{"game_intel_data":{},"featured_reviews":[{"content":"I was so excited for this but finding it unbalanced and way too grindy (and I love a grindy game). There's no sense to it - I am still earlyish in my first game, have a team with some exceptional and all-star players, trained and leveled up, my evaluation rating is far higher than the teams I'm playing, and yet each match is a total crapshoot. My players have 250-400 shooting, but frequently miss short shots, while the other team, which is one of the first teams you play, is constantly making threes no problem. There's no logic to it. It seems the more I train my team, the worse the matches go with this same early team (trying to complete all the bonuses). I've experimented with strategies and nothing works even when it does work one game then it doesn't work in the next. I can't seem to progress to harder opponents, and the opponents I should be crushing are still giving me grief. It's not satisfying at all. There's small things missing that added to the fun - for instance, you can't use auras for training. It's not as good as other games in the Kairosoft line, like the first soccer or the first racing games. Those provided a challenge but also a lot of satisfaction and a logical progression. I am having a hard time getting through the first run to do new game+, which is where the fun usually is. Very disappointed, especially for the higher price. I don't know why I keep trying with Kairosoft, they obviously don't respect their customers and are just doing cash grabs at this point. Breaks my heart.","version":"1.2.3","date":"2019-11-27T00:00:00Z","rating":2,"app_id":"net.kairosoft.android.basket","username":"A Google user","title":"","country":"US","tags":["performance_and_bugs","accessibility"],"review_id":"9a78d753-f616-46b4-aed9-9df1be34dcc3"},{"content":"Fun game, if a bit slow at times. This is much like the basics of Pocket League Story (one of my fav ksoft games) but with the added research, city building, and sponsorships of the more modern games. The game has no micro transactions which is the best way for these games. The best way I have found to play is leave the court on freestyle training to let players rebuild stamina, and always play as many matches as often as you can.","version":"1.3.6","date":"2022-07-14T00:00:00Z","rating":5,"app_id":"net.kairosoft.android.basket","username":"M","title":"","country":"US","tags":["performance_and_bugs"],"review_id":"4f2ccf0d-0cb7-4916-81e9-d507efc4f114"},{"content":"A fun game with warts. The AI needs some work as players will routinely pass the ball in to traffic rather than take a wide open shot. Not even a high school coach would stand for that! Also, you get way more training points when you win than when you lose. Completely stupid; not sure who thought that might be a good idea. Otherwise, it's fun to root for your team! One of the few GM sims which isn't simply a stat dump, you watch your players play.
