the volleyball game's simpler approach.
“There are some international teams and competitions, but not really a story mode.”
“Unlike in the football game, this one has a story mode with 7 different matches and a few random pop references.”

Reviewers appreciate a balance in humor within sports games, preferring a more subtle and relatable comedic approach over exaggerated, cartoonish antics like those found in Mario games. They seek humor that enhances the experience without requiring extensive time investment to enjoy.
“I was looking for a sports game that wasn't all-out Mario silliness ('Oh, I get the magic mushroom and win!' loses its humor pretty quick) but also wasn't something I needed to dedicate time to in order to be competent.”
