Big Time Sports, a new mobile game from Frost Pop, offers a minimalist approach to sports gaming. Inspired by classic Track & Field games, it features a series of simple, repetitive microgames, each based on a different sport like cycling or weightlifting. The straightforward controls and gameplay, while not complex, prove surprisingly addictive.
Gameplay involves basic actions: holding and releasing to pitch and swing in baseball, holding to spin in high diving, and similar intuitive controls for other sports. The game's stripped-down approach is surprisingly effective, making it a surprisingly enjoyable experience.
Big Time Sports provides a fascinating contrast to Frost Pop's other recent release, I Am Your Beast. While I Am Your Beast offers intense, hardcore gameplay, Big Time Sports provides casual, accessible fun. While not likely to become a long-term favorite, it's a visually appealing and enjoyable take on a niche genre.
For sports fans who also enjoy anime, the upcoming worldwide mobile release of a Haikyu!! volleyball simulator is sure to be exciting news!
