Rigged for pay to play
This game is rigged so that you must buy good players to win championship games to move forward. Your players hit great all the way to the championship game then can’t even get a ball out of the infield unless you have purchased an elite player. On top of that. If you pay and spin it makes sure it one in 100 spins to hit even a decent player. You’ll waste tons of money trying to excel and they have the game rigged to give you garbage until you have spent way more that anything in the game is worth. Player beware.
Broken
I am stuck in a playoff game to get to the next level. It gives me a 25% chance to win prior to the game beginning. Logical would tell you that I should then expect to win 1 out of every 4 games or so. But no, I have quite literally played 65 games against this one team and have yet to win once. Some may say it’s a skill issue, but the only skill in this game is whether or not you strike out. Once you make contact, it’s solely up to chance. I have struck out 2 total times in these 65 games. Most of my contact flies out at the warning track. I have hit 1 HR in this series of games
don’t waste your time
Going to be completely honest i sat and waited over an hour for the game to start up and it still had load all the assets or whatever it was downloading so down waste you time
10000% rage bait
don’t get
Can’t advance
This game is lopsided. Been trying to advance for almost a month. Players are all maxed, I still get the same results as when I was first able to play for advancement. This game sucks
Horrid
Zero skill game…CPU can score 15 in one inning…In higher ranks if you score it won’t matter cause they turn around and score no matter what…I have hitters with 250+ power hitting dribblers to the pitcher…the shift system is broken cause why is the ss making plays for the 2nd baseman and why is the first baseman on the min to make wtv plays he needs to make…game is broken and needs HE🏒🏒LA WORK.
This game suuuuuucks
This game sucks so much it physically will not let me get any home runs even if it’s literally even if it’s perfect as the hit can get with my best player. It won’t let me upgrade the players and the graphics kind of suck and overall it’s just really overrated if it has a 4.7 and it’s this horrible.
Not good
Probably one of the worst baseball games I’ve ever played. Fix the garbage playoffs it’s a bunch of BS….. If you score the opponent scores double and when you should have the bunt on the screen like to steal base it doesn’t give you that option…. And a lot of other things that is not a fair game….. it’s a bunch of BS.
Game
Disappointed in the game baseball 9 is better when you get into the game and start playing you learn quick but the moment the other team has a percentage high than you it’s like the app takes over you can hit good balls can’t get runner on base I mean it doesn’t even give a chance they will catch every foul ball every grounder just not fun
Pay to win
Game is impossible to win unless you pay for players after you get to a certain level
RNG skill-less money pit
Do not waste a second of your time or a dime of your money on this game. Luckily I saw through it before I got sucked into micropurchases. The game involves 0 skill, nothing you can do, good or bad, effect the outcome of any match you play. The game predetermines whether you will win or not based on a seemingly arbitrary “team strength ranking”. If you “team strength” is lower than your AI opponent, every pitch you swing connect on will go directly to defenders who (literally) appear out of mid air and stop on a dime to get you out no matter what you do or what adjustments you make. The only ways to upgrade your team strength, are play HUNDREDS (literally) of mind-numbingly easy matches (or simulate them for in game currency), or spend real life money to straight up buy better players to upgrade.
No skill, all RNG, all predetermined matchups that vacillate between brain cell killing simplicity and literally impossible (without spending money).
Do not waste your time.

This game is trash
The physics are so bad like what kind of baseball player in the NLB is just going to sit in the foul zone waiting to catch it and every time I hit it farther than the bases they just catch it and if I hit closer than the bases it’s just an out because they throw to the person on the base don’t get this game the people who created it don’t know much about baseball. This game sucks
Poorly done
If you like being throttled for not paying, then download this game now. Everything is fun in the beginning and then when you start to earn enough to upgrade players you find yourself unable to hit past the infield and when you do it is miraculously hit directly to an opponent. It’s pretty sad. If you pay money for packs and upgrades I bet you get to actually play a fun game…. Annoying…

Game Cheats
Game chests. No matter what you do it’ll decide to have the opposing team drop 15 runs in a single inning so you can’t progress. Trash game.
Awful
Started out great, but the odds of getting good players are slim to none. The $$$$, that you need to spend is just like the other game that was closed. The greediness with money for the developers is astounding and atrocious.
Garbage
So the same old tap baseball. Home runs called follow (clearly fair)n and rigged for the computer. Just play something other than this game.
Absolutely stops all progress
I will be deleting the game because I won’t spend a fortune trying to progress. When the game says you can’t win a playoff game you can forget it. It’s a shame because it
is a fun game it just has stupid developers.

Tease
The game could be alright. The thing that is the worst is trying to
get good players out of packs, what should be random, is not whatsoever, I have literally spent millions in game bucks buying packs, and tons of gold buying gold packs, only to never get above a purple player, which is complete garbage. Then the game decides for you how many runs you’re allowed to make. When you get to a certain number, sorry, no more. You think you may have some iota of control, but you don’t, it’s all about trying to squeeze money out of someone. It’s really not worth the download..

Terrible
Fun at first. Then screeching hault as this is an extremely pay to win game. It’s funny too, to watch how the algorithm won’t allow your best players to actually hit anything but pop ups and line drives straight to players even tho the pitchers rating is significantly lower than the player. Basically… if your teams strength is lower than the other team, then your NOT winning. Want to beef up your team!? Spend $20-$50.
Dumb
It’s to hard and not realistic and it’s stupid they need to change their bosses like the championships. It’s too hard and it’s not realistic.
Pay To Win
leads you into believing it’s a fun game until you level up and realize if you’re not spending real money on players you’ll be stuck in a playoffs game forever against a squad of ohtanis. the level up system is garbage, if you don’t spend money expect to delete the game after a couple days. good for boredom at first tho
Nothing like Tap Baseball
No feel, no big hits. So boring. Big rip off of that Tap Sports game that was very good.
Not great
Game really does put you at a crossroad - Delete the game or pay money to keep playing. Gets to a point it literally will not let you win without spending.
Great app until wasn’t
First 40 games or so, fun. Now I have to buy in to be remotely competitive , my hitters went from .400 to .100, but buy now! I’ll do the ads and l will happily throw some dollars at the devs, but ridiculous overall
A joke
The physics are terrible. You have no control when hitting the ball. The ball in the air always goes towards the person catching it even without them moving. To tier up players they want you to pay money for the CHANCE to get a badge. This game is a money grab and a joke. Do not install and stay far away.
Unable to play…
Game stays on Booting Up for over an hour on iPhone and iPad iOS 26.4.1. Restart and reinstall doesn’t fix.
Money Grab
Seems fun at first but soon you realize it’s cheaply made and very basic compared to other baseball games.
WORST BASEBALL GAME ON APP STORE VERY LAZY MONEY GRAB
Tap sports baseball 2014 was better, super bad graphics which is okay for mobile games I don’t expect mlb the show but you’ll hit what should be a homerun and magically ends up in fielders glove, lots of should be ground ball singles through infield holes but ball magically ends up in the fielders glove, lots of line drives with decent trajectory looking like you’d have to be 9 feet tall to catch but the infielder will catch it every single time. No strategy really just pure luck, you square a ball up hit a dribbler to pitcher, damn near 90% of solid contact is just yanked foul like you can’t make solid contact fair most the time
Waste of time
The game’s not optimized at all. It’s basically a baseball manager simulator, very primitive not much you can do in terms of building your team/lineups. In game is the same thing. Seasons and events are long and monotonous with rewards not being worth it. It’s definite pay to win but even then… $100 for the gold bundle isn’t even enough to fully level one single gold player. A time waster
Terrible
The hitting in the game is awful. Infielders are making ground ball plays on the outfield every line drives an out. And your fresh reliever gives up a run every time. Games is awful
The Script
Game concept is so great, loved tapsports baseball. This game genuinely is a cheap copy with no hit physics at all. Most interactions feel unavoidable and completely scripted, fielders will always be in the right spot and you can expect to lose 50+ times in a row when encountering a playoff game even when just slightly underpowered. Game heavily relies on micro-transactions and is pure rage-bait.
Money Grab
If you got an extra 2 to 300 bucks a week to spend just to lose almost half your games and won’t advance till you do. Every game is predetermined before you even play ain’t nothing like being down by 15 before u even get the bat in your hands seriously 2 to 300 bucks a week if you have then this game is for you lol
Game was great…until lvl 10!
The game was great until I got to level 10. Then it was next to impossible to hit the ball and their players were like magnets and caught everything. Now I can’t beat the last playoff game and I’ve attempted now about 15 or 20 times! At this time, frustration outweighs the enjoyment of the game and I give up! It was fun while it lasted!
To the developers: A suggestion, when you get users to the point where they can’t proceed without paying you money you failed and lost your audience! Good luck!

Time to get it
takes like 10 minutes to get on the game
Don’t bother
It doesn’t take long before the game forces purchases to advance.
Greed
This game sucks unless you have a lot of money to spend
Disappointing player behavior
Any time you will go on this app, you will almost certainly see racist, sexist, or otherwise ignorant comments in the public chat. This is why public chat is basically never a feature anymore. The app developers should either a. Properly police this channel so it is not a hotbed of hate, b. Shut the whole chat down or c. Limit chat to predetermined phrases to choose from.
Worthless
No physics, most hits are scripted regardless of when you hit, total waste of time.
Not very fun
To be honest this game is trash, you can’t bunt when you want to, you can’t steal when you want to. Good luck getting more than 9 runs. It happens but not very often. Somehow the players can reach their arms 10 feet above them and catch a line drive. It’s more frustrating than fun
Play Wii Baseball Instead
I wish I was joking when I say the computer runs at about a thousand miles an hour. It is actually insane. Also, if the other team is even remotely better than you, good luck buddy. I’ve played 15 games in a playoff game and the least I lost by was 12. 11 runs in 1 inning in almost every game lol. Not even mad, more impressed with how truly unrealistic this game is. Wii sports baseball is closer to the real thing!
Fun while it lasted
Was doing great at first. Really enjoying this game. Like others have stated. You’ll run into a juggernaut team in the playoffs and you’ll have no chance of winning. I hit 4 homers with one being a 2 run blast and still lost by 6?? Yeaaahhh ok
Designed to fail
At a certain point you are going hit a playoff where it is scripted to make you lose by a team 400-600 points higher for some delusional lack of reason. If you spend money you’ll advance, that’s why there aren’t ads. You’ll get forced in to paying in time.
Weak
This game is trash. It’s pay to win. SMH
Bad
I can’t even play because it just says booting up 1.01V and dosent stop
Fix it.
Same exact hit, same exact thing every bat. center field, or an out every single time. Very bad game, do not recommend.
Horrible game
This horrible game makes any playoff game impossible without spending money it’s a waste of iPhone storage and never get this cancerous game
Not the best game!
The players would always catch my ball not fun to play and boring I would always have 3 outs!
Causes anger
Games fun but literally makes me wanna throw my phone through a wall. Have it where you get a hit and the other team just stops moving while ball is rolling and it calls you out. Also it is impossible to progress in playoff games
Temu version of TAP
This game is straight up a wanna be TAP but nowhere near as good as
This game bothers me.
This game bothers me im not gonna lie. I feel it doesn’t reward you for good timing or smart swings, more so the higher the overall the better you’ll do. I can have the same swing timing at the same exact pitch from a guy who’s level 150 and from a guy who’s level 65, and for the higher level it’s a line drive right to someone or a pop out. With the lower level it’s a dinger 80% of the time. Just seems flaws and paid to win at a certain point.
