Howzat Multiplayer BBG is Glitch Free But Lacks in Social Networking
Like India’s Cricket T20 Fever, Howzat is another browser-based cricket game. Howzat is a straightforward game and is purely multiplayer, i.e., you can’t play against the computer (although you can play in practice mode). The game doesn’t seem very innovative — although it performs fairly well — and doesn’t feature much social networking and interaction, even though it is recognized as a “social” game.
In Howzat, gamers play in cricket matches to earn experience points, which can be used to upgrade teams. The two skills that each player starts off with are batting and bowling… simple enough. Players can select whether they want their avatar to be left or right-handed… again, pretty straightforward.
One of the seemingly few social aspects of the the game is that players can invite their friends to play (they also earn points by doing this). Players can also share their teams on Facebook. Howzat also features leaderboards, forums, and social communities, which are pretty standard of social networking games.
