I got a lot more of a simulation than I could have imagined.

Play MagazineHome Run King's secret lies in its easy to assimilate control mechanism and killer visuals. [April 2002, p.59]
-
A game with fundamental flaws that limit its appeal to both the casual player and the ardent baseball guru.
-
At the very least, this is nowhere near the zany, offbeat baseball game ads promise.
-
Fast at points, tedious others, with a clear emphasis on batting, but no way to really direct one's hit angle or power.
-
The gameplay is easy to grasp, but while good for some short-term fun, it ultimately falls short.
-
An unwieldy pitching system and terrible fielding result in a twin killing for those expecting to connect with a fast-paced baseball game.
