Nice Catch

"Nice Catch" is a baseball arcade game where you play not as a batter, but as a fielder catching balls after your opponent's hits. The action takes place in the ninth and decisive inning, with only minutes left before the end of the match. The score is tense, and it is unclear who will be the winner. All responsibility rests on your shoulders — it is up to you whether the team wins or loses in these critical moments. Your role is critical: you need to catch the ball after the opponent hits it with the bat, and then return it to the base as quickly as possible before the runner completes the lap and scores a point for the opponent. Your role is critical: you need to catch the ball after the opponent hits it with the bat, and then return it to the base as quickly as possible before the runner completes the lap. The main tool is the power scale located at the bottom of the screen with a green zone in the middle. The accuracy of hitting this mark determines the success of the throw back onto the field. Did you press before or after the green area? The throw will be weak and the ball will not reach the base in time, allowing the opponent to score a point.

How to play?

As soon as the batter hits the ball, it flies into the air somewhere on the field. A white circle appears on the ground, marking the approximate landing spot of the ball. This is your target point. Use the left and right arrows to quickly move the field player to the white circle. Run there while the ball is in the air. Stand exactly on the marked spot and the character will automatically catch the ball as soon as it lands. No additional buttons are required for catching. Immediately after the interception, switch your attention to the power scale at the bottom. The slider starts moving back and forth along it. Wait for the moment when it enters the green zone in the middle of the scale. Did you hit the green area? The player makes a powerful, accurate throw, sending the ball back to the base at maximum speed. There is a chance that it will arrive before the opposing runner reaches the target, tagging him and preventing him from scoring a point. Did you miss the green zone by pressing too early or too late? The throw is sluggish, and the ball flies slowly. The runner manages to reach the base first, and the opposing team scores a point.
