With a little bit more polish this could have been a home run, but as it is, it slides safely into first base. [Feb 2016, p.87]

Although Baseball Riot has its fun moments and I could probably see myself playing it when I have nothing else to do sitting in a Doctor’s office, it’s not something I would sit down to play at home. Anyone sinking money into this title for their console might regret that decision and wish they had tossed a few bucks on it in the app store instead.

My only complaint would be that this game still feels like a mobile phone title and doesn't really do anything special to make it stand out on consoles.

This game is good! I really don't get the hate for this game. While yes, this is basically a mobile game put on a game console, it is a really GOOD game at that. Fun to play for a little bit if you have nothing else to play

Baseball Riot contains a lot of content for a low price point, but it will only really be enjoyed in short bursts. The gameplay is easy to learn but difficult to master.

Despite its limitations and the somewhat painful sense of déjà vu that it will inevitably inspire in anyone familiar with Tennis in the Face, Baseball Riot nonetheless remains an entertaining, addictive and incredibly well made experience.

Baseball Riot could've done more with its gameplay to stretch its wings and not try to be another Angry Birds. Instead, it just doesn't do enough, and only hardcore baseball fans – or those seeking out an interesting but flawed puzzle game – will want to invest. Everyone else can easily look elsewhere to take their batting practice.

More than anything, it's the crushing lack of originally that really does let down Baseball Riot.
