The game engine itself isn't horrible, but could definitely use improvement. What really killed this game for me though was losing all of my progress without warning. I've had to start over three times now. This is something that needs to be fixed ASAP.
Amazing!!! :D

This game is really frickin' awesome. The graphics are great, the physics are the best I've ever seen! One problem I've had is sometimes the game won't let be throw a shot when I want to throw it in a certain spot. I think it's just a minor bug that can be fixed. Anyway, great job and keep up the good work! :D
Very Enjoyable....

As an avid bowler I greatly enjoy this game. I have played many from the App Store and the physics engine in this game is by far the best. I'm sure it is a carryover from the Brunswick PC version from at least 15 years or so ago. However, there is room to grow. A better understanding of how to use equipment upgrades to enhance skills is necessary. I played for a couple of weeks in frustration before I even picked up on the concept. Still don't quite understand how upgrade slots, levels of equipment and so forth really build on each other. Plus all but a few balls seem to have the same rating, so why change until you have enough cash/credit to get a ball with a higher hook rating? The entire process needs some type of Help Function. The bowling geek in me would also love to see oil patterns introduced either in a "Pro" option or higher tournament levels to replicate what truly transpire on the lane. That would be very cool and could also become a learning aid for actual bowling. Additionally, an option to challenge friends either Facebook or direct connect would be cool. Maybe even the formation of online leagues. Now that would be something else. As you can tell I truly am the bowling geek here, but from my vantage point, this game has some huge growth potential. This title /franchise has been a bit stagnant over time as the sport of bowling itself has been, but it would be very cool if this game could progress, even if Brunswick has to sell the rights as they are getting out of the bowling industry. Farsighted, please don't abandon the game. Between this and Pinball Arcade you have a couple of winners.
Needs improvement

Need the ability to throw the ball faster or heavier oil patterns. Can't use any ball but the ringer. Then I watch my opponent crank the mastermind and it just skids then flips? I throw my intellect and it hooks on the spot across the lane.
Good game poor programming!!!!

I love this game. Being an avid bowler this game is most realistic. But every week I lose my progress. I have officially deleted the app. Disappointing. All the time and energy spent to beat everyone, to lose it all for nothing. Dumb dumb dumb!
Very nice game

This game is good and addicting. Just a couple of issues: I have Pinball Arcade and I see no new ball in equipment. Also, I have spotted a bug, although it happened only once. Using a blast ball, it knocked down all the pins but scored an open frame with 9 pins hit. Strange.
Great bowling game

This game is awesome! I play everyday. Today a message popped up saying there should be a Farsight ball since I play Pinball Arcade too, but I don't see it anywhere.
Very fun game

Great physics and amazing graphics. I only just discovered that you can add upgrades to each piece of equipment. Could use a bit better help and explanation.
Good game but needs work

Good graphics but pin physics need to be worked on. It needs to be online play head to head threw Game Center. Also my progress should be the same on all devises I play it on. It should carry over on your account from all devices.
