Every now and then a game comes along which is not very interesting at first, but which quickly becomes a daily event as you try to beat your previous score… over and over again.
Flick Cricket is a free game which basically involves you having to hit the ball by flicking your finger; the direction and power are determined by how you flick and it is a rarity in that you genuinely do get better bit by bit over time. I am now at the point where I can regularly get over 100 from only 5 overs, but I am still coming back for more.
One alternative aspect is the ability to play Facebook games, but from what I can see this merely tells other Facebook users that you have completed a game and includes your friends in the line ups for both sides. However, it is a nice touch and I can’t complain too much because it is free and it has given me much enjoyment over the past few weeks, enjoyment that I did not expect and still in some ways don’t understand.
Anyway, all I can say is to give it a try and see what you think. You may well be playing it a lot more than you expect over the next few weeks.
