Possibly one of the reasons why the world of video games is a success is because the great variety of sports is well captured in them, in video games we can find a great variety of sports and virtual reality of them, that's why Baseball balls may not stop existing in this broad and successful world of video games. There is a certain number of players who only play sports content, some of which are aimed at a specific sport, such as football and baseball.

Baseball Star is a baseball videogame distributed by Playus Soft for the Android and iOS platform, the game is clearly oriented to baseball and the ability to make us feel the emotions of the game about that sport, leaving the cards (players) as the main aspect to make the best possible team, although everything is fiction and there are no true baseball players, the animated style gives a lot to talk about.

As far as graphics are concerned, Baseball Star is not oriented to reality, it is clearly aimed at cartoons in a modern style, adapting perfectly all the movements and regulations that are made and met in the field. The funny thing is that although it is not oriented to reality in terms of players and graphics is, if it inherits many things exactly so at the level of graphics does not have to envy those who are oriented to the no animated reality.

Interface.

The graphic interface of Baseball Star lacks dynamics and is a bit complex to understand at the beginning, since it has many divisions to perform the corresponding actions that we want to perform, even if they are clearly related. In spite of being a little badly structured, in it you can appreciate very relevant content that will help you to improve the experience of each game.

Game.

When we talk about the quality of Baseball Star graphics at game level, we are talking about something very close to perfection if we rely on weight / quality since the game is extremely light and fast to download and still has a quality of graphics in the game quite good, in it you can see all the relevant effects that occur in a field of play. The only unfavorable game is that it lacks a bit of climate animation, if you add a little sun or rain that gave a touch of reality, it would be perfect.

Probably the sound is one of the most outstanding features in sports video games, the cries of fans and the good sound of a hit are clear aspects to appreciate in a baseball game. Baseball Star has a series of pretty good sounds if we talk about the sounds of the pitch and movements in the interface. The negative aspect of the sound is the slightly unpleasant voice of the narrator, makes the video game is clearly aimed at young players, for its all smooth which is annoying for many.

Nothing better than a gameplay to understand the sound:

The background music is a very improvable aspect also in Baseball Star, although it is not bad, many users have left comments on this issue in play-store, we just have to wait to see what solution measures are applied by the creators.

The variations with respect to the gameplay in sports video games are quite limited; In the case of baseball, the same game of mechanics and control is almost always used, following a regulation that makes it comfortable and easy to play with different players, obviously many give them a touch of personality but almost never leave the classical structure.

The Baseball Star controls are extremely easy to use. That's weird? Sports video games are easy to play, although everyone uses their own strategy and skill to achieve victories, in the case of Baseball Star the controls are too automatic; basically, it is our duty to hit and throw the ball, leaving everything to chance, the best we can do is to graduate the force with which the ball is thrown.

Bat.

To beat you have to clearly visualize the box that is shown on our screens, on the sides you will find the type of hitting you want to make, on the left a touch of ball is shown, while on the right is a possible stronger hitting, with probability of home runs.

Throw the ball.

To throw the ball a series of options are shown that allow us to make the game manual or automated, in the left part the type of pitching we want to perform is shown, while on the right a circle is shown which if we leave it manual we must adjust the force of the launch, on the other hand if we leave it automatic you just have to press.

cards.

The players in the graphical interface are shown in the form of cards, each with a value that represents them, whether they are C, B, SP, among others, which according to their value become easier or harder to obtain, leaving the common class C. It is necessary to know how to group our cards well to obtain a good team, although the game also has an option that allows you to combine cards to upload them in class, example of which if you combine two classes of C cards, we can obtain a class B.

Mastery.

Baseball Star has a series of masterys that allow us a better gaming experience once per level, the improvements are divided into 3 sections, strength, skill and charisma. The force, as the name says, helps us to have better power in the clubs, in addition to improving the speed of the players. The ability allows us to improve the accuracy of batting and pitching, avoiding mistakes. Charisma allows us to gain more experience and money after each victory, as well as to avoid player fatigue.

Game modes.

Baseball Star has two game modes, which are League and Challenge, as their name says they are quite different types of game in terms of benefit and difficulty. When we play in legue the games usually last only 6 inning, while if we play in challenge it usually goes 9 inning. That is why the result of money and experience at the end of each challenge match is greater than that of league matches.

From my point of view, what makes animated video games so fun are the curious aspects of each character, as well as the different masks that can be applied as we advance in the respective video game, all with the aim of keeping us each time more entertaining . at the level of detail and curiosity. Due to this, Baseball Star has a series of aspects that allow to modify the appearance of the players, although the appearance of the objects that we put to the players directly influences in their way of playing, is usually quite complicated and expensive to obtain, although It is interesting to see how we can vary the appearance of each player, remembering that the visual part is very important to motivate us to keep moving forward.

Items.

What gives the players the greatest benefits are the items, which can give you any feature that we want to improve, they can be bought with money from the video game and also with real money, leaving greater benefits to real money. Seven items can be used at the same time, which are divided into uniform, bat, gloves, goggles, earring, wrist and ankle.

Team item.

In the same way that there are elements that provide benefits to each player per individual, there are also elements that can be acquired by all the players of the team at the same time, in order to maintain the level of the whole team. Team items are divided into uniforms, caps, shoes, bats and gloves.

According to the characteristics that Baseball Star presents, I consider it a videogame for the entire public, since education and cartoons are key factors that describe the game. From my point of view, the game is more aimed at young users, it is enough to test the features it presents to realize that it is the perfect video game to get rid of your nephews in the moments of whining.

My rating for the game is 5/10, taking into account that the game is too automated, it is usually even annoying to play for those users who want to show their skills. The graphics and aspects with positive things, while the controls and sound are not made for those players with high experience in video games.
