Idle Baseball Manager Tycoon 4+

TOP Tycoon game but…

This game is tons of fun to start with. The team dynamic where you can level the players up and upgrade your stadium is exactly what I love out of a tycoon game. Along with the expected features of a tycoon game, this app goes above and beyond by actually simulating a baseball game inside the tycoon experience with unique actions every hit depending on player levels.

My only complaint with the app (probably cuz I’m a baseball player myself so I’m too picky) is a lot of the runners on my team don’t know when to stop running. There are times they beat out a nice ball to 1st base, but if the ball dribbles a centimeter over the foul line they try to swipe second base only to meet a dismal end. Same with balls that dribble right in front or behind second base.

This really being my only complaint, albeit a frustrating one, displays why this game is so highly rated, and with a quick fix in the game play mechanics this game as said in other reviews, could be a top game in the App Store.

Players play like they’re drunk

This is like someone watched baseball once and decided to make a game. Players make crazy decisions like trying to stretch infield hits into doubles or trying to steal when they’re right next to an infielder with the ball. You’re just as likely to get the other team out because of their stupid base running. You save for hours to get a rare player and it seems like it’s always a duplicate (or “dublicate,” as they call it). You have no control over the players, you just have to watch them stumbling around, running into outs. You have to finish first in your league to get promoted, and the clinching game is suspiciously hard to win. After winning three out of four games, I’ve restarted over twenty times trying to win the final game and can’t do it. I’m able to win three out of four but then can’t score a single run in 20 attempts? Imagine the odds on that! Be prepared to watch hours of ads if you want to win any games. No idea how this got 4.6 stars. The reviewers are like, “players keep getting thrown out for no reason. Five stars!” On top of all that, the economics don’t make sense. In most games like this, it pays to upgrade your infrastructure. In this game, I buy new stores, upgrade tiers, but it never seems like a good return on investment. I wish I had more hands so I could give this four thumbs down!

Pretty Lacking

It’s crazy that this is the same team that made Golf Club Tycoon because that game is perfect. So much customization in that game, loads of different things to purchase and make money from. Golfers you get to train and sent to events. This baseball game is so barebones is tragic. There’s literally nothing to upgrade but the stadium itself and the upgrades cost a ridiculous amount of money and barely gain you any money. The vendors are a job. Costing Somtimes millions to buy yet only earn hundreds of coins. This game is 100% dependent on you watching a x3 add to gain money from being away from the game. Atleast in Golf Club you actually could be in the game and see yourself warning money. Not to mention the baseball mechanics are god awful. Players never know when to stop running and always get throw out. And in the flip side an opposing player can run freely around the bases a lot of the time because your infielders act like they have no idea how to throw, oh and only certain defenders really ever do anything, a ball can be hit directly at the SS and he’ll just stand there on the bag and the pitcher or 2nd baseman will have to run over and grab the ball while the runner just gets easy bases. This game is absolutely putrid compared to some of the studios other titles.
