Don Bradman Cricket 14

Don Bradman Cricket 14 is an advanced cricket simulation, prepared by Australian Big Ant studio, authors of such games as AFL Live or Rugby League Live. Since Ross Symons himself, the studio's president, is one of the supporters of cricket, thanks to his involvement in the production of the game, players received the most faithful and extensive electronic simulations of this discipline.

Mechanics

Don Bradman Cricket 14 allows for the first time in history to play a full career mode, in which we will lead the character created by us for 20 years, gaining experience and paving the way for him to the national team. As a team manager, we will be responsible for training, transfers, engagement, and dismissal of staff, as well as playing or simulating the results of the matches.

The game offers us all current teams taking part in the tournament and all official variations of the discipline, such as test, one-day and Twenty20 matches. Each player is described with numerous stats, and features such as endurance, fatigue, trauma or current form will have a huge impact on his behavior and ability to play.

Technical aspects

The game's graphics design looks decent. The game has a daily cycle imitating the movement of the sun, thanks to which we can observe, among other things, dynamically changing lighting, shadows and cloud effects. A specially designed system of throws and bounces also adds to the realism of the gameplay. The game features over 40 hours of professional commentary.

A cross-platform editor of players and teams has been added to the game, allowing to share the results of their work regardless of their platform. Don Bradman Cricket 14 has a special system which allows you to make saves during the match, which, given the extremely long duration of cricket matches, allows you to play online for the first time in history.
