Doodle Bowling 4+

The only issue I have is with the new sounds. I loved the simplistic sound effects that were used years ago. Paper flipping, drum sets, and a rock organ. Not this weird, bubbly, flash-game soundboard that hardly fits any maps. I don’t know if others feel this way, but it would be awesome if there were sound effect customizations similar to the maps; earn stars to change sound effects, bowling balls, pins, etc.

I've been playing this game for somewhere around 4 years. This last update brought a big and very welcomed improvement to the physics of the game. The additional lanes are also a pleasant addition. The change to the "star" system to purchase additional lanes is a neutral change for me.

Found bugs: If you hit "play again" before all the stars collect at the end of the game they don't get counted and "get stuck" above the frame, uncollected. Next, if you throw a low speed roll the ball will sometimes bounce back up the lane. The lane doesn't time out and reset if this happens and you're stuck, having to restart the game. Next, on some lanes the ball may bounce off into the gutter after a strike. Then this happens it scores a strike but you do not get the extra star for a strike. Finally, while the physics are vastly improved, you still sometime have an occurrence where a pin begins to tip over but the frame resets for the second shot and the pin is reset, not counted on the first shot. No biggie

All in all still my favorite game app and the update was a big improvement.

The latest update gives Doodle Bowling a nice new UI and quite a few new lanes to purchase.

Although ads were introduced, it shouldn't be a big deal since you can easily remove them with a one time IAP. Even without that the ads are not too intrusive.

They have also included a watch video to earn 30 pts feature. Although I'm not thrilled with this, you'll still gain much more points from your average game so it's not a progress-breaker.
