Why didn't I review this? What is wrong with me? Maybe I took a bodyline shot too many, I onno.

You may not know much about cricket and, honestly, you don't really need to. This is cricket throughout the ages, and frankly, sports mutate over time. Cricket is no exception.

All this flummery aside, it's a goofy ragdoll physics games wrapped in a thin veneer of (mostly) sports, and sometimes (post-apocalyptic or prehistoric) combat. It's kind of random, a bit wacky, and presented utterly deadpan seriously which is part of the humour.

What you need is a buddy to play with who likes (or could use) a good laugh who isn't that worked up about wins and losses. Yes, it's a competitive game, but the prize for winning is getting your head cut off by the Queen... who is controlled by the losing player anyway. Oh sorry, I should have spoilered that.

Anyway, it's a lighthearted bit of fluff, intentionally awkward to control, and you can do Steam's remote play thing to get your buddy in on this. It will take about 2, 3 hours to play once through the game in its entirety. I used it to cheer up a buddy of mine once, when he was down in the dumps, so I think it was very much money well spent.

By the way, if you don't know much about cricket, just try to hit the stick-things at the far end. Doesn't matter what you use. The ball is fine. Your opponent is fine too.

If you got down here and are still paying attention, you're my kind of person. I do some streaming and other things too, so, like, hey, pop on by, come shoot the ♥♥♥♥ while I stream. http://www.twitch.tv/fdejeuner. See you there!
