Community Insight:
NBA we love so for us to have this game it is really fun.
Its not updating for us if you can please fix this. Thank you very much.
We just wish they would add more recent players every year.
We love games like this and Im really good at them but these ones are way too easy. It was one thing we got stuck on but the rest was just so easy for us. You need to make it more challenging. Thats why Im giving this a four-star review because its fun but its easy.
This is a fun game that keeps us entertained a lot. It will have us playing the game for 30 minutes straight. We do wish that they updated the players teams and that you could actually put the letters where you want to put them. But despite that, we still think it is a great game.
Good game not bad but needs updates.
We love this game even though it is not updated.
We love the game but it made us have diarrhea.
As someone who passed the first 2 packs without struggle at all we would just want some more hard ones but a fun game never the less.
Im doing jalen brown level and theres a extra letter.
Trivia is easy. If you can spell their names exactly. No fun. Deleted.
It just makes up some dumb players and it thinks you know anything and you will think you are so dumb and sometimes stupid you will get very mad.
If you like the NBA and all players involved. This game is fun and tests your true knowledge on players names.
We love this game Im a BIG NBA fan so its pretty cool to have it our brother helps us in a bit of them and one issue is that you need to watch an add to get free coins and then the non- free cause real money. So its pretty cool but just that issue but we definitely recommend this game.
Really good game but it is a little easy.
We are on level 41 in pack 3 in it is like 1millon ads fix your game people.
We like the game but every 5 minutes its have a ad. Please fix it.
This was single handed Lu the most boring and unfun game Ive ever played.
The game is super hard like make it easier.
This game is boring.its hard, annoying and after 5 questions theres an add.
This is a quiz game where you have to guess the NBA player, and it does what it sets out to do very well. There are ads but they dont bother us that much. However, there are three glaring issues: The first issue is the inconsistency in how you have to put in the players name. In most of these you have to put in the players last name and nothing more. However, sometimes you will have to put in their first name (for example LeBron James and Dejounte Murray) or you have to put in their entire name without spaces (for example Jaylen Brown and Aaron Gordon). This causes some confusion because for example Steph Currys first and last name (if you dont call him Stephen) are both 5 letters long. The second is that some of the player images need to be updated. Some players like Nikola Jokic, Karl-Anthony Towns and Kyle Lowry are still wearing Adidas jerseys. Other players, like Blake Griffin (Detroit instead of Brooklyn), Eric Bledsoe (NOLA instead of Clippers), Ricky Rubio (Minnesota instead of Cleveland), Andre Drummond (Detroit instead of Philadelphia), PJ Tucker (Houston instead of Miami) and the aforementioned Kyle Lowry (Toronto instead of Miami) are wearing jerseys for their former teams. The third issue only occurred after completing the first player. The screen would become dimmer and you would have to close and re-open the game to continue playing. Although it only occurred once we still think that this is worth mentioning. If you fixed all 3 of these issues, you would get a 5 star from us. Keep up the good work and have a good day.
The apps alright but some of the players names were mixed up. For example Jaylen Brown, we had to put Porzingis last name for it to be correct.
We LOVE the game because its challenging and doesnt need WiFi plus the shop is good because you can get tons of coins for a small price. AMAZING GAME.
Dont put guys in team uniforms that they never played for becaue that happened to us becaue Cody seller was in brooklin uniform.
Fun guessing game but a bit tricky at times overall a good time.
The app is very good, but, there are way too many ads. Some player have their first name and other have their last.
We play with our baby brother all the time.
Very fun all good quality and the game is great.
Its a great NBA player quiz game.
Every time there is an ad we cant get out of it. When we close out of the game and go back in we get kicked 3-5 times. Very good game though, we like how there is some unpopular players.
Id give this app a 4 star rating because the players jerseys arent all up to date, but the fact that after guessing 5 players we get an ad which cant be skipped unless we close the app and reopen it makes it a 2 star. Get it fixed and its a pretty fun app.
This is so annyoing and it makes us almost want to delete it Fix it.
Not that challenging but satisfying.

We think that the game is really good and fun to test our nba basketball skills.
Ok we love this game Im a big NBA fan and this makes us relaxed. Our dad helps us with guessing some players here and there but otherwise u should get this app. The game kicks us out here and there when Im on a high level or something and its annoying also players are in the non updated jerseys so it confuses us. If u dont know and cant find it on internet then do clues with the coins u earn and if u run out of coins and cant find player on internet our point is to delete this app. Also Ive had to reinstall this game 4 times to stop it from kicking us out but it still kicks us out sometimes. Not as much as before but still. So Im saying our point is to delete this app if it drives u crazy.
Guessing the players was kinda fun, but its just to easy. Also, sometimes it doesnt let us do this or that, and sometimes it shuts out. 3 stars.
Best game very UUU hahah this game best game every ya ya haahshwhqgwjaaajaha.
For people who like nba and people who know the players.
The guy on level 6 is the from nba 2020 on the front ps4 Xbox 1.
This game is easy because we know all these player.
Probably one of the best games ever.
This game is really fun it also helps you learn.
We would like to give this app a much higher review however the fact that ads pop up in the middle of the actual round being played is extremely frustrating. The app experience would be far more enjoyable if the ad came at appropriate breaks within the round or post level/round. Hopefully this is something that could be taken into consideration for future versions. Thank you.
On the 37th one you cannot spell Ariza.
We get an ad like every player sometimes 2 one after the other but other than that its pretty good.
When you dont know something how are you supposed to get it you should let 5 off.
There is to many ads that pop up back and forth we. Cant even put a letter in with out an ad popping up.
Unfortunately this game that couldve been fun must be deleted, and everybody should know sexual ads were displayed of a woman in her bra and underwear to our 10 year old son. SHAME ON YOU.
We have not played this game but we hope it is fun if it is will someone tell us.
