Our take on Balls! Virtual Reality Cricket
The bounce point arrives at the crease: players must read changing pace, line and length while using Vive controllers as the bat. Those seeking team management, field placement or a broader match structure will find the experience stops at repeated batting attempts and score comparison.
What is Balls! Virtual Reality Cricket?
This HTC Vive cricket game places the player at the batting crease against seam and spin bowlers.
Bowling choices range from slow and medium pace to fast medium, fast, off spin and leg spin, with changes in speed, line and length. Three difficulty settings—Village, County and International—provide different challenge levels. Players use Vive hand controllers as a cricket bat and can select left- or right-handed play. A digital scoreboard records current results, while an honours board displays the highest scores. Friends can take turns competing for scores, with a separate spectator view showing bowling speed, strike rate and team total. Crowd sounds react to batting outcomes.
