Big Time Sports, one of two new mobile releases from Frost Pop, offers a refreshing take on sports gaming. This Track & Field-inspired title features a series of microgames, each themed around a different sport like bicycling or weightlifting.
The game's minimalist approach is its strength. Like its spiritual predecessor, Track & Field, Big Time Sports boasts simple controls and straightforward gameplay. Each microgame requires repetitive, easy-to-learn actions for success. While uncomplicated, this simplicity is surprisingly addictive, as fans of Track & Field can attest.
Gameplay is incredibly intuitive. In baseball, for example, you hold and release to pitch and swing. High diving involves holding to spin. By stripping sports simulation to its core mechanics, Big Time Sports delivers a surprisingly engaging mobile experience.
Big Time Sports provides a fascinating contrast to Frost Pop's other recent release, I Am Your Beast by Strange Scaffold. While I Am Your Beast offers intense, hardcore gameplay, Big Time Sports provides casual, accessible fun for even the most casual gamer.
While Big Time Sports might not become a long-term favorite for many, it's a charming and visually appealing entry in a niche genre.
For fans of sports anime, exciting news! A new mobile volleyball simulator based on the popular Haikyu!! series is launching worldwide soon!
