Addicting game and great picture.
Sorta dumb, but a great time waister! We love it.
The description says there are achievements but there aren't any at all. Very disappointed to have downloaded for nothing.
This app is so fun you have to do it fast our hiest score is 28.
As a basketball player, we love playing the game. And this game is great for our iPad in our free time.
It is really fun. We're pretty sure we will play this every night before we go sleep.
Great fun! Good b-ball that's realistic.
Playing for the first time and having fun.
A great game good graphics, nearly as good as being there. And it's free. The upgrades are worth 1.99 to. Great job.
Fun and cool. Mad that you can't swish though. We'd recommend it.
Such a fun game play it all the time and we love basketball.
This app is awsome! You should totally download it.
This is a fun at home arcade game.

This is the best hot shot basketball game ever.
We love this game, it's like the amusement park game. It's so additive, could play tHis game for hours.
Wish we were this good at the fair.
We love this game! Our wife beats us all the time.
This games involves basketballs. If you like basketballs or any other type of balls, get this game.
Awesome game, just like the arcade. Real cool.
It's an awesome game our high score is 84.

Lots of fun when playing with your grandson.
Great app! Let the competition begin.
Fun app. To play with the Family.
Cool app. It keeps you challenged.
Grande jogo, timo passa tempo.
Wow! Nice fluid gameplay! We definitely will look for other games like this in the future.
We're enjoying the Arcade Basketball Hoopz keep coming up with ways of enhancing the game thank you.
Great fun for adults and kids. Trying to get our 3 yr old grandson to understand the game is timed.
Awesome game wish there was more to though.
Great fun! Easy learning curve.
Could have more option but good game.
Could be better but hey it's free so we can't complain.
We can make 26 points we like it a lot.
Its pretty cool but boring at the same time….its addictive but only because u want to beat other peoples score….otherwise kind of fun.
Great game. Once you start playing, it's hard to quit. Almost as good as the real thing.
Our toddler can't get enough of this game.
Fun but it needs more time and levels.
Good motion for free throws, extended games give the opportunity for 3s.
This game is awesome. It reminds us of being at the fair.
Good game! We need more practice.
Bored? Then this is a time killerthat's it.
It's an ok app. Wish we cd go right back to the middle each time instead of the awkward shuffle to line up.
This game was okay but we still like it.
Not much to it after you get the hang of it in 10-15 minutes. In the real arcade game we used to bank it off the board, can't do it here so much. It would be nice if it gave the last shot before the buzzer.
Trying to get the hang of it, but fun.
Since upgrading to iOS 6, the mpoints have disappeared. We have emailed the developer and have yet to receive a reply.
