Bowling Islands

The ball turns randomly and makes it Hard to get the pins and that Spinney things it’s too big, and it gets too hard that’s a really hard in other bowling games and there’s always five instead of 10 frames and I don’t like it if they’re going to update it they had to fix that thing and they also got to make the pins fall into each other if you’re going to add that Spinney thing you should probably make the lane big and that so also with courses too.

There's a few inconsequential glitches that don't take away from the fun. The physics are pretty good. The standard ball will go off course if it is not spun, which is strange, but you get used to it.

If you approach this game as if it is supposed to be a bowing simulation, you’ll hate it. If you realize that bowling is just the underlying metaphor for a very innovative and enjoyable gaming experience, you’ll have a great time. Lots of levels, and lots of challenges requiring fast thinking and timely flicking, make this my favorite new game. The developer should invest in having an English-speaking writer produce an introductory paragraph that sets expectations as I’ve described in this review; without this, I suspect this will disappoint a lot of players who don’t take the time to get into the subtle dynamics that make this a long and satisfying gaming experience.
