Review summary

Players find Idle Sports Stadium Tycoon easy to learn and engaging, with an enjoyable idle loop and active events. However, frequent long ads, slow currency progression with unpredictable bonuses, and event/reliability bugs dampen the experience. UI inconveniences and non-skippable upgrade cutscenes add friction. Overall, accessibility and engagement are strong, but monetization prompts, pacing, and bugs hinder long-term satisfaction.

Pros

Easy to learn and follow
Simple and enjoyable idle gameplay
Has events / ongoing content and activities

Cons

Excessive/long ads and frequent ad breaks
Slow progression and unclear/unpredictable bonus multipliers
Bugs and reliability issues with events (rewards not received and rankings vanishing)
UI/UX annoyances (non-skippable upgrade cutscenes and hard-to-find/unfilterable cards)

2025-01-16	We*****	The game itself is good, easy to follow and understand but there are some areas that I believe need some work. I believe the incentives for watching an add should be greater than they are. And somethings just take so long to get and accumulate enough of that after a while you start to lose interest in the game. An example of that would be the tickets it takes to upgrade characters and stadiums, it takes way too long to accrue them

2023-09-13	ra*****	This game is simple, enjoyable and a good idle game to play but I think it needs some improvements in some areas. The biggest for me is “getting customers for your stadiums”. This is the basic feature that involves spending your currency directly on the stadium to increase its base value ie, going from 1000 customers to 1050 and so on. There needs to be a way to know what your next multiplier rate will be before upgrading. Sometimes upgrading gives you a 2x bonus, other times it gives you a 5x, 10x, 50x multiplier and I’ve even seen up to 500x. It all seems completely random and inconsistent between stadiums. So not knowing before hand what that value is going to be is annoying. In the timed events, where it’s harder to earn the currency it sometimes takes a while to get enough money to upgrade to the next level. But when deciding between two stadiums - you spend money on stadium A, that only gives you a 2x bonus, and then later you spend it on stadium to B, to find out that was a 50x bonus, I would have preferred to spend the money on stadium B first to make things easier. But because the game doesn’t tell you what the next bonus is, it gets frustrating wasting hours worth of saving to find out you picked the wrong one. Some of the other small things I think need improvement are being able to skip the small cut scene when you purchase permanent upgrades to stadiums. Watching the game go through every stadium to tell me “Permanently 2x” and not being able to skip is just an annoying waste of time. Especially when I don’t have some of the stadiums unlocked. Finally, the cards in the regular mode should be have filter options to show unlocked/locked, or be able to sort them somehow. The first cards you unlock are at the bottom of a list of 100 cards and for the first few “weeks” of upgrading, I didn’t know where to find them because I just assumed the unlocked cards were at the top. And then having to scroll to the bottom every time I upgrade now is beyond ridiculous.m, especially since the other 90 cards I’m scrolling past, aren’t unlocked.

2023-03-25	Th*****	It’s a fun game, but there are way too many ads, and they’re way too long. It’s really shady how the upgrades work. Like I said it’s fun, but really frustrating and not worth the time to play it.

2023-02-22	i2*****	Immediately upon installation of this game, I noticed a huge amount of battery drain. I even had the game closed and was seeing a massive battery drain. I can normally use my phone ALL DAY and have well over 50% but with this game not even running in the background, I was at 33% give or take by NOON TIME. Uninstalled it within 3 days. IPhone 12 completely up to date.
