Six Hit
A quick cricket innings: three overs, three wickets. Swing as each delivery reaches the bat for sixes, fours and singles, but miss and you are out.
How to play
- Press the bowl button to face a delivery. The ball rolls down the pitch toward the dashed bat zone.
- Press Swing (or Space) at the moment the ball reaches the bat zone. The closer your timing, the more runs you score.
- Perfect timing gives six, close gives four, then two, then a single. A swing that is far too early or a ball you leave is a wicket.
- The innings is three overs of six balls. It ends sooner if you lose three wickets.
Tips and strategy
- Watch the ball, not the clock. Deliveries come at different speeds, so each one needs fresh timing.
- A scrappy single is better than a wicket. If you are unsure, swing a hair late.
- Later deliveries are a little quicker, so do not get stuck on one rhythm.
- Space or Enter works for both bowling and swinging if you prefer the keyboard.
FAQ
- How are runs worked out?
- By how close your swing is to the exact moment the ball arrives: 6 for the tightest window, then 4, 2 and 1.
- How do I get out?
- By swinging far too early or letting the ball go by without swinging. Three wickets end the innings.
- Is my best score saved?
- Yes, on this device only.
