Pocket Champs PVP Racing Games Reviews

by Justin_pre_hall

This games starts out very fun but you will quickly realize that it is a money grab. You reach a point where you cannot rank up in the regular games so you need to get equipment to help you win. The equipment will only be available in the store since you aren’t winning races to unlock it for free. Meaning you reach a point in the game where you will have to pay $10 to even continue playing the game, since there are no other levels to play other than the one you’re stuck on. There are events to play but you can only play them 5 times and once you’re out of turns you have to pay for tickets. All together it costs 0.20 cents per race to do any of the events and $10 to continue the game. Not to mention that you may get stuck again, like me, and need to buy another pack in order to keep playing. None of the advertised qualities are in this game either. Ads say that you can play with friends and that the races are competitive through user input, but there is no option to add friends or join a game with friends and the races are fully automated meaning you will simply start the race and watch your character hoping it will win. The game makers knew what they were doing and it is a complete rip off. Do not download.

I love this game. My 8 & 5 yo both love this game. Apple needs to really crack down on developers allowing ads that are rated mature in apps that are only rated 4+!!! This is 100% unacceptable!!!. I have made it a habit to play apps for at least a week before allowing my kids to play them to try to protect them. I thought this game was clean… nope! Got 2 ads with sexual content at 9am!!! that I would be embarrassed if a stranger walked by & saw or heard coming from my phone! At least restrict mature content to late night when kids 4+ will not be playing! There is no way to report to Apple or the developers. As a parent, the only thing we can do is give negative reviews & delete PocketChampsPVPRacingGames . Parents beware!… of all apps with ads!!! 🤦🏼‍♀️😡🤦🏼‍♀️
Update 9/2/23
I did contact the developer thru PocketChampsPVPRacingGames & their website. Crickets. Thru PocketChampsPVPRacingGames got a chatbot. I will update again if I actually receive any information or explanation. I also report such apps to Apple every time I get one of the adds. Hopefully repetitive annoyance will make them update their policies & app rating protocols. Doubtful. It’s not acceptable that sexual ads are playing in a game rated for 4+!!!

This isn’t pvp, not one bit. When you click the trophy reward up top, the ‘percentage of players’ in each league changes every single time you click. When you start a match, every other player is within a close power range, and they’ll have odd trophy numbers like 657 or 1182, you can only possibly get trophies by the tens. Furthermore, you can close PocketChampsPVPRacingGames for as long as you like mid queue and come back to see that it’s still matching you with the same people. A real multiplayer game would have a network error. The players will continue to emote after crossing the finish line, which is impossible since as soon as you cross the line you’re taken to another screen. They will also rarely use the right gadget, which is how I win against people with 900 power while I only am in the 500’s. The store will scale prices with how many gems you have, so most skins will cost all of your gems, and they always say 50% off or something. The names you’ll encounter repeat fairly often, which shouldn’t happen if you’re flying up in trophies. Like seeing the same person but 200 power higher is nearly impossible unless the expect me to believe all those people are paying money. It’s a gimmick, nothing about this game is multiplayer. I still find it fun, but it feels like a bit of a lie.

Im not even able to get into the game before getting kicked out at 20% loaded to give a proper review. A few months ago i saw an ad on instagram for this game and thats when i first downloaded the game. I opened the game and the first 30 seconds were fine, agreed to terms and conditions, and watched as it loaded until it got to about 20% and out of nowhere the screen turns black and it takes me to the home page. First I thought it was a glitch or a hiccup from the game, then I tried a fee more time and the same thing happened. I realized I wasn’t just a coincidence but maybe a bug in the game that would let me play. I deleted the game hoping this bug would be fixed by the developers with a few updates later. Some time went by and i seen the game ad again so I thought the bug would’ve been fixed by now but when I redownloaded it, the same thing happened again, agreed to terms and conditions and it tweaked out after 20% and was never able to play it which is unfortunate because it looks like such a fun game.

There's basically no gameplay. It's a vehicle for ads, and after you get to a certain point, they start throwing ads at you after every r«ce to get you to spend money to make them go away. IMHO luring players in with tap-then-wait "gameplay" and waiting until they might seem invested to start throwing unavoidable ads at them ALL THE TIME is false advertising. Who knows what else they'll decide to demand if you keep playing.

There are other games to play. Even a game that says up front "$1 to make ads go away" would at least be honest in its greed. This one seems designed to make young kids put a lot of small transactions on mom's account and hope they're small enough that a parent won't notice.

And like all such things, it's pay-to-win.

Like literally I really had no upgrades for my equipment and literally I could not even beat that race that is unfair fixer game right now the reason I write this review is because you already know that that part is unfair like literally I could not even upgrade my equipment and I kept on losing and losing and losing that’s literally unfair man fix it to where the appraiser cheaper or just do whatever you can to fix the game because it is very unfair and it is not fair it’s not how the game is played like you can’t just make stuff that expensive so they can upgrade equipment on the level that they can’t beat that’s totally unfair fix the game and thank you for reading edit* sorry if I was a little bit aggressive it was just really annoying
And thank you

So this is a mobile copy of another game right, so youd expect similar gameplay but no instead of playing fun minigames that require skill to level up your character you have to wait for stupid boxes to actually get more points so you can get into the next arena. and the gadgets don’t matter because someone with 4 more points than you can out do anything you do even if you have a better gadget also its super superrr pay to win and isnt any fun after a couple races because it just turns into waiting for a box to open so you can actually play the game without getting last place every time and leveling up your gadgets is so useless it barely does anything its just a waste of gold and the whole thing overall is waste of time also there are a lot of things that need to be balanced.

Why is it players that have already won certain events and have attained special power ups being put into the races? Like someone unlocked the TREE costume which you have to finish the grueling races. I’ve been on everyday collecting resources trying my hardest and even spent a few dollars only to continuously be paired against players that HAVE CLEARLY FINISHED and are WAY ahead. It makes it impossible for regular players to pass I am seeing so many players that have items costing 20$, when did this happen? This game used to be awesome you were able to compete at least. What happened? I’m not even a NEW player either I literally have almost every character skin. It’s as if the difficulty ramped up over 9,000

Edit: I bought well over 30 extra tickets just for this last bit HOW IN THE WORLD do I have a event power of over 800 have spent $ AND literally not get passed the super long flying level I just want my tree skin why do I keep getting paired to race against others that have ALREADY done the task at hand? This might just be one I delete at this rate

Graphics are cute, but the game eventually just becomes seeing what you end up with when you open chests and hoping to get improvements to whatever stat you need to pass the current “race.” Races have no player input and watching them eventually becomes about as interesting as watching the many ads you will need to watch if you want to progress rapidly without paying for the many forms of micro-cash. That are particularly boring because after playing for a little while you can usually guess the race results just by seeing what items all your competitors are using. Most items are totally useless and eventually you’ll wish you could get rid of most of them so that you would only get improvements to the 10% that you use. Game tries to look multiplayer, but you are obviously playing against bots for everything other than current tournament placement.

Don’t waste your time, there really isn’t much of a game here, just an excuse to try to sell you improvements to a character that doesn’t do anything actually fun. I’d give it zero stars for game play, but I threw a couple it’s way just for the nice production quality (that still doesn’t make the “game” fun).

by SilverSloth8

This is such a nice game! It has a cool gameplay, and a lot of potential. But, some of the levels are impossible for a while until you purchase, or just keep playing events, till you get some special climbing or swimming gear. I am not joking. I don’t do that. They are of course not impossible, impossible, but it also seems like they are made to force you into buying stuff. When I pass the level, or it’s fixed, this review will go with it. If you don’t mind spending a little, this is a great game. Cool art, and they do give reward and wardrobe chests. Gadgets while not easy to obtain, are useful, and contain full value. Wardrobe, as I mentioned is varying, and the gadgets themselves are works of art. Ish. As for the training, I don’t like the limited training slots, and how long it takes to train a champ. The blue ones take 3 hours and purple 8. Too long! They are a gem and ad waster. The events take forever to appear, as you have to go up in rank, but they are kind of cool. I wish there was another skill, like jumping or something. Lastly, there are not enough tickets! They should give 10 or 15 at a time, so they last longer. Please fix some of these things, and I will edit the review and the stars. I will write Edit: 3stars, level or something like that. The review will stay the same. Thanks, and keep up the nice gameplay.

This game is good I understand only made me stop playing roblox for one day now Im mad for wasting my 24hrs of time here’s something I’ll tell you, npc have better upgrades some even have less level than me and win in a running race and i usually get 4 5 or 6 sometimes 3 or 2 but mostly those bad numbers also I am deleting this I don’t care and i don’t understand like some people have bad speed and upgrades and some even win and some aren’t even real you bad game it fun and all but like ads and those people have things that are usually gotten from either very luck or things I haven’t even gotten alot of flying points I never ever see those bags and I’ve played this for one day and this is my second day realizing that it’s bad I’ve gotten to the top of crown leader boards and won but still I got crappy $h1% things from it so yeah it also gives players / not real players things that I should’ve gotten yesterday in the other ranks that was below golden rank please make it actaully real players instead of not real people also how do you get odd numbers lol and lemme say a person can beat you in a race with way less run points in a running only race and have a trash running item so yea( needs a lot alot lot lot fixing I’ll quit tomorrow if not fixed now fix it and don’t forget to have real players playing

by Catcremie

At first, I really enjoyed this game. However, a few days in, it began getting repetitive and it seemed that everyone else had better items than me. Then, I realized what other reviewers have also realized: PocketChampsPVPRacingGames description “…action-packed multiplayer” was untrue. It isn’t multiplayer, instead it has computers with real-player like names to pretend it is. Proof: You cannot send emojis after you pass the finish line as it changes to another screen. However, all the other “players” seem to be able to do it. Also, it is not action-packed because you do not actually do anything in the race, you just hope your character will win. Also, the events are infrequent and you need tickets to play. Every 20 minutes, you get a new ticket, capping at 5. It would be nice if you lowered this time to 10-15 minutes instead. Also, the CPUs have really good items that you realistically cannot have obtained. Please lower their power/strength and/or their items. Please consider my suggestions and make an actual multiplayer option. Thank you!

The constant ads are causing my phone to lag and at times even completely freeze. I completed the champ Olympics and didn’t receive the final reward because the forced ad locked up my phone and when I was finally able to get back to the game from PocketChampsPVPRacingGames Store pop up I was given jack squat even though it says completed. I was already annoyed by a forced ad every other match but now I’m actually mad. Mad enough to write this review instead of just remove the game, which I do 99.9% of the time when a game forces ads even once.

(Second review)
Now not even a day later I have to come back and lower another star. Last night an ad broke the game and played an obnoxious sound from the ad nonstop until I was finally able to close it. Then another ad breaks the game when I’m supposed to get a chest and no surprise, when I am able to return I’ve gotten nothing from it. In a game where stats matter, every potential gain lost is a huge setback. I assume it won’t be long now until I give it 1 star and never play again.

by SuperJayKay

So I was playing the game and I kind of started to enjoy it, mostly because the game reminded me a lot about Duck Life 3 which I played all the time before flash was disabled, but that’s not why I’m here today. You see, your training system is way too unbalanced. I understand your whole system of cpus having real names of players but with asynchronous activations so that it decreases downtime, but did you really have to give them all the good gear? Not to mention the fact that I could barely get any new gear from any of the chests, yet all the cpus seem to have all the good gear to themselves. And the main reason why I’m here today is because of the fact that all the training stuff that I receive is not even close to what I need, like I get a bunch of flying swimming and climbing upgrades but hardly ANY running upgrades. So yeah, your whole training system is literally composed of just random chance with what training my character is gonna receive, and all of that just from waiting 3-12 hours… just for training I don’t even want or need.

Been playing this for about a year now. There are a lot of inconsistencies in this game. It is fun but rewards as you get into higher levels are not scaled appropriately. Same amounts of coins same amount of gems etc etc. the game crashes like crazy as well which is annoying. It double bills you on occasion. I’ve gotten refunds but had I not caught it………. Anyway. Trophy road likes to change player levels on you at times making it impossible to advance. Which clearly makes this a money grab which I understand is the developers point otherwise there is no app but they could change the algorithm so it does not cheat. It is not uncommon for me to barely be advancing and then get a legendary bag with 50 points of power ups. Only to return to the trophy road to see that I am suddenly competing with people that all of a sudden got 150 in power ups making it not possible to advance. In other words I was better off before getting my 50 points. These are easy things to fix in the coding. Guess it depends how greedy the owners want to be. Anyway. Could have been 5 stars. Maybe someday it will get to 5 stars.

I love the game, hate wait times and whatnot but I can stick with it because this game has lots to offer to me. Nice and simple, don’t have to think much and everything is cute. My main issue at the moment is that when I try for a special event, namely for a gadget that I don’t have or something. People who already have the gadget and a speed boost, Cheetah Bot for example are competing against me for that too. Making it next to possible to get one. There is no reason that 80% of the time; 4 out of the 6 players present should already have the gadget that I’m racing to get. Not only that, for my time zone (CST) the event was mainly held during the night, leaving me with few hours during the day to even participate. In the course of 4 hours you can generate around 8 tickets which are gone when you have overpowered opponents that literally have legendary gadgets tailored to the course you’re playing. While competing for said legendary gadget. My main thing is why can you compete for a gadget you already have. Is there no specification for the events? Can’t we come up with another event for people who have the gadgets but need some other kind of boost? I just want a level playing field where I’m not guaranteed to lose 90% of the time. Everything in this game requires waiting unless you’re gonna drop hundreds on the game.

by Eagles_FK

There are several issues with the game that I have reported that just seem to get the same response on, ‘We will pass this the information on to the team for further review.’ It never seems to get fixed. During Spookie weeks the climb boost does not work on all maps. Doing the special promotion events you may go 2 or 3 events getting promoted before getting a point. And with the newest update the graphics are off and your gadgets will not work or show up. Right now the update came out 5 days ago and I have been able to get in the game with no issues. Well, until today. I go to get in the game and it says to ‘Update’ the game. I click the ‘Update’ button and I get sent to PocketChampsPVPRacingGames Store. There it shows the game is up to date and to click the ‘Open’ button. I click the ‘Open’. I end going back to the game and it tells me again to ‘Update’ the game. I have closed everything done several times, restarted my iPad, and retried several times. Nothing is working. Guess this is one way to get rid of a person who is running all over others and taking top spots in leader boards.

This game cheats. It goes above and beyond with increasing difficulty in competitions to make sure you lose consistently in hopes that the user will spend money on bags and chest. The bags and chest are mysteries. There is no guarantee you will get what you need to become competitive amongst other players. example you can build up your character with points earned in different categories to make your champ competitive, you could also earn gadgets that will aid you in winning races and earning points. Now here’s the trick you will win and win and win and then all of a sudden when they big prizes on the Line. stop winning. You will be placed amongst others. that have higher rankings and access to more advanced gadgets. You will lose every time until you start spending money you spend money and you get what you need and then it’s no longer valuable. You spend money again then you don’t get what you need you spend some more money then you don’t get what you need and so psycho that doesn’t stop. It is a very sick practice and they need to be sued because it’s predatory. Imagine your kid using your card and spending 100s of dollars on this game trying to win and it’s a never ending cycle so be warned. Do not get caught up and winning. Just enjoy the game because to their credit it is fun, but do not get caught up in the competitive and winning. It is a game to occupy your hands and your time while you waiting and have nothing to do nothing more nothing less.

by UncleFel

I just downloaded the newest update and they just changed it so you have to win 3 times the amount of races before you get the little training bags now. I am not ok with having to do 3 times the amount of work for it

Edit: Thank you for the response. While that is probably very helpful to those having issues winning, to those of us like me who have zero problems winning and getting a training bag it’s a punishment. Like I said, I now have to play 3 times as much to get the same reward. If you’re looking for a way to have the best of both worlds it’s easy: make it so if you win you get a training bag and you’re reset to 0 stars. If you lose you get a star. If you collect 3 stars you get your training bag anyway. That way those of us who have no trouble winning don’t have to work 3 times as hard for the reward we were getting, and those who have trouble winning have their guaranteed training bags as well. Win win.

by Appiaokay

The game is very fun, but there is a lot that needs to be changed or fixed. I should be able to win since most ppl uses items that isn’t going to help in the race, and for some reason they can and I always end up 6th or 5th and i be using my lvl up hood speed items. For some reason i still lose because other ppls items is faster. Like for climbing I used that skateboard jet thing, and I end it up last ig people don’t need anything to climb, for some reason there hands is more faster than using equipments. I get your point to make your character fast helps but I bet some of them don’t even have enough training points to be fast 😐 and for some reason there low lvl equipment same as mines can still help them win 😐 like are they hacking or what?

by THICC PAM

At the beginning of the game its easy because they are all bots but when you get to the 3000 range things start to get a little difficult. From my personal experience, the recommended power lvl was 234 but I was a bit too under lvl because the game had given me barely any flying training bags and I keep losing to this one lvl since the only thing you need to be first place is flying power and a good flying gadget. It was also hard for me to get new and better gadgets like the swordfish which I got from doing a challenge. The champion chest is worse for getting new gadgets and sometimes the ads for getting tickets were broken. Honestly, if you wanna be good at the game, you might wanna balance out your powers or else your screwed.

by Taco Apple Boy Girl

The game is interesting to say the least. I have almost 200star points and I keep going against people that are 5-12stars. It would be more competitive if you were going up against people around your star rating so you actually have a chance of feeling competitive. I like the game but I don’t think I’m gonna keep playing for to much longer because I can start a race and walk away knowing I’m going to win every single race. There needs to be more balance between you and the other people you go up against. I like beating children at there own game but this is a bit much even for me.

Update:
After getting a developer response saying to up my trophies for more balance. My star power is now 451 and trophies are 2690. I’m now up against 28 star players. Yes there trophies may be around the same level but there star power is not. Then again proving how EXTREMELY UNBALANCED this game is AGAIN. The people who made this game are giving you corporate answers to keep playing there game with ZERO incentive to actually fix a single thing in there game. I’m never playing another game by this company ever again.

There’s a lot I love about the game, characters are adorable, collecting everything gets addicting, and races are extremely quick so it’s great if you just need to pass a few minutes of time. But one thing that’s driving me crazy is the level differences in the races… sometimes 50-70 levels above or behind yours. Coming in 6th or 1st place constantly only because of huge level differences takes a lot of the fun from it. Please work on this!
But then also now finding out that you don’t actually race against anyone, the game is just using everyone’s characters in each race. That takes all the fun away from collecting and using any emojis to communicate with. What’s the sense, no one is actually there… so I stopped bothering with them.
The purchases are insanely high. Anyone in their right mind wouldn’t pay for that stuff. A buck or two is one thing… but 10-50+ for small packages? Let’s get real here, it’s a mobile game… can buy an Xbox/PlayStation
game for those prices.
This game does have a ton of potential, I hope to see it get there.

by Panda19902008

I DID love this game. I love the champs as they remind me of another game. I had this game for almost a year and it took me a LONG time to get new gadgets. Now I am stuck on a race, can’t move forward no matter how strong I get because people who had the update got a legendary item and they are continuously winning the races. Whereas I have been stuck with the same gadgets for a while.
In my opinion, while it’s up to chance for what you get gadget wise in chests, I think it would be better to have a chance to get all the gadgets first BEFORE all the repeats happen. There are a few rare gadgets I didn’t get, it you could get them in any normal or rare chests, but I never got them. The last legendary race, I got the frog prince (again) but not any other legendary gadget that I don’t have.
If there was a way to get even the rare gadgets that I don’t have, I would be happier. But I will just lose races so that I can win crowns. Because I can’t pass the one level because all the racers have the new submarine gadget and nothing I use is helpful to get me to win.

by Pcnew21

I have been this game for some time now, reached top tier (supposedly top 1% of players). The down side to this is, the game fills race spots with bots that are 1000 points higher than you, making it almost impossible to place in the top three. Even if you purchase booster training bags that put you close to the level of the other racers, it just bumps the bot level up again. It’s just a way to get you by more booster bags, which really will never help you win, as the game just jacks up the bot level.
Don’t get me wrong, I like this game, it’s just tedious monotony trying to beat the upper levels. The bot AI needs to be adjusted, if the developer cares about PocketChampsPVPRacingGames users. If not, then don’t change it, I am sure people will still continue to buy the in game training bundles to try and catch the bots.

It’s A money sink if you let it be users! If you don’t but the bundles, it will take you along time to advance. Which is fine. I don’t think there are enough top tier players that really play often to fill the race slots, which is fine, then bump the races down to less racers and remove the bot system.

by @ab_the_creator

Honestly I wanted to wait on reviewing this game but the game keeps showing it’s consisting nature of being inconsistent. While the game has good features like the graphics, it plays for you, events, skins, and even other things like emojis! The reality is you’re either going to play for free and watch a lot of ads to advance to level up you’re player or you’re going to pay for their VIP get double rewards and yet still have to worry about not progressing. The wait times are atrocious and the amount of ads to watch in order to achieve what you want is nauseating. Events are good but you need tickets to play and tickets are acquired either by waiting, micro transactions, or the in-game currency. Even at that, you will often be beaten by players with lower power or sometimes absurd power ups they get. What i’m trying to say it’s a PAY TO WIN type game. You’re constantly never going to be on top and if you are if short lived bc the AI will eventually catch up and make races impossible to beat unless you are patient or wait times or if you get lucky. I don’t want to keep playing the game but because i’ve spent money on it, you sort have to get your moneys worth out of it.

by Drakooo2xx

Good game just a little stingy, Honestly at first i fell in love with the game itself but it makes progression very hard, the gold amounts that you get in these chest ratio to what it takes to upgrade your gadgets is very slow, the time on every bag no matter the rarity is absolutely preposterous, and I’m constantly getting the wrong bags for my skill upgrades, i never get new gadgets even when i grind tournaments that i somehow come in first in even though i lose alot… but i always see a good gadget in that shop worth a good lump sum of gems… but im not paying and its seems like if i dont then this endless long dreadful growth of endless losing to AI and All the Dailys and Permanent Tournaments are always impossible and a waste of time and the one at the very bottom that i do win and het first, i still always get like 50 coins or the little chest and everything in that mf is green 😒 clash royale has a much better rarity percentage rate so ill be there more often…. 😪 give it and update soon or itll be getting deleted

by MrPeashooter

Starting out, the game is pretty fun and simple, very easy to grind and climb the ranks. But once you start getting higher up, the game is forcefully rigged to the point where you have to spend money to even stand a chance. Been stuck at the same trophies for awhile now because I don’t have a certain gadget I need to win, but I keep getting constantly “unlucky” to where the game won’t give it to me. But what a coincidence that it just so happens the item I need cost $10, bundle with other garbage to make it seem worth the price. The chest system is trash since you will only get greens, percentages are too low for anything else. Gets to a point too where everyone in events is double, sometimes triple your stats so you just get left in the dust. Opening bags to increase stats take way too long too. I’m so disappointed because it’s honestly a fun game to waste time, but it’s just gets aggravating losing because I can’t get a certain item to win.

by Gamergirl2468

I just started playing and I’m spending too much time waiting for slots to open. I’ve played for 2 days but about twice a day. It is fun but after playing one race I easily forget about this game. No I do not want to get notifications for games. I would go insane with the amount of games I have on my phone. Maybe allow watching unlimited ads to unlock bags faster. I refuse to pay for free games. I understand that you need to be paid that's what I thought ads were for. There’s not many ways to earn money and gems also and that’s a bummer.

Anywho if you want to hook a newbie maybe allow more options to watch ads to enjoy the game enough to get hooked. I’ve done more waiting than playing. At least offer side missions to waste time in between waiting for bags slots to become available. I don’t want to race and miss out on a good bag. Maybe use energy based side games. This game has so much potential. It is quite fun, I just haven’t been able to enjoy the free version.

by Tech3xpert

This game got addicting at first. It was so fun to play until it became play to win. Now I’m almost every race, everyone else has fancy gadgets that I won’t even be able to see for a long while, nevertheless use. And in just overall, the other AI are just so much faster with no gadgets, than me level 7+ gadgets.

Also once I got in the high level 20s, now the game either crashes when I try to race, or makes my phone have a complete stroke. Even with nothing else in the background. I have an iPhone 14 Pro Max with the best hardware available so I’d think I’d be able to run it, but I guess not. Seems like it’s very borderline unplayable.

However if both of these were fixed then this would actually be a really good game. I tried it because the graphics looked outstanding and they definitely hold up to expectations. The developer definitely did a good job on the game, it’s just these issues.

by Prisonmike0801

Man this game is fun, but after a bit, it’s just Impossible to progress without just waiting hours and hours and days without actually doing anything to wait for the bags to open. If you get lucky and get good gadgets, you’ll progress smoothly for a little bit, and then the bots will catch up in power in no time and surpass your power and it’s possible to keep going way past your power level if you get lucky, but if you do that you hit a wall where you CANNOT win at all unless you get more skill points or better gadgets (which come from bags which take forever or by paying lots of real money) I would say you can do the challenges with the tickets, but even those are get super hard to win without paying money. It’s like there’s a point where I can’t do anything but just sit and do nothing and just wait and not play for whole days until I can open bags to try to continue. Pretty ridiculous if you ask me.

by ASpaceBat

Seemed good at first, I have been playing for months, in the beginning I was able to keep pace with the other players, if I got stuck I could just train and use the fortune wheel to give me a boost. Now with the new update it’s basically impossible to get anything good using the fortune wheel, which was already crap, and is now even worse. On top of that I don’t get a balance of different training bags anymore, instead I just get climbing bags with just a few swimming bags speckled in. I haven’t gotten a running back in like over week and honestly it doesn’t matter because no matter how long I train to get past a level I am always put in with people who are my level or higher. I haven’t even mentioned the fact that events are basically impossible to win without money once your at a high level and getting parts for gadgets just will never happen unless you want to spend 600 gems for 2 parts at a time. And that’s a deal lol
Anyways had fun for a while, hope you guys figure it out.

“Hi” App game developers how are all of you doing hope you all are doing alright and not working too hard. Anyway all I want to say is that I hope this Review get to you all or to one of you Anyway I have a pocket champ issue so be glad I came to you all about this issue. :-) So issues being which I really hoping that app game gets fixed and updated possibly soon. So as I was gonna say is that last time I played I don’t know if it’s my phone or the game I’m just assume it’s the game so last time I played Pocket Champ 😕🫤😕🫤😕 I heard a weird noise in case you wonder not in the start of the game but at main game screen 📺 when the game character looked like it was sleeping 💤 is when I heard the weird sound in case you wonder what did the weird noise sound like “well I think 🤔 it sounded like a continuous beating sound” if that helps anyway I did delete it ok please please please fix it and update it please fix it to where it won’t make anymore weird noise ok I’d greatly appreciate it it’s a really great game. 👱🏻‍♀️🤩👍🏻 so again please fix and update it it’s a really great game best part about it. “It seems to play itself which is great I just tap the emoji ha” but yeah please fix that that be really great. Keep up the great work guys. All you app developers are doing a great job 👏🏻 keep it up.

I've been playing for a while and it's a cool game. I just wish these few suggestions would come true.

1. It should be easier to get skills. There should be somewhere where YOU can actually train your champ, even if it's not as effective as the training bags- also, I wish you could throw bags away and get new ones. I have so many flying bags and my flying skill is around 500 while my swim skill is barely 430.

2. I also feel as though it's hard to obtain the currency in the game- mostly coins. You're constantly getting cards to upgrade your gadgets, but then you need a ton of coins to actually do it. Feels like a scam.

3. Why so many ads? I feel like if someone never watches ads for rewards, then sure, throw some at them. But, I watch ads for rewards all the time and STILL get more ads on top of that. Is that really necessary?

4. My last and probably most important complaint is that once you get to a certain level the events just stop happening. Like, there are still the tournaments and the fortune wheel, but no actual events and it makes it boring.

Other than that, Pocket champs is really fun to play. The champs are also really cute ^__^

First and foremost, it should be easier to tell what terrain you’re going through. I’ve mistaken the blue ground for water when it was actually just a blue ground, and after “learning my lesson” I was fooled into thinking it was ground when it turned out to be water. That’s more specific to the challenge that just came up, terrible challenge. Another thing is my bubble gadget that is suppose to give me a “boost for swimming instead of flying” doesn’t work. It says I get a 220 swim boost for infinite duration and time, which seems a little over powered, but it literally doesn’t do anything and upgrading it doesn’t boost its stats at all. Just a fat +0. Please fix these things. Other than that, it’s a really fun game; it almost reminds me of Duck Life, a game I played in school. Keep it up!

by MtotheG123

Firstly, this game is fantastic. Not really an idle game as described, but very fun. The forced ads after nearly every auto-ran short race (about 10-15 seconds) is too much. They are ”skippable”, but still take about as long as the race to do so. The major issue, however, is that after purchasing a reasonably priced $2.99 welcome pack of items and removal of aforementioned ads, I received nothing. I was charged but didn’t receive the receipt email the automated help desk is asking for. Currently awaiting a response from the help team that was quoted to come within a 24 hour period. Will update.

by Everything’s Stupid

Man there’s a lot more to it then winning but now i can’t beat a single leveling card with the right cards in hand to make the most sense for the first round and then you can get the most fun in a game where the player can get a good shot at a decent chance of getting a decent chance at a good chance at a win and win the first time around and win a good shot in the first place so it’s not a big issue but I don’t know if that’s a big deal for you to have a good chance at a chance of getting the win in a good game if you’re a player and not having a chance of getting it being a bad one or not having to be able play it all at least in a bad one and I think that’s the best game in my mind you have to play a lot more fun to play a lot more of that game is the game is the game and that’s why you have to get the most interesting 🧐 and then the other players can play a game of all that you don’t get it and that’s why I’m a little too hard and that’s the only reason I’m a little over two 2️⃣ and that’s what I’m a little better I mean 😪 and it’s a little too bad for the other players I can’t even beat a single game bro please send feedback!!!!!!! 🙏 🙏

I have only been playing Pocket Champs for a few days but I already love it. It reminds me of the Duck Life games on Cool Math where you upgrade your duck’s running, climbing, swimming, and flying in order to win races and tournaments. I used to play Duck Life games all the time with my friends growing up in school, so this game brings back some good memories. However, there are some bugs in the game that I would like to address. 1) The game has crashed on me on numerous occasions. 2) Eventually, after the game has crashed on me many times, when I try to get back into the game, it acts like I am just starting the game and it asks me to accept the terms of the game. Then, since the game thinks I’m a new player, it resets my tournament positioning. So far, I’ve only made it to contender because it resets my position back to rookie when I have reached contender if the game crashes enough. When this happens, I still retain my points for that day but I am in an entirely different tournament and I have a lot of catching up to do because I am a lot of points behind. This is frustrating to deal with because I would like to get to higher tournaments to earn better rewards but I haven’t been able to so far. I hope that these bugs will be addressed because I really enjoy this game and I believe that it has a ton of potential. Thanks.

by Beeeest Gaaaaaame Eeeeeeever!!

I gave the game 3 stars because it fun to play and easy to play on and off throughout the day. There is a good variety between the wheel, regular matches, tournaments etc. However I think the game could use some juice in the mapping area. Maybe adding some longer maps or different shapes instead of just running straight the whole time. My main add on is that there should also be DIFFERENT MODES!
Such as timed races or laps. I think you could also import some kind of relay or combined maps where you use different gadgets for each segment of the race. I think the best mode you could add to the game is a mode where you run the race twice. One time all the way through but then you immediately race back to the start, potentially retrieving something from the finish line such as a chest or a present like they are carrying in the loading screen.
I don’t know just some ideas, that I think could make the game that much more fun. I think the game overall is great and fun could just use a lil more spice. lol

by Tcalabasas

This game is a great way to pass the time it doesn’t take too much effort really none at all but what I’ve noticed is you’re not playing against real people idk if it’s recorded races from past players or completely robotic AI but what i can tell you is this game has a weird way of taking your level and what you’re capable of and putting you against players that are just better then you ive been stuck in one spot for days i have upgraded the necessary gadgets and ive added about 30-40 points into my character and some how some way im still just behind the competition it seems like this games takes however good you are and rigs you so you cant win in a way to artificially slow down progress it could be to add challenge but what challenge you aren’t really in control when you race and I’ve already did my grind to get my character up the only thing i can think of is they do this in a way to frustrate you into spending money ill spend money on a game i enjoy but dont rig my game to consistently make me win and then suddenly consistently make me lose over and over again I’ll delete your app before im forced into buying a chest in hopes of getting a jetski just to win a race

by Santini73

Overall I really like the game. It is a fun way to pass the time that doesn’t require you to constantly interact. Progress is achievable (obviously easier if you pay) but they do a good job of me keeping the competition pretty equal. The champs are cute and the different skins are fun, though some are really hard to achieve.
Where I’d like to see some improvements: I’d love it if the race would run in the background if I switch to a different app or lock the phone. While I enjoy watching the races, I don’t need to watch every single one. If you can’t make them run in the background easier provide a “speed up” option to skip to the finish or run at 5x speed.
I’d would also be fun if skin changes in race could happen. That way if you end up in a race with all ice cream champs you can flip out to another skin.
Finally, $9.99 for the locker each season is a little steep. Consider a tiered purchase ability; monthly, quarterly, annual or something like that. A packaged deal that you get a discount when you buy multiple.

by Dudeman0021

So the game pocket champs is amazing. Here’s the thing though. It’s a great game and all, but I have some ideas to make it even better. First off, maybe you could add some mini games so that instead of just racing, you can have some extra fun. Second, maybe you could add some other gadgets that don’t just add speed boost, but benefit you in the long run. Like for example, you could add a gadget that gives you a speed boost in the beginning like a run boost at the first run section or something, and then it gives you another at the last run section. Finally, you could make skins and certain currency easier to get. Like tickets. You start with five. When you run out, you can either watch ads or spend a really high amount of gems on some. Also make GEMS easier to get. The most I’ve ever gotten a once was 25. And that’s not really gonna help you in the game. In conclusion, it’s a great game and I love it, but I just wanted to give you some ideas to make the game a bit better. Take this into consideration. Thank you

This was a fun and exciting game. I was competing in the races and events and was having fun up to a point. Everything was exciting and I even spent a couple dollars on the in app buys. Then I got to a higher power level (around 700) and suddenly I started facing opponents with the power ratings of 900+. How can people compete when everyone is above in rankings by 200+ points. I like the game but I don’t understand why I’m not facing opponents closer to my ranking. Even if it’s 100+ would give a better chance at the races without having to put out your hard cold cash to buy coins or upgrades to race with much higher opponents. I don’t mind spending a couple dollars but with the prices of everything going up I would rate this as another game that is only worth playing up to a point unless you don’t mind spending your money.

by Roarry_345

If you’ve ever played sonic adventure 2 battle. You'd know they have a side part of the game where you take care of baby like animals called CHAO. They’re small with round water drop heads kinda like in this game 🤔. You can train them up to evolve into hero, normal, or dark chao. Theres many different forms of evolutions of these categories and they’re based off the skill you train them with, swimming, power, speed, fly, and stamina, and even combinations of each. Now once you feel like they’re good enough you can put them in mini games called karate or racing. this game seems to be an exact rip off of the racing. They run and go through obstacle courses climbing giant rock walls, flying over things and even swimming, all of these obstacles test their skills, including mini parts that test their intelligence like harvesting fruit, picking/choosing things. The font for the race placing is even the same as in the game.. 🤔

Edit: I’ve played it and actually am kinda enjoying it. Still doesn’t change the fact its a rip off.b

by Createanicknametheysaid

The game is a ton of fun, makes me want to play it for hours. However gameplay is limited, especially when your stuck. PVP battles would be sweet, or even a wagering system.

Multiple times a day I get stuck where I have run out of tournament tickets, but yet cannot advance up the ladder because the other players are better. I’ve spent money (too much to be honest) trying to further my gameplay, but have stopped because its very temporary before you hit the next wall where you still cannot advance.

Even though i’ve spent over $100 on in-app purchases with this game, i’m still offered bonus rewards for either coins or if I watch an ad. Not sure that showing paying customers rival game ads is a good idea. If I were the owner I would give a customer who bought in-app purchases those bonus rewards for free. I did indeed download an ad game while playing this game, and have found it’s gameplay to be something I can stay engaged in longer.

There is something missing from this game that would push it over the top. Hopefully they find a way to polish this addicting game with another avenue of gameplay, because I do enjoy playing it a lot. So to the developers, designers and engineers, thank you!

by Ricowinks

I had a ton of fun with this game for a few weeks; genuinely one of the best mobile games I’ve played. That being said, eventually I got to a point in my progression where it became impossible to win races without dipping into my pocket for in-app purchases. Essentially the CPUs become unbeatable. With all this in mind, I had a ton of fun with this game and was able to get pretty far before running into this issue. My one note to the developers would be to make upgrades a bit easier to obtain so the player won’t loose momentum or energy while still providing a challenge. I understand the developers need to profit off of the hard work they put into this game so I understand if this change can’t be implemented but I thought leaving a review would be helpful seeing as I went from being a daily player to barely touching PocketChampsPVPRacingGames .

by DaCheezMan

First off I must say, congrats on capturing my childhood nostalgia. As soon as I started playing all I could think of was Chao races from sonic adventure 2, but then as I was playing I noticed how long it takes for the training bags to open and level up. Like 3 hours to open rare bags, 8 hours for epic bags, then 12 hours for legendary bags and you can only do one at a time. The timing is fine I guess but you should make it so you can unlock multiple at a time, maybe start at 1 bag then as you progress make it so you work on more at once. All and all the games pretty great, not really pay to win unless you want it to be, but a lot of people I race against are weak because they don’t want to wait either. Please add an upgrading system for training bags.

by Avery Sanders

I have been playing this game for months now and it has been getting better and better. The chances for new gadgets is really good, I have been playing since August and I’m only missing 4 gadgets and I haven’t spent a dollar. I do have a couple of suggestions so that people can play for longer periods of time, 1. Something to do while your waiting for tickets or bags, the bags take 3-12 hours and you need the points to progress, the tickets take 30 minutes for 1, so something to do while your waiting for a few gems or free would be helpful, maybe mini games to earn tickets or other rewards or even just to pass time. 2. Another thing is getting bags takes a while for maybe there could be practice races where you can work on a skill to get points there could be milestones so you can get more points per however number of races won. Other than that the game is amazing and I really recommend it.

by Dbzmaster1213

The gameplay here is oddly addicting and I enjoy the sort of puzzle of figuring out which gadget works out best for which map. The prices for in-game purchases are also fairly reasonable and it only costs 99 cents to remove ads which is so much cheaper than a lot of other games. I do have a few issues that keep me from giving this full stars though. One is that certain maps are clearly designed for certain gadgets, and if you haven’t unlocked it you pretty much just can’t win on that map. My other main gripe is that certain gadgets that work on various types of terrain sometimes use up the last of their charge right as you enter a new terrain zone, and then you spend the rest of that zone unboosted as gadgets do not proc mid-zone. I think giving players an option to toggle on and off the gadget boosts mid-race would both solve that problem and make the game more fun. Still a good game though.

by ScorpiosRtheBestpartiers

Game is perfect besides a few things holding its gameplay back. For starters, more than 2 camera angles would be nice, or a camera angle that we can swipe around and control the view we see of our champ would be a good addition. There should also be an option to speed up races if possible. I understand watching the races is the main point of the game, but when tournaments are about to end and we’re trying to climb the ranks, it becomes time consuming to sit through every single race especially ones with longer tracks. Only other problem is in random races the bots we race will have a huge boost of speed for no reason and your champ will have no chance to actually win the race. Their head starts are faster, their gadgets are faster, and their champs are faster. All this can happen despite your champ and their gadgets being superior in every aspect compared to theirs’.

Hello my name is Joey I have 12,380 trophies and my power is 546 I’ve been play this game for a while now and I just wanted to say it’s amazing. Not mad at the game matching with people with better gadgets than me because I know it’s what the online person has and they get matched on those levels because there power excels in those categories. But that’s not the problem the problem is when are you guys going to add actual multiplayer would love to race with my friends even though I’ll be higher level but it’ll motivate them to keep playing and if they actually like it they’ll spend money. Just saying it’s kinda repetitive racing on the same maps and yes I’ve played long enough to tell you guys reuse maps a lot but it’s ok because I still enjoy it. Also I liked this game because of sonic adventure 2. going to try to get to the max trophies I can.

by Looks Inside Just Great

I for one appreciate all of you creators out there but I have a suggestion on the ads. So on this page the game shows you losing and getting second place and shows that everyone is the exact same except for the guy with the swordfish bot. I think it should be maybe it being a close call with everyone having something and all of them do good at some part but you persay took a pair of wings on a cliff map and everyone else took a hanglider or running shoes and maybe one took a pair of wings and you were the only ones close but you have a higher level and you beat them by a bit. It would convince younger players that you can win and you won’t get beat by someone really easily I love the game a lot and it’s very fun

by Nnnnnnduuubbbb

This is weirdly way more addicting and fun than I thought it would be. Couple of things I’d love to see implemented if the devs read these:

1. Time delta at the finish of each race. It would be awesome to see the deltas (in seconds, milliseconds, etc.) that shows how close you were to the person that finished ahead of you / to the first place finisher (similar to how you see time deltas in formula 1 or any other race)

2. Related to the above, would be cool for there to be a leaderboard of sorts. Maybe for each stage, a leaderboard of quickest completion times… maybe an overall leaderboard with player ranks as well?

3. Maybe introduce other types of races - for instance, “practice” sessions for swimming, running, flying (with and without diff types of gadgets) that put you against other players of similar levels. Perhaps every 10 practice wins awards you a random chance for skill points in that category (from green to legendary points)

4. Related to 3 above, you do run into walls with this game, so any other way to keep players engaged without having to wait for bags to open, tickets to recharge, etc would be great. (Coming from someone who watches a lot of ads to refill stuff and has also spent a decent amount of money on the game). Maybe a new reward / event can add bag slots to the main page so that you can have more than 4 at a time, or so that you can unlock more than one at a time

Anyway - all that said, love the game!

by Concerned Green Fellow

Have you ever played Sonic Adventure 2 (Battle?) It was a pretty fun pet simulator with a mediocre Sonic the Hedgehog game wrapped around it. The main point of the game was collecting resources to make these adorable little blue things better at racing and karate. This game focuses on the racing part, you receive training kits that take some time to work through but will level up your adorable little thing’s (mines still blue but there are other colors) stats, and make them better at running, climbing, swimming, or flying. You can only hold onto 4 of these kits at a time, which can make it feel like you have to wait to keep playing. You don’t, you can keep racing, but the reward kits get wasted which bums me out. (Suggestion to the devs: maybe show what the reward would have been and give players a chance to discard old kits for better ones.) Theres also gear to collect and level up and you can choose a piece of gear at the beginning of a race to boost a specific stat. Mobile game economy yadda yadda… I gave it 5 stars because its exactly what i thought it would be.

by ThePlatyus

I absolutely love this game. I love everything about it. BUT after today so many apple users can’t even play. Been like that all day with no announcement no update not even an acknowledgment that they are working on the issue. Messaged their support staff. Nothing. Over 250 comments on their last post on Facebook. All saying we can’t play. Nothing. No response. Please get this fixed guys. Games have problems. Games and updates sometimes cause bugs, BUT not saying “we are aware of issue and working on it now” all day long is very very bad support from a company that usually makes great choices and all though I don’t always agree with them, I get the feeling they are making these changes for a better game and better player experience. Just gotta get better at communication so the 1000’s and 1000’s of us that can’t play all day, don’t try to uninstall game and reinstall over and over again because they think you are doing nothing to fix it

by Jessngary143

I been playing this game for sometime now and it’s a great game to pass the time, i in joy it. You go and train your guy and more you do the better your guy becomes.

The only thing i can’t help to share is, your equipments you collet to improve your chance of wining is interesting enough, you got your Commons, Rares, Legendaries, & mythicals or so, but the thing want to point out if there is some rares that is somehow better then upper rarities, i think there 1 pacific rare for each thing your guy trains Run, Swim, Climb & Fly. Usually you know the rare the thing the better but there’s a handful of tracks those rare equipment is just way too broken for rares, the do have a limit of how fair you get and use infinity but you never ran out. That’s maybe a small complaint.

by SMOKEchk

The more these random ads pop up, the more I get closer to deleting this game. Ads kills the fun of game, I deleted a lot of games because the ads where so annoying. I do believe in ads if you choose to watch it, so you can receive certain perks or bonuses, but the random ones GOT TO GO. FYI developers, there is an ads that the music just keeps playing and you have to restart the game to get rid of it. But love the game play and the strategy behind it. Awesome Job!!

by Ttttttyyyyykkkkeeee

First off when I use my level six shoes and somebody else he use is a level three shoes they pass me even though I have a higher and better shoe in them and I think it’s a little too like overpowered for the other people and not you because to get like the turtle you have to open really nice chests and it’s hard to get that much like coins no I mean diamonds and like it’s a really fun game but it’s hard because you got a upgrade a lot and a lot and a lot.

by Ndnsisbevevsj

I love this game but am experiencing issues with my 4 star skateboard not always working in the races. Sometimes the competitors get stuck and do not finish the race which prevents me from being able to complete the race and collect my xp. Lastly, I am occasionally missing an item or two once I close and reopen PocketChampsPVPRacingGames .

Despite those issues, I think this game is great and am excited to see how it develops!

by Thunderstorm2835

I’m really looking forward to the new update for pocket champs. I can’t wait for the new accessory gadgets that can help you, and I love the sponsors! But I’m not really looking forward to the power update. If all the power is combined and evened then that’s good if you struggle with balancing your power. But that could also be unfair to you and other players. If all power is completely balanced then if your power is higher than another player then you would beat the other player completely. That would be good for you but unfair to the other player. And then vice versa. If the other player’s power is higher than yours then they would beat you completely. It would be good for them but unfair to you. I like that power levels are different in 5.0. On some sections players can pass you, but on others you can pass them because your power is diverse. I like the variety of power in 5.0 and I don’t want it taken away in the 6.0 update. Just think about that.

by Mythicalishere

Hello Dev team! Hope you had a great day! This game is a great game has a awesome concept it’s not that laggy and even has special crates like the games, Clash Royale, Rush Royale, and a bunch more! This game’s quality is great could use a few updates but great! It has it where if you have luck on your side and get all stats at a really good level you can be unbeatable! I like how this game puts you against players accounts but instead of the players account being a whole lot stronger than you it has it where go against players only of your level or close! This game is great you guys did great on it and I’m looking for much more from you guys hope you have a great day! -Mythical Plays

by Jaksterisawsome

I’m so tired of mobile games in the decade we are in because they are either Ad farms or in app purchase farms but thankfully this game is not one of those. I’m at race 155 and still having fun and have spent a total of $0. The ads are fairly placed and the gameplay, yet simple, is a blast. The simplicity but cuteness of the Champs adds to the game and you’re want to get 1st in tournaments to get new skins. Overall really fun game and will prob buy an in game purchase just to support the creators for creating a gem in a trash pile that mobile games is at right now.

by 44343444

I love it! This game has taken my 1st place trophy of games! And I’ve only been playing this game for 1 hour and a half so for a game to be this good in just a little bit of time is amazing! I have no better ideas for this game. It’s awesome, so download the game and see for yourself! If you don’t like it then delete it. But if you do, rate the game a 5-star as I did! And write a review! Talking about how good it is. One last thing, The developers do update the game, usually, a game comes out and no updates and no events but this game has that, for example, for the Halloween Event, you can earn new skins and level up your skills, fun stuff like that, and you don’t race NPC’s, crazy, I know and it’s an IDLE game so download it, nothing to lose. Great game!
-P.S Fun game
