What are folk currently swiping and tapping away at on their Androids and Apples?
I'll start with Big Bash Cricket, which looks great and features the real men's and women's teams from Australia's Big Bash T20 league. It's a very simple, swipe-to-hit kind of game. However after not-so-long the flaws will bother you. The middle difficulty is far too easy (you'll win the tournament the first time you try, I reckon) but hard is ridiculous. This is because you can't tell soon enough whether it will be a fast or slow paced delivery. Swing early on a slow one and you'll be LBW; swing late on a fast one and you'll be bowled. And the computer batters will always smash you to the boundary. The bowling controls are quite pleasing though; you drag a marker to where you want your line and length, then swipe at the right time for speed and swing.
