Basically a version of Statis Pro Baseball. It is fairly simple, but probably a solid play for those that don't want/need a hyper detailed baseball sim.
The problem is that the price point is ridiculous. With similiar/better games avaialable online for free or very inexpensively, the $60 cost is completely absurd.
You can find the same basic game(s) available for free download at sites like www.tabletop-sports.com.
If it was free, I would probably give a solid rating, but anyone purchasing it at this price isn't going to get their money's worth. If this game was around 20 years ago before the Internet, the rating might change.
An interesting game that has a nice pitcher control system similar to the Statis-Pro Baseball model. Dominant pitchers (control grade seems in line with Earned Run Average) can really make a big impression on a game! Excellent quality components and the cards are easy to handle and have plenty of information. Bought this game when it was on sale and didn't have any real expectations of it but it has won me over! Nice selection of seasons available as well. My only negative is that the rule book should be updated from its original content as it was a mildly bit confusing to know which rule changes trumped previously written ones. The designer is very helpful when it came to any questions about the game and his customer service is excellent! Highly recommended!
Very enjoyable game. Dice rolling is a minimum and the game flows quickly in under an hour.

Well, it says what it is: DICE baseball. A fun Statis-Pro variant, but after a few dozen games I got burnt out on the copious amounts of die-rolling required to finish a game.
Yes, the printed version does cost $60 for the game and one season. By comparison, Replay Baseball will cost $85 to $101 for the game parts and the 2009 season. Strat-o-matic costs more than $60 for the game parts and 2009 season with extra players.
Finally, there is a print and play version of dice baseball available for $14.95 and seasons cost $5 or less.
I played DICE Baseball a long while back when it was called Statis Pro Baseball, and I must admit, i is very involved, and fun to play. you can play quick play mode, or go all out and play basically a real season. You would swear that you were in the dugout with this game and even on the field. DICE Baseball is quality at its best, and the company is top notch with customer service. They will help you with any need you have in the playing of their DICE Products.
