Developed and released by Niantic, Inc, “NBA All-World” bridges virtual basketball and real life. From the makers of the biggest Pokemon mobile game “Pokemon Go” and numerous others, NBA All-World allows you to look at the world with a whole new lens. Walk around your local area, capture different professional NBA players, get them equipment and training, expand your roster, and even compete against other players. 

The objective of the NBA All-World is quite simple, players look around using the app and sign different players that pop up. The NBA players that pop up are entirely random, but the higher your level gets, the odds of signing better players rise. The concept is similar to Pokemon GO except for its NBA stars instead of Pokemon. Play in different tournaments, compete for the title of the best and make new interactions along the way.

NBA All-World is perhaps one of the best games available on the App Store and Play Store. We prepared a little guide offering the best tips and tricks to help you optimize your gaming experience and allow you to reach the top.

Getting Started

Upon opening the game, players go through a basic tutorial of how the matches occur. The gameplay isn’t quite complicated and usually involves a few taps and swipes for both the offence and defence. These games are usually 1v1s between the two users and their best players. 

Once the game’s tutorial is finished, there are 6 menus available to you:

• The Shop
• My Team
• Arena Tournaments
• My Bag
• Campfire
• Settings

The Shop

In the shop menu, players can buy boosters, upgrades on equipment, power-ups, and even energy packs for the roster. Much like any other shop menu, the purpose here is to get resources that allow your team to perform better than the others. Most users will have similar players, especially in the lower levels, so having shoes that give more boosts or power-ups that allow you to have the edge in a match makes all the difference. 

The energy packs lets you re-energize the players after each game; otherwise, the players lose their ability to perform at a high level. Hence it is key to ensure that your team is always energized and ready to go.

My Team

In the My Team option, players can check the different NBA players on their roster. Users can decide to keep or release players, as they can sign only a limited number of players. The stats of each player are available in the My Team option along with the equipped items, which are interchangeable. The users can even browse through all the obtainable players and the ones they already have to keep an eye out for any of their favourite ones.

Arena Tournaments

In the Arena tournaments, players can compete against their local competition and test their skills against the best. These arena tournaments are time-based and thus are open for certain periods during the day. Most of these Arena Tournaments in the early levels are free and easy to access. However, as bigger and bigger tournaments become available, players need to use credits to unlock them. The rewards at the Arena Tournaments are massive and could improve your team dramatically, but the competition is also quite tough and to come out on top, players need to go around and find strong NBA players to compete for them.

My Bag

In the Bag Menu, players can manage their inventory, which means all the items that boosters they possess. The standard inventory space at the start for all players is 100 items, but as players level up, they can choose to increase the size of their inventory as they see fit. 

Campfire

The campfire menu is the chat space of the game. Players can go into the campfire menu and talk to other players globally. They can choose to talk in public chats or even have private conversations. The campfire option is an easy way to communicate with other players and even seek advice or discussions. Since there is a lot that basketball fans can discuss aside from the video game, the campfire menu is a really popular spot for discussions about basketball.

Conclusion

All in all, NBA All-World is truly one of the best mobile gaming experiences. Cool and immersive visual designs and gameplay. It is quite evident that the developers have put a lot of time and energy into making this game. 

NBA All-World is a game that takes the best of two worlds and tries to blend them. So, on the one hand, we have people who love the sport of basketball, and on the other hand, we have people who love video games. Niantic, Inc has done a fantastic job executing the game, and the premise was interesting. So go ahead, take over your locality, and prepare the best NBA roster possible.
