Epic Baseball description
Last, the fifth baseball game of MicroLeague Interactive Software.
Title screen. Players take the field. A good hit to the right is caught. Here's the pitch!
This time on the field, we only look, and all the decisions you make as a Manager. They, by the way, not so much: choose team composition and formation, give tactical instructions during the match, but no transfers and sporty financial hassles. It is not good. Although, of course, you can edit the teams and even the League itself in some modes, but it's still not the same. The bet is placed on the visualization of what is happening, and for good reason.
Babe Ruth delivers a smashing hit! Home runs aren't as exciting as you'd hope in this game.
Yes, we show the entire field and all players at once, they move and do something, but the picture is irretrievably behind of their time - the same Tony La Russa Baseball 3 looks head and shoulders better and no sparkles excessive pixelation. And justification in the spirit of “they have the same simulator, and then managerial strategy!” will not do, because of how there is a deep managerial component, said the paragraph above. And maybe the fact that the game was released as shareware? Also will not go, because at that time, many great games first spread according to a model.
Final scores. The game's boxscore. Pre-game options menu.
In General, the pass has turned out very entertainment, which stand out especially and nothing. Only for collectors of games for this sport.
