This game is great for a fast fun baseball game. The characters are great and memorable so much so you feel bad not picking them for your team. It’s easy to pick up on the controls and they seem to be accurate. The game makes you feel like a professional game in a playful kids backyard. My only gripe is you can’t transfer a save from your phone to your iPad. That’s why it only got 4/5 and not 5/5. The game is worth $5 and super fun! Enjoy!

Don’t get me wrong love the game and love the backyard sports series but in the newest updates for the game it says there are online tournaments I can’t find those for some reason I play on a iPad and the online tournaments don’t show up would like to see improvement ps for but all in all I just love this game

After playing 10 baseball games on the phone, I can firmly say that this is a wonderful port. There was only one crash I went through during that time, but that was the only hiccup I had. I was worried that I would barely be able to control well, due to it being on a small phone screen, the first game proved my worries wrong. The simple controls translate very well to the phone, and the game itself was already great to begin with!While I will probably get the PC ports from here on out, I am glad that I purchased this game, and I recommend any backyard sports fans to do the same if you’ve never played this version.

This game takes me back. I have a few complaints though. During one game, the pitcher would begin pitching before my batter’s animation was complete. This went on for a whole inning since before I closed the app. Now Pete Wheeler’s run animation is slowed down. I closed the app twice before reopening and no change. He runs slower than expected and what we all expect him to. I’m not talking about when he’s behind a runner and needs to adjust speed. I’m talking about stealing bases and he’s no where near what he was last night. If the game compensates by increasing the difficulty level, I’d like to know that. In a game I was just playing, Kenny reached second during a base hit before Pete reached third. I’m at a loss. Devs, what’s up?

This game is exactly what I was looking for! The game is such a throwback and so well done. My only criticisms are that it would be nice to see the game brought to full screen to utilize the entire screen of the phone, and that sometimes the game crashes and the app shuts down and upon restarting you find that you have to restart the entire game that you were in the middle of playing. I’m sure with a little more polishing. This game can be refined and become even greater. Thank you guys so much for putting out the effort to make this happen and bring it to the mobile platform. I really hope you guys continue developing this further and consider releasing even more titles in the future. Maybe you could release them as add-ons so that we could play different versions released in following years all under the same app? I’m thinking either one backyard sports app with all the different sports and different versions released in subsequent years? I’m sure it will take a lot of time, but…what do you think? I’m just saying, I think it would be amazing. Goodbye death scrolling on social media and HELLOO backyard sports!

UPDATE: increased to the rightful place of 5 stars. The developer made the needed improvements and no more crashing! On my way to winning my league championship! Thanks for listening and responding!! Hope to play against other people one day maybe in 3 inning games!!Original Review: I grew up playing this game and was excited for this to come to mobile. I want to thank the developer for bring a piece of my childhood back for me to enjoy. However for a paid app and having it crash now two times in a row that was in a league game right at the end is very frustrating. There is no auto save so I will need to play the same league game a third time. I know this game just came out but please get these bugs fixed. I hope to increase my rating one day soon.
