This game didn’t give me a heightened understanding of the rules or actual history of cricket, but rather an understanding of its most dedicated fandom. The Future of Franchise Mode is on Nintendo Switch.It’s Release Season But All I Want To Do Is Play This Switch Mobile Port.No, this isn’t an accurate facsimile of cricket, but rather a retelling of the world where cricket is everything and everything is cricket. You don’t need to have this appreciation for cricket to enjoy Cricket Through the Ages, but the game is clearly the product of people who believe the earth revolves around the sport.Ĭricket Through the Ages tells the not-completely-accurate history of cricket, from cavemen avoiding dinosaurs and Dark Ages horseback fights to a hyper dystopian future where we’ll carve each other up with light sabers for sport.

All very authentic names for the sport and that authenticity extends to Cricket Through the Ages, one of the charming, under-the-radar offerings made extremely easy to check out thanks to Apple’s ridiculously valuable (for the consumer, at least) Arcade service.
