About Indoor Baseball

Indoor Baseball is a chaotic 1v1 arcade baseball game developed by Snow Day Software, released March 31 2026. It follows their previous hit Indoor Kickball but swaps the ball for a baseball and the backyard for house interiors. Play in couch co-op split-screen matches or take on the CPU in single-player. The story mode tasks you with climbing the ranks to join a school team, while a 14-game season mode offers randomized challenges. It’s a goofy, fast-paced romp with over-the-top physics and destructible environments. Perfect if you love local multiplayer and don’t mind a game that’s equal parts skill and absurdity.

Gameplay

You’ll spend most sessions swinging a bat indoors, aiming to hit through walls, furniture, and opponents’ defenses. The split-screen mode dominates, with two players battling in real time. Each inning feels frantic as you dodge pitches and swing wildly. The story mode leans into light RPG elements, leveling up stats to unlock better gear. The 14-game season is procedurally generated, mixing up objectives like stealing bases or hitting home runs through windows. Controls are responsive, with a focus on timing and positioning. Matches rarely last more than 10 minutes, making it ideal for quick bursts of chaotic fun.

What Players Think

PlayPile users rate Indoor Baseball 4.7/5, with 68% completing the story mode. Average playtime is 10 hours, though 35% of players report under 5 hours due to the short campaign. The mood breakdown shows 65% “Chaotic,” 58% “Nostalgic,” and 42% “Replayable.” Critics praise the “wildly fun physics” but note the “shallow progression.” A Steam review calls it “the best 2-player party game of the year.” Achievement completion sits at 78%, with the hardest being a near-impossible “No-Hitter in Story Mode” challenge.

PlayPile's Take

Indoor Baseball is a $29.99 splurge for split-screen fans but feels short for solo play. It shines in multiplayer, where its absurd physics and 1v1 rivalry hit just right. The story mode lacks depth, but the random season mode adds longevity. If you own it for the local co-op and don’t mind a 10-hour experience, it’s worth it. For solo players, skip unless you’re a completionist, the 22 achievements are grindy but unlockable. A must-have for party game collectors, but not a long-term obsession.
