User reviews
This game is okay... but it has a lot of problems. I am familiar with the stealing, but sometimes I can't figure out how the bot is stealing the balls from a different slot that is not across from where it landed. Also the game crashes half the time even with decent WiFi, and it doesn't let me sign in with my actual email, only with guest. It may be different with different laptops and computers, but I disliked this app and probably wouldn't recommend it for anyone.
