★★★★★ "Miss the old game. This game used to be great but was ruined by developers along time ago. The death of the auction house was the first domino to fall in killing the greatest mobile game of all time" - jt12001

The worst money grabbers in the App Store.
EA scripts the gameplay to frustrate and annoy players. They do this to provoke impulse spending. Truly the worst kind of business.
Some guys are spending $1000’s of dollars on this mobile game with no real world benefit. It is irresponsible of EA to promote this type of spending to maximize their revenue. Then EA add insult to injury by degrading some teams in order to make Gameplay more enjoyable for all. This was on their website. They not only tolerate cheating, as many top 20 leagues complained about this year. The top leagues don’t complain about the tricks that EA dumps on some teams but not others. The whole thing seems like a scam to me. This game can be so frustrating that it can make a person never want to spend money on an EA product again.

Terrible ai and power scaling
It’s not even fun. The power scaling never makes ANY sense. And the glitches so much. Should be taken off the App Store honestly, EA can’t make a game anymore.
I would love it if it worked
Every day when I try to login it would say failed to connect to ea servers please fix and i will give 5 stars

Go back to Madden 16
Does anybody remember Madden Mobile 16? I do. That was how the game was supposed to be. I’d quit Clash entirely if they went back to the roots that made this game a success in the first place
Js go back
Just go back to the old game like madden 16 or 13
Trash
Just too much going on
RUSHING ATTACK IS IMPOSSIBLE!!!!!
What’s the point of having diamond players on my line if they’re not gonna block. Most of the time my own teammates run into me and I get tackled. I’ve used money on this and it seems that it doesn’t matter what rank your players are they still won’t block and I’m playing against teams that are 2000+ weaker than me.
Terrific game
Love it
Delete the game
How is the other team getting 1,045 points and I get less and I was winning
Deep passes dead
This game won’t be for you if you like throwing any deep passes. EA made weak defenders turn Superman when you make any deep passes. It’s almost impossible to pass greater than 20 yards. Don’t waste your time and money in this POS. I am ready to delete game and quit. Instead of fixing the game to balance it out, they break it.
Madden 26
I can’t download madden 26
No Auction
Decided to hop back on and see if this game is still good and nope it’s boring as hell without the auction house
Worst game
Hate this game it’s frustrating
Hi
Hi buddy boysssassssas muhahahahahahahhahahahah I wanna L. I. K. U
I miss the old version of this game
Madden Mobile when it was released was one of my favorite games but now it is more of a pay to win game. I just want the old game back
This game cheats SO badly
This game cheats SO badly. So many miffed holds on PATs (I rarely see the other team do it). Usually about once every other game. You’re in a close game and quarterback throws it to the wrong person. You’re in a close game, the other team punts and your return man just drops it. I enjoy the game, but these types of CONTINUAL situations makes it frustrating to play.
It stole my son’s money
My son went to purchase something and made a mistake. He wanted to change it and we can’t get the customer support to work at all to talk to someone about it. He likes playing the game but if nothing loads every time I try for customer service that tells me that you want to get out of dealing with customers rather than making the game better
Game hasn’t changed
The game hasn’t changed for multiple years and bring back the auction house
Franchise mode
Wish this version had franchise mode don’t like playing against other people not in the same room too many modders in previous years
