I don’t normally rate apps but couldn’t bypass this one. I’ve recently started playing tennis; it’s one of my new favorite sports; the most elegant yet complicated game out there. It’s taught me a lot, believe it or not. The timing/positioning of my swing, shot placement/subsequent positioning, getting a feel for the rhythm and tendencies/patterns of the opponent. An app/game that other iOS games should model in terms of design/execution. A perfect balance between style(graphics, sounds)/substance (game play). It’s like surfing, it’s a game that only works if one is truly In the Zone, even if it’s a game app. Only recommendations are the sets being best of 3/best of 5 and the ability to be hit out of bounds (not sure if that’s already possible, haven’t seen it yet), along with the ability to challenge- which is the best challenge system in all of sports. Otherwise, Well done!!!

For those of you out there who think the game’s AI is too easy, take a second thought. Go to settings and toggle manual movement and I dare you to win 3 games in Legendary mode. I myself could win Roger, Novak, and Rafael 6-0 at Legendary level, but so far could not win even 1 game when the movement is toggled to manual. Try it for yourself. Other than that, this game is the absolute best of its kind. The motion and movement of players are so smooth and realistic. There are many ways you can work out your strategies to win your opponent, and along with that many ways to hit the ball back. Ground stroke, volley, lob, you name it. You can do about anything in here. The graphics is amazing too! A+ for the developers, and A++ for making this game absolutely free to everyone. Keep it up guys!

Other players think the AI is too easy I havebeen playing tourneys is legend mode with auto settings and its very hard to win matches. I finally just won my first match and cant wait to win my first tourney. I used to play Ultimate Tennis but then it got weird and you cant beat the people who buy everything. I was a high ranked player but then everyone who paid for their stuff beat me every point. AO Tennis is AWESOME!!!!!! Thanks guys!
