Simple bowling game, but interesting enough to get my autistic son's attention. So far he enjoys it.

This bowling game is not very challenging. I was able to get strike after strike using the second bowler and a 9 lb ball. The pin strikes are very trivial and they sound like water drops on a pie pan. To top it off, the music is REAL annoying and repetitive which was common in early NES games. Just imagine hearing the Loony Tunes intro over and over and you'll get the idea. Higher quality bowling games are out there, so don't waste your time or money on this forgettable release.

The game play has been done nicely for an NES bowling game. Everything is smooth and transitional. This is a 4-player game, which always increases the game play value. Since the NES console only has 2 controller ports, you must plug 2 controllers in and swap controllers for 4 people to play. There are 5 different lanes you can play on, each lane with a unique color scheme and oil pattern. In addition, there are four characters you can choose to be, and you can also change the weight of your ball. Like in real life, all of these different things, though you may not think it, drastically affects your game. When you finally get onto the lane with all the options picked out, there are 3 variable things that you choose to throw the ball. First, you must choose the position on the lane that you will stand to throw the ball, then you must choose how much you want the ball to curve (you can curve left or right, it doesn't matter), then you must choose the power of the shot. The curve and power move up and down, and you must press A to stop them, so it's really hard to choose the same thing every time. After you choose these 3 things, you will throw the ball down the lane. It's pretty hard to get a strike, especially if you're a first time player of this game. However, once you start playing more and more, you will discover sweet spots where you stand and throw the ball to get a strike every time. Though, it's still really hard to throw a strike even after you find a sweet spot. Also, splits are really easy to pick up. I can make the 7-10 split every time. Other nice things about the game play of when you are on the lane is a top-view of the lane and the pins on the right side of the screen, and the fact that you can press B at any time to see what you bowled every frame of the game.Read full review
