The gameplay is generally praised for its engaging mechanics, strategic depth, and addictive nature, particularly for a tennis game, with players enjoying the ability to hire coaches and develop tactics. However, there are significant concerns regarding balance, as players often experience frustrating losses to lower-level opponents and face steep difficulty spikes that may require in-game purchases to progress. Additionally, technical issues like slow loading times and freezing during gameplay detract from the overall experience.

- “Terrible gameplay when players 10 levels below you somehow beat you, even when you're using level 3+ tactics.”
- “After year 3, gameplay becomes crazy difficult and you can only progress if you pay.”
