Speaking of players there is a trading card book where you can learn more about the different players.īackyard Baseball 2001 also had an online mode and I am sure there is someone out there who has a server that allows you to play this online. If you do well here your players can be in the Hall of Fame. Here you will take your ragtag group of kids on a quest to win different championships. You also have Season Play which is Backyard Baseball 2001’s main game mode.

It is a great way to learn the basics of the game. You can change innings, errors pick your stadium and so on. This mode lets you change the difficulty level from tee-ball all the way to hard. Backyard Baseball allows you to play a single game. Backyard Baseball 2001 is enjoyable, but far too easy for adults, so, you would better get it for your little sister, brother or other young relatives.The game modes are exactly what you would expect from a game in the Backyard Sports series. No complaints about the graphics area, neither, since the environment is colourful and pleasant to watch. You will also find funny the way they chat. The kids are taunting about their abilities to play, and this fact brings a good humour. The sounds are great, and there is always fun to listen the characters, the commentators, the cheering crowds and the general ambiance. Speaking of teams, you have 30 characters to choose from.

You can make the game challenging by setting the difficulty to a hard one, and make it fun by combining teams. There is no plot, you just create teams and try to gain high scores and win.

If the characters are placed in the right spot, they will automatically catch the ball. The game works smoothly, and you can simply control the action with the mouse (to run, throw or swing in the place you want to) and with space button in order to pause it. I found this game as the perfect game for children, mostly because of the authentic animations and the simple menu presented. Backyard Baseball 2001 is a sports game published and developed by Humongous Entertainment, a company owned by Atari.
