Review: Overall ‘CricVRX – VR Cricket’ isn’t the worse VR cricket game I have played and there are things to enjoy here. I liked the commentary and the score animations, but it is little more than a batting mini-game. Sure, you get to play in 6 stadiums here, but they are all low-polygon version of those said stadiums and not noticeably different to each other. The gameplay is OK I suppose and it seems to bat the ball the right way, but there is just no way this game is worth even half of the current £11.39 asking price, especially given the lack of multiplayer options. I would pay a quid or two for it, so do keep an eye out for it as part of a cheap bundle with other games.
