Manage and Build Your Team in Bitball Baseball's Low-Res Simulator

Ah, baseball. The vicious swing of the bat, the crack of wood meeting leather, and the scent of deliciously questionable hotdogs. Is there anything more American than the baseball diamond? As a Brit, I wouldn't know, but I can certainly appreciate the appeal of managing a team in the major leagues, and Bitball Baseball lets you do just that.

Don't expect high-resolution, unreal textures from this game, though. Bitball Baseball is an upcoming super low-res baseball simulator, rendered on a charmingly small scale. You'll get a view of the entire field, filled with a horde of pixelated fans, as your players take on rival teams, racing for the base after every hit.

In terms of features, Bitball Baseball offers everything you might want from a fantasy sports simulator. Manage your own team, hire players, and build a world-beating stadium. Trade players, customize your team and lineup, and grow a dedicated fanbase (or exploit them with ticket prices). Enjoy the game for free, or opt for the premium version to create your own custom team and players, complete with personalized names and appearances.

**Take me out to the ballgame** Yes, baseball simulators might not be as popular as football or American football franchises, but there's no denying the universal appeal of this sport. I also appreciate the transparency of developers Duckfoot Games, who clearly outline what comes in both the free and premium versions of their release, even on the storefront!

You can check out Bitball Baseball when it's expected to release on March 12th, just a few weeks away! Be sure to pre-register on Android or iOS and get ready to hit the ball out of the park.
