ULTIMATE BASEBALL THE GAME

I asked the game creator to give me a non-marketing view of his game.  And he delivered. (pdf).  On pages 2-3 of his 15 page response(!), he talks about “Gamer-led strategizing”, which is a fantastic feature to consider.  I’ve never heard about it being offered in such detail.

Anyway, he’s offering a couple of free trials to me, but I declined, and instead, I will forward that offer to two Straight Arrow readers.  This is how you qualify:
1. email me at tom~tangotiger~net
2. be prepared to play this game for several hours, if not dozens of hours
3. be prepared to write a review of this, that I will post to my blog; I want you to be fair, and honest, and review from the perspective of what kind of person would enjoy this game (rather than if YOU enjoyed it or not)

Anyway, I love how much and how detailed he wrote me, easily the longest email response I have ever received on any subject. 

UPDATE: Offer has been closed!  I got a bunch of emails, so, I’m going to pick out two semi-randomly.  I’ll send an email out tonight.
