    Baseball Riot is a great physics puzzler and with a 5 dollar price tag on the Nintendo store it could be a great little title for rainy afternoons or the morning commute. However if you tend to lean towards your phone for those times this title might be better off left in the dugout.

    This is a fun little puzzle game that’s easy to pick up and easy to get addicted to.

    While Baseball Riot has a simple, quirky, challenging and meaty campaign, there is a real sense of deja vu. The art style and core mechanics are virtually the same as its prequel, and although it is aesthetically vivid and satisfying to beat a difficult stage or line up a perfect shot to obliterate a row of nasty foes, the grind you go through to beat it might deplete that addictive nature that puzzle games such as this strive for. All in all, the game ends up being a solid, but often frustrating and wholly unoriginal experience.

    Its physics system is worthy of praise and the visual environment fits well within the game but after a while, Baseball Riot becomes too repetitive and the game features nothing that makes it really unique or that sets it apart from other like-minded games.

    Baseball Riot is a textbook puzzle game that struggles to add anything to the core ideas, a fun setting and plenty of levels don't really hide that this game is relatively uninspired. It's by no means bad but can be hard to recommend to everyone.
