Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
We love it, but please, dont let people cancel while theyre in. Or let them loose the bet and the opponent win their points. It happens that we get 10+ cancels before we can play a game. This is so frustrating.
Some players will toss the Palina to the lowest part of the surface then toss their ball the same way. The opposing player cant follow suit or hit the Palina.
The multiplayer does not work well. It takes forever to find a player. Why is it ok for level 900+ players to be playing a level 1.
The updates made make the game worse. It was 5 points to win, now its only 4. It should be a higher number so one player cant sweep in one inning. The option to rematch was removed which is a bad update. You can no longer send comments to your opponent. The courses are the same with no new ones added. Very disappointed with the changes.
Well done lots of fun, just trying to figure out how you advance . Otherwise lots of fun.
This game is fun and addicting. The downside for players in North America is that theres not enough players online when were awake. The other issue is something the developers should address, which is that many players will challenge you to a game and then not play. They sit there and wait for you to quit so they can win the match and coins. Ive had opponents sit there for an hour trying to win the match by default. There should be a timeout and the player who doesnt take their turn should be disqualified. Otherwise, gameplay is very fun.
The opponent search is slow and hit and miss gameplay but the game is fun and will teach you the sport. Not enough people play the game yet and hope it gets more downloads for more competition. The season play is short only two so far but hopefully more to come. Its challenging and strategic planning is the key to winning. Its definitely easy to operate and is easy to pick up and play a quick game! So download the game everyone to make for better gaming and competition.
Would like to have more courts and the ability to move left or right behind the throw line instead of from just the center. Only two seasons to play.
Good game but lot of waiting time for another person to join . Why cant you add some notification which tells us that someone has joined instead of us staring at the screen for long time.
Dont be fooled by the icon. This game has very simple and rather drab graphics. Its not that far from a 2D game. That said, it is a lot of fun. Once you tune into the fact it actually requires a little strategy, it starts becoming interesting and challenging. We look forward to a future game with graphics that match the icon. The up sell are better balls and they are rather hard to get. You would have to play a lot and win a lot to be able to upgrade your ball even one level. If you choose the multiplayer path, you basically gamble your coins on you and it would not take long to get right back to zero coins with some bad luck or skill.
Due to very slow or no player to play against we switch off and play some other game.
Simple but lots of fun. No idea how you can move beyond level 11.
We wish the developers would finish this game! Its really fun but goes nowhere. All you can do is play the same people over and over and never go above the current levels. Even when you beat the highest person over and over you go nowhere. Is there any plan to fully develop the game? It would be great if they did and definitely would warrant a 5 star then.
Its to hard to move on to the next level, we think Im going to delete this game.
The game is fine but when you get to level III and completed all you cant go any higher or you go to the other games with other people and theres never anybody to play need more levels.
Good game, but it needs more levels.
Youve got to finish the app for one thing. Next, who monitors this for all the cheats? Its ridiculous. They cant win off skill so they steal from you on a rematch. We see others complaining of this a YEAR ago. Whats up.
Graphics are okay but scenery doesnt change. Multiple obvious spelling errors in the messages. Separate seasons without explanation of how to advance beyond the second. Oh well.
Itd be fun if the multiplayer actually worked. Either theres a bug in it or nobody actually plays this game, so there arent multiplayers to actually play against. Disappointing.
The single player mode is fun, but too short. Once getting 3 stars on each course, theres nothing else to do. The best part of this game is the multiplayer mode. Unfortunately, over half the time we log on, we cannot find a game.
This Game is weak concerning control of the ball. It feels like luck over skill at times. Graphics are 2D, there are few players using this app so just waiting for a player to sign in is frustrating and wins against the same players do not count on your score if you played them already. A strong player can be set to play a weaker player without players approval. Once assigned you have to finish the game or lose.
Tried multiplayer and it searches n never finds an opponent. First 3 levels fun but useless unless you keep repeating the levels.
The game itself is fun to play but it's too hard to get close to the red ball due to the arrow isn't big enough for our finger to aim. Not recommended if it's hard to view the arrow as you play.
Ive only been able to complete 2 seasons. There is no indication on how to advance to season 3.
Fun but lots of drawbacks… Takes forever to find people to play, bugs exist that allow opposing players unlimited time which forces you to forfeit, inability to change courts in multiplayer mode, we could go on but basically lots of room for improvement.
Team, there is a bug in d game. When opponent calls for a rematch, even if he times out but sends a message, it shows he is still active. Everyone is taking this opportunity to win easy points by not playing and waiting for their opponent to time out.
Fun enough, but game locks up and automatically forfeits the game and you lose. Takes forever to get a multiplayer match. Also the word is spelled Continue, after match is over.
This game passes the time but does not offer any features. The coins and stars you win each game get lost and never appear in your inventory. The gameplay is straightforward but offers no other settings such as saving a game which is lost if you exit the app or game screen, no new colors of balls to win.
Esta bien que cobren, pero por Dios como pudieron estropear una aplicacin tan maravillosa.
The controls feel inaccurate and inconsistent, shots barely roll or fly off the court with barely a change in swipe. Its manageable but wins and losses feel more down to luck than skill. Worst of all there is no saving a game in-process. This means that any minimization of the app kicks you back out to the main menu screen. This is especially unfortunate considering the main control used in this game – swiping upward – will inadvertently cause Control Center to open, thus ending your match. Ive lost progress on numerous games this way. Terrible interface design.
Why can a player stop playing and the other player is left waiting forever or gets penalized by having to forfeit the match? Fix that.
The fact that you can just purchase the absolute best balls in the game right from the start takes away from the game. It would have been ok if the best balls were available for in game gold, but they arent. The best item available for in game gold has 1/5th the stats of the balls bought with cash.
Where is season 3? Why there are only 2 seasons for the offline mode.
Only 2 seasons? Multiplayer doesnt work.
This Bocce game is really fun, it's the best app for Bocce so far, but it needs more features. Needs to keep growing.
No invasive ads or unnecessary updates. Respect.
Our son is on a Bocce team for school and we are getting this game for him also.
Best game ever!!!! Loads of fun.
We just purchased.. Please update to iOS they are now thieves. Dont get.
So this is a fantastic little game. Very authentic to the sport, easy to play with enough finesse to feel like you have lots of control. Only cons are the inability to save in game, a lack of settings (to change color, background, etc.), lack of ball sounds, and the inability to modify rules. Also, one time our ball flew out of the court and it still counted as a point. All that said this is a fun little bocce ball game that offers tourney, league, arcade, and multiplayer modes. Not bad at all for $2.
Pro version is nice. Without it wait times between games are extensive (3 hours). Not necessary.
A little disappointed with poor images but the game is fine.
It's a fun game. We played the lite version first and assumed that the multiplayer portion was going to be playing against others. We didn't realize that both players would have to use the same device.
Fun game, hard to break away from.
Great game overall. Only reason for the 3 stars is because you can't leave mid-game and go to main menu or you lose, also if your phone dies or the app closes, you lose! There should be a mid-game save feature like there is on almost every game ever made! This is a huge downfall to this game! Also get on Game Center so you can play friends! Who doesn't have a feature like that in 2016!? Cmon now.
Computer manipulates the game in its favor in the tournament mode.
The realism of actually rolling the balls is great. Reminds us of actually playing Bocce in our uncles backyard.
Game play, graphics, controls, challenge from the ai all make for a great Bocce game.the only thing that could be improved is the physics when the ball hits the boards.This game is a lot of fun, developers ya done a great job. If you love Bocce you will want to own this app.
