Rip off pay to win game, trash game mechanics. All they care about is the money. Rank is absolute trash. Dont get this game its just a cash grab
Fix ur stats
Your stuff is so bad and the shots that r made are so dumb fix your stuff
Horrible
Garbage game and the developers don’t even care about this game they just want your money.
I hate this
It’s so stupid I lost 5 times in a row and lost my rank even though I played for so long and tried so hard. I played for 7 hours yesterday and made no progress whatsoever and it’s such a stupid waste of time I hate it so much
Purchases
I've spent a lot of money on the game just to never get any vouchers or diamonds. It always says purchase failed but it's quick to take my money. It doesn't matter how many times I refresh the app or delete and download the game it just doesn't work. I've reached out for help but they don't even return my messages.
Trash
Mods trash game is trash the community is trash find another game
Honest Opinion
This game needs work . Horrible bots and teammates , overpowered opponents , no mics , terrible matchmaking . Reporting players does nothing , when they are back on your team to sell you again , the very next game . This isn’t the best mobile basketball game , for sure !!!
Idiot game
NO BALANCE, WHY THIS GAME SO TRASH WITH HER BALANCE, разраб дегенерат
KNB SR
This game is so confusing and hard to play, constantly missing open shots, the blocks be outrageous, and the abilities don’t matter any more. Just spamming over and over. Why did the developers make the Vs. AI so hard?!??
Weak
Games trash perr usual games horrible was never good, trash rebound system, blocking, steal and shooting
Bad game
S rank and A rank aren’t balanced. They don’t even add anything to your shooting at all. Tested it out with an S rank and missed 5 out of 10 shots, fully maxed out talent and buffed abilities.
Can never find a game
I can’t ever find a game and whenever I play with my friends they don’t find a game but when they leave my team they immediately get into one, I can’t enjoy the game or play this is messed up and unfair
Midorima
Bro miss more shots than he makes I see Akashi and randoms making more three pointers than this shooter
225 draws
where are the 225 draws, is it after beta or something? you only get around 22 draws on first day even if you complete rookie training its little over 100 pulls. This is also if you grind the game including spending all the gems you get another so max 150 if were being generous. Still missing 75 pulls. Another issue is maxing character to be viable in high rank play the free characters right now are viable high rank now but once they release a good defensive player like sp/last game akashi or kise the players wont be viable which are the only maxed out players F2P players would have since maxing a generation of miracle cost somewhere around the 50,000 gem range for their them to be good and not be at a disadvantage, only fairly useful player junpei hyuga or the hawk character. And that’s probably with every gacha slop but since this one was advertising 225 free pulls it would be easier for play and be more generous. This game will only do something like that if the games going under or something along the lines of that. Anyways just another gacha slop with decent gameplay.
Mandarin
You have Asia service Japan service and you can’t switch language to mandarin or Japanese in US service? Just switch language?
Game problem
I am experiencing a technical issue with Kuroko's Basketball. I downloaded the game on my iOS device and successfully launched it. However, after the in-game resources finished downloading, the game stuck on the loading screen and wouldn't open.
Even after waiting for more than 10 minutes, the game still doesn't progress. I have tried several troubleshooting steps, including changing my App Store region to the United States and the United Kingdom (I am currently located in Türkiye), but nothing has worked so far.
I am using an iPad 9th Generation and I am really looking forward to playing this game. Could you please help me resolve this issue?
can you please respond my mail

It scared me out of my money
and the game had a lot of cussing
game still isn’t working
i am still not able to get in after 3 days
Terrible game, extremely laggy, false advertisement
Told me I’d get 225 pulls for preregistration got 10. Game is pay to play and extremely buggy. Not new player friendly
Where are my 225 free draws?
I never usually write reviews but hate when games like these advertise their New User Incentive upon joining the game I was really hype with the idea of finding out what I can potentially get logging in just to find out that I didn’t receive any of that sort “Kuroko's Basketball official game launches with 225 free pulls! Assemble your team” 👎
Horrible RNG game
Not only do they give horrible rewards, they overcrowd your screen with a bunch of diarrhea. Which is expected of mobile games, but gameplay itself is honestly horrible. Steals and shooting is like playing a mobile NBA2k game on meth.

Took 15 hours to download
Departures
Hello developers, the game is very good, but there is a problem with it. I have an 8x and the game often crashes during matches. The game crashes for no more than 1-2 minutes, and then it crashes again. Please solve this problem. I really like the game and want to play it. Please solve this problem.
Not worth your time

1. No controller support
2. Gacha Rates are terrible devs expect you to spend your whole check 70 tickets bro your trippin.
3. Gameplay just sucks all around period I expected more

TOTALLY GACHA P2W
You dont enjoy the game at all, is just purchases everywhere, the gameplay is fun but server crashes and the rate % to get new players is absurd. I try 6 reroll and not even one player they give you after opening dozens of gacha, delete it in less than a hour.
It’s horrible.
I waited until this game dropped and I was honestly hyped since I liked the anime but every single time I Q up the game just freezes or boots me off the game regardless if I put everything to the lowest settings. Not to mention if you pick what region you’re from you’ll still lag badly despite it not even being your routers fault. The games just horrible and thanks to their bugs I already got a warning and a couple of losses that shouldn’t have happen. Ts is disappointing
Summer training 3v3
You need to fix it allow us to control our players or something I’m tired of have 1000+ better players and still losing no way if my players have better stats should they be losing specially when it’s all Auto Ran. Fix it!
So many bot players
I wouldn’t recommend this game if you’re looking for a new game to grind ranks. There’s so many bots that are not matched with its ranks that it is so rigged to make you lose whenever you get paired with them. Developers please fix your bots at least if you want this game to succeed even better because I’m sick of losing with bot teammates that can’t rebound for anything nor guarding.
High ping MS
We need euro servers. High ping ms, not good :((. Game is good, but not European servers. 160-220 ping is very bad. Please add Europe servers and I get 5 stars
Too much gacha clutter
Fun gameplay, but way too many different currencies and tasks. Really hard to keep track of. Feels overwhelming. Whole thing feels very aggressive and exhausting.
Kuroko’s Basketball Street Rivals review
First of all, as soon as you open the game you’re greeted with a menu thats way too crowded and messy with far too many buttons with no idea which one does what. There’s also an abundance of different collectibles and currencies that are very confusing and poorly explained. It makes it harder to get into if you just started playing and makes collecting rewards a lot less rewarding since the menu is so difficult to navigate around, you could try to read all the descriptions carefully but it’s still hard to understand what does what.
My suggestion would be to clean up the menus by cutting out all the unnecessary visual noise, simplifying the layout and removing the amount of buttons and text cluttering the screen solves the problem of where to claim you’re rewards after a match. For example there are seven different gachas, Miracle Tetsuya Kuroko and Zone Kagami are in separated gachas but could easily be the same one since they are a duo, cutting down the gachas to around three to four would be enough. Explaining how the currencies work would make the progression easier since you know how to spend them effectively instead of just tapping the confirm button because it’s too much of a bother to try and understand what they do anyway.
I think the story mode is a really cool idea by playing the game in the way story goes for seirin in the anime, but the way it gets presented is such a watered down experience from the show. I understand that it’s important for people who haven’t watched Kuroko’s Basketball to get a hold of the plot as they’re playing, but watching the story is basically just getting a small recap of every episode with still frames and with poor resolution and audio quality. I think removing story mode and moving the tasks to a different location would be a better idea, It’s too hard to implement the plot in a satisfying way in a mobile game and nearly everyone playing Kuroko’s Basketball Street Rivals have already watched the show anyway.
Design and graphics wise I think the game is lacking in certain areas, my previous complaint about the menus was that they were too cluttered, the quality of the UI in general is also low and looks cheap. I’m not sure if the low resolution is only a problem for IOS devices since I have seen clips of others playing in higher image quality, 1080p is the standard for mobile games and higher resolutions should be an option for more crisp visuals.
A part of the gameplay that I like is the variety of different modes you can play and the amount of characters you’ve able to use, they all got different styles and moves, some compliments others better and some don’t which makes it fun to play. My biggest issue with the gameplay and the game in general is the amount of lag and frequent crashes you get to experience, and it almost always happens in ranked mode which is one of the main ways to progress. I can enter a match maybe play for a minute or less and then the game crashes and I get kicked out, if I try to get in again I have to wait for the match to load and I get kicked out again. The consequences of getting kicked are huge, when you get kicked out you rarely have the chance to join without it happening again, once you get back in the game closes all access to the screen except for the button which you rejoin the match on. the waiting time can last from 3-15 minutes with some matches forcing you to rejoin even when it’s finished several minutes ago. I’ve personally never had this problem with any other online mobile games before. It completely ruins the experience for all users.
I think Kuroko’s Basketball SR has so much potential but the awfully designed menus, overflow of in game rewards and currencies, low resolution, lack off creative music, bad story mode design, crashing and lag makes it extremely frustrating to play.

Just okay
I want to like this game. I really do. The gameplay itself is fun, but that’s about it. Timing the blocks is impossible, and it feels like a random chance to get rebounds with no actual skill involved. It’s a very high gacha game where you have to spend A LOT of money to get anything. The chances of receiving anything before the guaranteed player, is slim to none at all. That means you need 120 coupons just to get 1 GOM, spend $60 on JUST Zone Kagami/Kuroko, or get the 120 coupons that you have to buy anyways to get. Let’s not forget how unstable the servers are. I had full bars and my connection was still interrupted causing me to get a warning, no points for my match, and my reputation points being deducted. All because their servers are bad. It’s a fun game with A LOT… and I mean A LOT of issues. If they can fix these issues, this game has the chance to be one of the best. However, as of right now, it’s just a quick money grab game and that sucks.
Money grab
I’ve spent pretty close to about 150 dollars and all I have to show for it is one maxed out generation of miracles and one regular player there aren’t enough useful centers out and if you don’t have one it’s pretty much a guaranteed loss in training mode there is nowhere to prqctice block timing of character skills unlike the Japan version which has the feature once you hit ace player there is nowhere a significant pay to win mechanic of the other team has a maxed out midorima you are punished for playing good defense and the fact that in each team only one person may pick the character is ridiculous because the game just came out there are a total of four centers and only two of them are useful so it’s just a scheme to get you to buy more characters fun game but very pay to win heavy
Where is the Russian language?
The game is good, but do Russian
225 free pulls
