Stickiness (DAU / MAU)
how many monthly users open it on a given day
How this is calculated
Monthly users come from lifetime installs across every store, fitted on monthly active user figures companies publish; daily users = monthly × the typical daily/monthly ratio for the category. Confidence is the chance the real number is within half to double ours.

Review momentum (0-100) blends how fast the app collects ratings compared with other apps in its category (60%), whether that pace is speeding up (25%) and what recent raters give it (15%; recent stars well below lifetime pull it down). Ratings counts are read daily. A jump usually means a launch, a feature, ads or a new review prompt.

THE GOAT
Backyard Basketball featured arguably the most iconic video game athlete of the 90s or any era - Pablo Sanchez. Play with the legend himself or choose your favorites and relive what made Backyard Basketball 2001 an award-winning classic.
Game Modes include:
Pick-up Game: Instant play! The computer chooses a random team for you and itself and the game starts immediately.
Season Play: Pick your team name, uniform colors, and players to compete in the Backyard Basketball League. Manage the team through a basketball season for your chance to win the Championship!
We’re talking about practice! Hone those basketball skills while getting a feel for every court in practice mode! Then, it’s game time! Play a Pick-up Game or a Full Season with your favorite players.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
At our core, we are fans first – not just of video games, but of the Backyard Sports franchise. Fans have asked for accessible and legal ways to play their original Backyard titles for years, and we are excited to deliver.
Without having access to the source code, there are hard limitations on the experience we can create. Backyard Basketball ‘01 runs well and looks better than ever for iOS devices and creates a new installation for digital preservation within the Backyard Sports catalog that allows the next generation of fans to fall in love with the game.
Making a return to Backyard Basketball is Lisa Leslie!
