Cricket Through the Ages is not what you'd expect. It is definitely not a highly detailed Cricket simulator. If you're a fan of old flash games, then this game was made for you.
WTMG's Oliver Shellding: "There’s nothing wrong with having a fun time for the sake of itself, and Cricket Through the Ages is classic and proud in this position. Go ahead and learn things wrong. Build quantum computers with a hammer. Drink beer better than your fellow football hooligan. Knock down a wicket with a bow and arrow. Deliver a killer bowl as a T-Rex. It’s all possible here, and it’s as fun to watch as it is to play. Don’t ask for a deeper meaning or an unlockable secret ending: just go play cricket, or whatever the hell this is."
VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Cricket Through the Ages benefits from a wacky premise, ironic presentation, and a subversive sense of humor. Regrettably, due to its simple controls, unreliable physics, and flailing gameplay, it's not all that enjoyable as a video game. With the right friend along for the ride, you should be able to steal a few minutes of laughter, as your characters face plant into a bowling ball or cricket bat. But after the initial zaniness subsides, you'll be left with an experience too frivolous and clumsy for its own good."
"The Austin-based (Texas) indie games publisher Devolver Digital and Cape Town-based (South Africa) indie games developer Free Lives, are today very happy and excited to announce that their sports-themed action game “Cricket Through the Ages“, is now available for PC (via Steam) and the Nintendo Switch (via the Nintendo Eshop)." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
