Dunk Shot Reviews

by JRAA77

The game itself is a cool concept and the high score mechanic harkens back to the old arcade days. So some will love it and some hate it. Personally I love the concept and I enjoy playing this game very much. The BIG caution here is the in app purchase. There is an in app purchase for $1.99 that claims it “removes ads”. While it removes the bulk of ads in the game during gameplay it does not remove ads if you want to continue your game. This is not clear ANYWHERE in the text for the purchase. Probably better to skip the in app purchase. I will likely log a complaint to Apple on this so that they will clear up the language as well.

I love this game it is really fun to play except that when ever you try to continue and you watch the add it like never works and it is SUPER annoying also in the middle when I am aiming to get in the next hoop and than a Radom add just pops out and then I press X and than randomly it shoots it it makes me get so mad and than after that I try to continue guess what I can’t even continue because,after I watch the add it does not work and it makes me more MADDER and all I want to do is delete the game but I can’t delete it because,it is fun besides that it is just SO annoying and if they would fix the errors that would probably be my favorite game!!

by Adds Are No Good.

I get it, please don’t reply back, “We have to offset costs with providing a free app, so on, so on, so on....”. Yes ads are ads but I shouldn’t have to see an ad for every three resets. This game is fun and great mind numbing, time passing entertainment and is really well done but when I miss three shots... there is an ad. If I’m doing the challenges, that means about 2 ads per minute. If it’s general game play, I will play and score a couple hundred then see an ad. Score a couple hundred, see an ad and then score a couple hundred and at that point I actually turn the game off instead of continuing because I’m tired of seeing ads. The irony of the reply, “We need to offset the costs, so on, so on,” is that, it’s an ad of self promotion for more Ketchapp games... Like I said, a wonderful game but ruined by ads. Won’t end up keeping long because the boycott will eventually out weigh the entertainment value. I’d think about how many plugs you put in for ads Ketchapp. Across all of your developments.

this is game is very fun, i have to admit. but, almost 50% of the time when i open DunkShot there’s an ad and then i wait, try to play the game and the game isn’t working properly! i’m thinking of deleting and redownloading but then i’d lose my progress and i am not buying anything for DunkShot. it’s not worth the time and effort trying to get DunkShot to work in exchange for the space on your phone. it’s a fun game, very addictive but too many ads as well. the profits they make from this game must be huge because there is an ad before almost every. single. game.

I think this game is fun but don’t play it because you will probably rage from glitches. The free gift is the most glitchy you click on the free gift and it plays an ad and returns you to the menu without the gift plus after using the gift when it does work you can watch an ad to get another one and it plays, you x it out and it doesn’t give another it just returns to the menu. Another glitch is that random ads play and they glitch and you can’t close it and must restart DunkShot . The rage part comes in when you get really far and fail then click continue to watch an ad and keep going but then an ad glitch hits you and you have to restart DunkShot and lose your chance to keep going. If you could resist raging from the glitches then yeah this game is fun but If you can’t then one thing. Don’t. Get. This. Game.

So I’ve been playing this game for quite some time. Beat all the challenge levels and won most of the balls, but I gotta say the Fortune Wheel was not a good call. There’s loads of other ways to spice up the game, different types of balls that do different thing, disappearing hoops, etc.
I had over 5,000 coins and lost ALL of them spinning the fortune wheel and I still have not unlocked all the mystery balls. This is ridiculous! I love this game and love all the updates they have made over the past few months but the fortune wheel is just a ripoff in an otherwise 5 star game.

I do like the game. It’s a fun game to play for 2 to 45 minutes at a time. I just paid the $1.99 to remove the ads today. Be warned, you still have to watch an ad to get your 1 continue, I don’t think that’s cool. I understand having to watch an ad to speed up the timers but not for the continue. I think that should be removed in the next update for those that have paid for the ad removal. I’m not trying to get infinite continues.. just the one, like everyone else.
My second gripe is the lack of challenges. To me, those are my favorite part. The last update added more challenges and I’m hoping each additional update follows suit. Overall good game, 3.5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️✨

this app is a great game very simple addicting and yes loaded with adds. This was annoying at first but I got used to it until this new update with many new basketballs themes and challenges. It also added a No Add purchase. This says its 1.99 but its really 2.99 but I bought it anyway because it would make the game easier to play without being interrupted. The problem is I still have to watch an add to get a second life or get the category of balls that you have to watch adds for. Hopefully ketchapp sees this and will make a way for players that have purchased no adds to be able to get those balls and also have second chances WITHOUT watching adds. PLEASE FIX 👍 Great game!

So i’ve played this game for like a few months now, and i kinda like it. the only problem is people being aggressive against ads. it’s literally not that serious, your crying over an ad? and also, they say that there were too many bugs in the game. possibly, but if your phone is broken maybe thats the reason why. i can clearly understand why some people hate this game even when its just a basketball game that helps you with your aiming skills.

when i played this game, i was also so triggered by the ads when they kept popping up, but im used to it since its only just a game. a lot of people rage on games (like me), but i can remember that you don’t have to bring anger against the game even if you saw ads, or glitches. if the game was very laggy, i can clearly understand why so many people call it as “glitches”.

*please don’t take my review seriously, im sorry if i didn’t make any sense xD but still though, its a pretty nice game.*

I love DunkShot ! It’s easy and challenging at times, and also fun! I do like it a lot and would’ve rated it five stars if it weren’t for the ads... don’t get me wrong, It’s alright if DunkShot has just a few ads once in a while, I don’t mind it, but once it gets to much more than that, that it interrupts you during a game, I definitely have to mind it. You can’t to do that all the time, Ketchapp...I like you’re games, I really do! But that’s really something you need to improve, and I know why you do it, so you can get money...but it’s a horrible way to, and it needs to stop.

Classic ketchapp with the graphics and mechanics of the game. Really is a 4 Star game but it has enough little flaws it lost one for me.
The concept is enjoyable and the long list of possible achievements keeps me coming back. It was smart of ketchapp to include challenges as well.
My biggest personal complaint is that music will not play while DunkShot is running. Other than that there is no consistency in the way ads are presented. When it’s an ad for a ketchapp app it’s as if they know no boundaries with how they advertise. It’s much too difficult to continue playing the game when an ad for ketchapp comes up.

by Immasneeze

Overall this is a great aiming game, and lots of fun. My only problem with it is that when I miss a basket, it offers to let me continue (by watching an add) or start over. So when I reached a high score, obviously I pressed continue and watched an add. But it didn’t let me continue!!! It started over! I could’ve just pressed “start over” without watching an add if I wanted to start over! But no, I want to continue, but it won’t let me. Even after I watch the add, it starts me over every time. It always does this. Please fix this frustrating problem!!!

Very serviceable entertaining little game. You do just do the same kinda task over and over again trying to beat your score but it is entertaining to play and satisfying to beat ur score and unlock different balls. You can chose to watch adds for a bit of bonus money and to continue a round (once) but you really don’t have to and I don’t think you can pay for advantages or anything. My issue with the game is that for some reason that it overrides any music or podcast you’re listening to. In a game like this you really need to able to listen to other stuff.

by Ledhotzepper

It’s one of the best sports games available. The normal gameplay does get stale though. You can only complete each challenge level once and there are almost 100 of them. It just seems like you should be able to play any of them more than once. Also needs to be more modes of regular high score gameplay. Maybe easy and hard modes that spawn the next basket differently. Maybe a top down mode where you play from above and have to shoot at baskets beneath you. Just some ideas to make the game deeper.

Ok this is one of the best games I have but I have one issue...
SO MANY ADDS!!!You can’t escape them when you want to continue your progress in the game and it says continue you have to watch an add and sometimes you watch the add and it glitches and you don’t get to continue it is ridiculous! When you want 25 stars in the game or want a video ball it makes sense but still even when you say no thanks to the continue or something it gives you adds uhhhhhhhhh! But other than that it’s a good game.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😁😁😁🏀🏀🏀🏀PS: I get the slightest bit bored........ADD MUSIC 🎵 🎼 🎶 Then you would get 5 stars 😛

You should add a hard mode for both the normal game and the challenges where there’s no guidelines. Add more challenges too, I finished them all so there’s not much to do. Also add an easier way to get coins, just playing the game is too slow and watching ads is boring. The piñata is cool, but there should be a better way to get coins than waiting 7 hours just to get around 75 coins.

Edit: dropped down to four stars, I watched an ad for some coins and it didn’t give me the right amount. Only got 20 instead of 25. Not that big of a deal but kinda annoying. You should fix that.

But this game, I’ve become addicted to it but there’s something that got me mad (currently happening) and something that happened before. Sometimes, when I watch an ad for free balls during the challenges, I watch the ad but sometimes it doesn’t give me the balls, just the give up and restart option after watching it! Another thing is that one day is fine and the next day, the balls that I’ve won doing Challenges, normal, etc... are all gone! Even tho I’m in 95 percent!

by Mike Hoboken

Very simple, a lot of fun, easy to play and without the necessity of a huge time commitment. The challenge modes offer a fun way to play that slowly increases difficulty and is honestly the best part about the game. I’ve already beaten all of the ball, no aim, score, time and bounce challenges, and I cannot wait for more!

For all those complaining about how hard the challenges are, I couldn’t disagree more. They get more difficult towards the end and you won’t beat them on your first try or even first day, but that’s a good thing. If you did, you’d finish them in one sitting and there would be no point. It’s called a CHALLENGE for a reason.

Second, for those complaining about not getting enough stars, they give you plenty for finishing challenges plus the 60-70 daily. That’s a new ball every 2 days from the daily alone.

Improvements:
More challenges please!!!!! In type and quantity.

Different balls that have different abilities. E.g. a super bouncy ball, or a ball with lower gravity. These special balls could be used only in new challenges so that they wouldn’t change difficulty of existing tasks.

More obstacles with different behaviors and different sized/shaped rims. E.g. sticky walls that don’t bounce and rims that have to be hit perfectly.

Power ups you can pick up along the way by landing perfect shots, shots through rings, or bounce shots.

I really do like this game it is fun to pass the time. It just game to my realization though since I got a new phone I realized that for iPhones X and above, the top of the screen for the game is blocked. For challenges when seeing your score or how much time is left on the clock, that’s all blocked because of the design of the phone so you don’t know how much time you have left or how many hoops you are going to have. But other than that I love the game. Great job

I actually like the game. I have played a lot of Ketchapp games on the Apple store. The only problem I have with the game is that I wished you would make challenges for the game like the other games. If your interested in ideas for games or like creative opinions sometimes let me know. I enjoy your apps and have put a great deal of hours on them offline. I play for a good solid time when I’m bored. I’d play it more, if it had more challenges, but like offline challenges. Eh, I don’t know. I’m just an opinion on a broad connection with millions of users. But if anyone listens this is my review. I’d give it a solid 5 stars
