Mar 11, 2024Simple though it is, Cricket Through the Ages won me over with its stupendously silly gameplay and its commitment to telling a daft, nonsensical story about humanity’s obsession with throwing balls and whacking each other with big sticks. You’re not likely to spend a long time playing it—it took me about two hours to complete all eight game modes—but it is fun while it lasts. I’d recommend grabbing a buddy and playing a two player game, as walloping a friend over the head with a cricket bat never gets old.

Mar 7, 2024Cricket Through the Ages is a simple game, played using just one button, that works best for two players who are ready to have some dumb fun for about half an hour. Any longer than that and it becomes clear how limited and repetitive it all really is. Play against the computer and all the silliness isn’t worth very much. The developers understand how to make awkward physics work, but the game really needs more variety in terms of equipment and conditions. Cricket Through the Ages will draw some laughs but is best enjoyed in short bursts before its repetitive mechanic becomes frustrating.

Mar 5, 2024As I said I don’t know what cricket is, and to be honest this game helped me expand my knowledge of the sport. Knowing things like the fact the Queen got involved at one point and demanded a rule change about it being boring to try and hit the goal post. And they even took cricket to outer space and would play in zero gravity. It was fascinating to see how much the game of cricket has intertwined with human history. While Cricket thru the Ages isn’t a long game, it is quite a fun one, made even more so if players can find a player 2. And with its simple one button controls literally anyone can play.
