It's the bottom of the ninth inning. The game is tied. It's down to the home team to score one run to win it all. Unfortunately, the home team is staring down the league's best closer.
A dice and card game for two players, Bottom of the 9th brings all the excitement of the final three outs of a baseball game into a compact 5-20 minute game session. With variable player strengths, bluffing/deduction, and die-rolling, only the pitcher knows what's coming and the batter needs to keep his eyes peeled. Bottom of the 9th is played over the course of three outs, or four hits (for one run scored) — whichever occurs first.
Bottom of the 9th includes tons of variable player powers, myriad customizable line-ups, the possibility of two added expansion packs, and rules for advanced league and solo play to keep gamers wanting to play ball time and time again.
First of all, I love the components. The little meeples are really cool, plus the little piece of gum to keep track of the pitcher's count. The game is quick if playing the bottom of the 9th variant but can drag on if playing any more than three innings. Home runs don't happen often but when they do it's a pretty cool feeling.
This has to be one of the most thematic small box games out there! Fantastic component design and a great vibe all throughout. The game play is fairly simple and quick but really brings the theme to life. An excellent light filler game for two players.
