Prepare to experience a blast from the past, millennials! For the first time ever, the original game from the Backyard Baseball series, Backyard Baseball ’97, is now available on mobile devices.
The game is available for $4.99 on both iOS and Android devices.
Lindsay Barnett, CEO of Playground Productions, finds it incredibly strange yet charming to play ‘Backyard Baseball ’97’ on a device that wasn’t around back in 1997. Using a mobile device to play evokes a warm, nostalgic feeling for me and other millennials.
In its mobile version, this game offers all the familiar elements found in the classic edition, tailored for smooth and intuitive touch-screen control. Additionally, it enables players to enjoy uninterrupted gaming sessions without needing an active internet connection once the game has been downloaded.
You can check out the full list of game features and modes, below:
- Random Pick-up: A quick way to jump right in! The computer chooses a random team for you and itself, and the game starts immediately.
- Single Game: You take turns with the computer, choosing players from a random pool of characters.
- Season: You create a team and manage the team through a 14 game series. The opposing teams are computer generated. At the end of the season the best two teams advance to the BBL playoffs (best of 3). The playoffs winner advances to the championship series which consists of the Super Entire Nation Tournament (best of 3) and then the Ultra Grand Championship of the Universe Series (best of 5)!
