Good concept, but didn't make it well. It's totally a pay to play game, but paying should be helping increasing experience only. This game the progress will stop if you don't spend $ on it, because: 1. Too much HP on monsters. 2. Unable to choose starting point. 3. Monsters usually block the way to bounce to the back.

I loved the game until it constantly froze on me. I've beaten 6-20 every possible way I can think of nearly 12 or so times now and the game will freeze every time no matter who I choose or what build I have or if my phone is charging, etc. (edit) I am now noticing they are giving a generic reply to everyone noticing the game is no longer allowing anyone to complete levels so i think its safe to say we should give up on it. It was fun. (10/26 update didn't fix.) I'll change review if they fix it.

I love the concept of this game, and the gameplay. However, every time I complete a battle, nothing happens except for a frozen blue screen. A lot of other times it will say "connecting" when I have full Wi-Fi connection. It's frustrating because when that happens I have to start the game over, and I do not win the rewards I was supposed to win from defeating the boss in the battle. If this weren't a problem I'd give it 5 stars

It's been months and pun arena still won't work right, we've been complaining it's been 3+ months since the last time it's worked properly, it keeps getting stuck at the starting screen after finding 2 players and never initializes.. I've tried different phones, I've tried uninstalling and reinstalled, I've tried 5G data, I've tried WiFi, I've optimized my system for mobile gaming, I've doubled my RAM, I've contacted support multiple times and still they aren't fixing it...

I have been playing, almost since this game was new. I would give it 5 stars, because this is a great game, but it's a little glitchy. The problem I have, if I have to close the app while in the middle of a battle, I can come back, and it will ask me to continue. If I say yes, just the hero is there. No pets, no monsters, nothing. You have to start it all over, and if your doing the daily challenge, it takes your energy, and your number is tries. I love the game, but this is frustrating.

Love the concept, but it's a lot more pay to win than Archero (one of their other games), and that's saying something. In Archero, I can at least tell when my character is becoming stronger as I grind. In PunBall, however, I feel like I'm never making progress and whether or not I win is pretty much based on the enemy spawns and which abilities the game chooses to give to me each round. Not really worth playing you're planning to be a free to play user (like me).

I wasted a lot of time in this game and had some fun with it. I reached the point where I was doing such laughable little damage that it was impossible to progress without paying for better equipment I guess. It became more frustrating than fun after that, I lost my save (don't remember how) and decided I didn't want to keep playing. Lots of fun, to a limit.

Update. Been almost 6 months since my last review and nothing has changed. This game still gets Tangled Up in itself...you will lose your gems and your game. Lame and frustrating waste of time. Deleting it today. January 2024 review:For games with bouncing balls and upgradable characters this game is okay. Its inability to remember where you're at in a battle if you get interrupted for almost any reason is pretty dumb though. You will just lose your turn and die. Dumb. Hasn't gotten any better.

New update, still the same problem. Hardly any balance, game overpowers you with enemies until there's no room for any good angle, and I'm so sick of those stupid peashooters. It's already unplayable enough. They really should not be in every level. Game is only enjoyable if you stay at a lower level for more rewards, which is sad because even that gets repetitive. Good concept. Terrible execution. Really a shame.

I stopped playing for a year or so and came back. Something has changed and my character is now much weaker than it was before. I can't beat any stages, I've even tried dropping back about 10 stages and I still can't pass the stage. Update: Changed review to one star. Switched from WiFi to mobile network during daily challenge. Game gave me a network error, kicked me out, and didn't refund the energy I waited hours for. Useless. Why does a game like this need to be always online???
