I play this app because it is mindless and passes the time. However, it doesn’t behave like real bowling at all. You can throw it right down the middle and somehow leave 8 pins. It should actually have pin reaction like real bowling.

I originally downloaded this game for my son about a year or so ago. You could at least play with a few ball choices and a bowling alley with the option to rack up golden pins and unlock new content. Just re-downloaded it today and was furious to find out that you can’t even play unless you unlock Mouse Steer in the settings which costs you 5,000 Golden Pins. Obviously, you have none at the beginning of a game so you have to buy them. This is absolutely despicable. There is a special place in hell for developers that do this. Especially when they’ve developed a game that they know is going to be fun and relatively easy, therefore geared towards little kids.

I installed this game well over a year ago, never had a problem except what to do with all the Golden Pins, I have over 576,000 of them and have no need for them. Have had multiple 300 games and one game were all four players scored 300. The game is easy if you know how to play the boards.

Game is basically a grind for people who have the time to do nothing and wants to past the time, it says a “wide range of bowling balls” but there is no store for bowling balls, unless by “wide range” it means that when you purchase a bowling alley, you receive a ball to use only on that alley, there is no inventory option, if it didn’t lie to me, I’d give it a 3 for effort, but it has lied, so I will be giving it a 1
