[edit] Game play

Graham Gooch's Test Cricket has two modes of play, arcade and simulation.

  • Arcade mode is for one player where the player picks the type of match and the players. During the match the player controls the action. When batting the player can move the batsman around the crease and choose the shot to play. Timing is important to performing the shot successfully.
  • Simulation mode is where the player can make tactical decisions but the actual play is done by the computer. The player can only watch the game, and make decisions on how his team plays.

[edit] Reviews and criticism

At the time of release, Graham Gooch's Test Cricket was considered the most accurate cricket game out by reviewers[1], It received high scores for gameplay and graphics but lower scores for the sound, which is because it consisted of basic and few sound effects.
