UniBall Reviews

I've played UniBall many years ago and the game still holds up very well today. It is very easy to pick up and play but takes a while to master. Luckily, the community is very open to new players and you can find plenty of people willing to help you learn the ropes.

Uniball is an older "classic" style game we were accustomed to playing growing up. It's the type of game that is easy to jump into and play, but requires time/practice if you want to hang with the best competitively. I played it a handful of times 10+ years ago. I come from another "oldie but goodie" game (ARC) that has no direct connection, but is fairly familiar to each other. It's refreshing to see that Uniball has withstood the years, despite some hardships perhaps, and is now on steam thriving. Since joining the lobby and playing a bit the last couple days, the current community already in place has been nothing but courteous and willing to help in any way they can. Very newbie friendly, which is a rarity in online gaming these days. I'm a bit jealous, as I see mostly the opposite on ARC on a regular basis. I would highly recommend giving UniBall a shot if you are looking for something that can offer that nostalgia some of us older gamers enjoy while still being challenged from a competitive standpoint.

Really good game, amazing community for any new players. I found that all the older players were more than happy to help, as this game has quiet a steep learning curve, though it makes you want to keep playing as you can see the potential from the veteran players of what is possible.

One of the best games with co-op potential, takes time to learn all the tricks and mechanics but easy to jump into. Very welcoming and friendly community, variety of people playing from around the world. Haven't experienced any lag, played with some guy from Palestine and the UK while in Chicago on a European server. Hoping for flying pink walruses in next update.

Used to play it long long time ago, oh the memories. This game is easy to understand but really really hard to master, it takes time but it gets funnier and funnier when you learn cool stuff

UniBall is a great game. It has a diverse and unique community which has supported the game throughout its highs and lows, and NickW has shown clarity and determination to ensure this game continuously develops. From this, I believe the transition to Steam will rightfully bring UniBall into the spotlight, and thus giving the game the popularity it deserves.

This game is very simple - you have a little ship, you can rotate it, and you can hold onto a ball and shoot it. But once you start playing against others, you will find they are dribbling off walls, juking opponents, and making awesome plays. Everyone has the same simple controls, but playing against someone who is good makes you feel like a 10 year old kid up against an NBA pro. Luckily there are always "noob" games available to jump into, and the community is very open to new players. There is something incredibly satisyfing about going head to head with opponents and beating them with creative plays and teamwork.

Fun game to try. Usually only one game going on at any given time. And new players aren't well received in ranked matches (90% of all matches). But it is a great game if you are lucky enough to find some casual players.

This game is amazing and similar to rocket league. Solid mechanic gameplay as the base and iteration based on that. Main gameplay mechanics: -Tons of momentum. You slide everywhere, so skillfull use of brake is huge and prediction of your momentum. -Prediction of the ball bounces off walls. -You slow down if you have the ball. If enemy bumps you, you lose ball. So you have to pass cause you slow down with the ball -Mouse is direction of pass. WASD keys are direction of car. Takes getting used to. Tons of different maps and racing minigames. Amazing game and tons of fun. I'd probably pay up to 5$ for this. Maybe 10$ if the graphics were a bit more updated.

One day in the year 2000 I stumbled across a simple looking game called Uniball and decided to give it a try. Years later, I finally started going to meetings to break the habit. Now Uniball has been revamped and made available on Steam; and I'm enjoying every minute of my relapse! Uniball is a game that can be enjoyed differently at all levels. You'll learn how to play within a minute, but it'll take thousands of hours to come even close to mastering this highly competitive e-sport!
