Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
The game is fun and all but after you get to level 16 you stop getting alot of money from leveling up we were getting over 12k for leveling up and then level 16 and we get $120 fix that.
This app makes the gameplay so slow to encourage you to watch several ads to have a somewhat bearable experience.
We know it seems simple but leaderboards will draw a lot more attention and will simply get more people playing drawing in more and more play time etc.
We love the game but Im noticing that the pins dont knock over other pins after the person hits it. We work at a bowling alley and its would be really cool to see something like that in the game.
There are way to many adds and there is no way to skip them. Would not recommend this game.
We just wanna say this is a great app and bowling is one of our favorite games to play or watch.
3 stars but can be so much better if you add sounds because ur waiting to get coins and its silent and makes it boring (sound effects like hitting the pins and music etc) would be cool to add physics to the pins when the ball hits them they fall over vs actually getting smacked around and final thing would be cool is add some basic effect on the screen yk strike animations gutter balls etc would be a little cool.
Theres no sound, that breaks the whole game for us and it takes to long to make progress so all we can do is watch adds in order to make progress.
It cant be called idle bowling if it cannot correctly accumulate the income while youre idol.
Ball-pin physics are very poor. Game is ad-bait.
We're no strangers to love You know the rules and so do we A full commitment's what we're thinking of You wouldn't get this from any other guy we just wanna tell you how we're feeling Gotta make you understand Never gonna give you up Never gonna let you down Never gonna run around and desert you Never gonna make you cry Never gonna say goodbye Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you We've known each other for so long Your heart's been aching but you're too shy to say it Inside we both know what's been going on We know the game and we're gonna play it And if you ask us how we're feeling Don't tell us you're too blind to see Never gonna give you up Never gonna let you down Never gonna run around and desert you Never gonna make you cry Never gonna say goodbye Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you Never gonna give you up Never gonna let you down Never gonna run around and desert you Never gonna make you cry Never gonna say goodbye Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you Never gonna give, never gonna give (Give you up) (Ooh) Never gonna give, never gonna give (Give you up) We've known each other for so long Your heart's been aching but you're too shy to say it Inside we both know what's been going on We know the game and we're gonna play it we just wanna tell you how we're feeling Gotta make you understand Never gonna give you up Never gonna let you down Never gonna run around and desert you Never gonna make you cry Never gonna say goodbye Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you Never gonna give you up Never gonna let you down Never gonna run around and desert you Never gonna make you cry Never gonna say goodbye Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you Never gonna give you up Never gonna let you down Never gonna run around and desert you Never gonna make you cry.
Im sick of the games this company makes. All ads. Constant ads. Ad in the upper left, ad in the upper right. Ad bouncing around the screen. And the bonuses are for seconds at a time. Youre watching more ads than playing the game.
Only way to progress you need to watch an ad. Once you get to level 15 the game consistently rewards you with only $308 dollars, meanwhile upgrades cost 114k.
Do not get it takes sooo long to progress. And when we gave it a 1 star it switched it to a 2 star.
Pathetic!!! Literally not a game. All you do is watch ads the entire time. On occasion you may see a bit of gameplay, but youre not going to play it. AWFUL.
Same as any progression game only with more ads. Even if you dont choose to click on the ad boosts, it still forces an ad to you when you upgrade things naturally in the game.
Way too many long ads to watch for minimal rewards. Very little money gained during idle times. Cost of upgrades jump very high very fast.
Way too many ads, and without the option to pay to get rid of them.
Way to many ads plus theyre all long. We understand the need for them but this is ridiculous. Delete.
It is fun to watch the characters bowl and it is so cool.
You probably see this on every game review, however this time it is not over exaggerated. When we mean adds we mean the game trying to get you to watch an add to help you through the game. The problem with this is it covers the game and you cant see half the lanes.
Why upgrade ball return speed if bowlers take forever to grab the ball. Stupid.
They literally fly all over the screen to upgrade your stuff and but to do them you must watch ads.
This company neon plays is ad hungry wouldnt even give you one star.
We love playing bowling thats why.
We were raise in bowling alley work at one now Bowl is life.
More ad focused than any game Ive seen.
It was kinda fun but there are way too many ads on the screen and as soon as one leaves, another takes it place.
This game slows down incredibly quickly. Two upgrades in and youre left waiting for a while. The screen is covered in ad buttons to speed things up and youre shown a forced ad on occasion. We like the concept and the visuals are nice, but its sole purpose is to make money through ads.
Way too many ad popups that covers content. Cant tell how many pins a person makes on the lanes if you add additional lanes.
Doesnt keep going when its closed like most idle games, and focuses more on ads than any other game ive ever played.
To describe this. Horrible. Do not waste your time.
