I am 32 years old. My ex-wife and I have a daughter together, and we adopted our son together. Both are now 4 years old. When we were going through our separation, I felt lost and unhappy. I was self-destructive. One day, I was so angry with everything spiraling out of control that I punched a concrete wall in a moment of overwhelming emotion. This resulted in breaking my fifth metacarpal in my right hand—the hand I worked with, played games with, and used to carry my children to bed—the hand I desperately needed to ensure I could continue providing. Upon learning the severity of the self-inflicted damage, I became almost suicidal. Keep in mind that just a few months before this, I was the happiest man, with no history of depression or anxiety. I had never experienced anger outbursts, nor was I the type to break down and cry, but I was in a tough situation that truly prevented me from seeing the light on the other side. With nothing better to do, I looked for a game I could play WITH ONE HAND while recovering. Somehow, I stumbled upon this game and read some of the comments. I decided it was worth a try... I must admit I didn't beat the game, nor did I play as much as some of y…2 found this helpful
Awesome dice-rolling baseball game. Difficult for the home team but I guess that's the point of it. Worth getting into if you take the time to read and understand how the mechanics work and how batters and pitchers traits and MVP bonuses/perks work. Good, quick fun. You'll say to yourself, "I can't be mad at this game, it's all dice rolls," and then when you completely whiff a few easy dice rolls, you'll be scream at the game. Again, this is part of the fun. This game is not for everyone though, but it's for stat nerds, baseball nerds, and tabletop nerds. It is also fun when after you play for a while and notice some players pitching or hitting worse than others, you start make up your own little stories and histories for the players. (Whitney Worldwise, after hitting an incredible game-winning Grand Slam...totally has the yips now :(2 found this helpful
Quick and fun dice game for two. A good-looking digital adaptation with a weird menu, and some technical issues (we experienced a multiplayer desync early on, but only once). Buy with a friend.
Would be cool to see more video game board games in the future!
Cool Game. True Fullscreen mode tho (Not just maximize), plz?
