[h1]Experienced on the Oculus Rift[/h1] You can view my gameplay & initial impressions review here: https://youtu.be/gAFOZUdagp4 VR Mini Bowling 2 is a combination of arcade bowling and mini golf. If you enjoyed the first VR Mini Bowling game, then you'll definitely enjoy this follow up. I had fun and I think it's something that would be enjoyable for the whole family. There are 5 (10 lane) courses, along with 5 different modes. You have your standard mode with power-ups, a mode without power-ups, stroke mode (which counts the amount of strokes to get all pins down), timed mode, and finally just normal (traditional) bowling. The power-ups include wacky things like making the bowling ball a lot bigger or have it split up into three bowling balls, a fast ball, and a bowling ball with an orbiting smaller bowling ball. You can teleport around the area. You press trigger to automatically get the bowling ball to your hand. The physics are not realistic, but it's arcade fun anyways. You ...

About This Game
Please Note: If you already own VR Mini Bowling 1, you can use the 'Mini Bowling Upgrade Bundle' to buy VRMB2 at a lower price. If you do not yet own VRMB1, then I only recommend buying VRMB2 as it contains everything that VRMB1 has, plus more!

- Personal best statistics for each lane and scoring mode
- Customizable Sound Effects

- When playing multiplayer, you can now switch players whenever you want. Each player can play thru all lanes at once, switch every 1 lane, every 3 lanes, etc.

Standard Mode:
The newest game mode! Use powerups to boost your game and try to get the highest score possible!
No Powerups Mode:
Normal bowling rules apply, and no powerups are available. Try to get the highest score possible!
Stroke Play Mode:
This mode will put your skills to the test! Use powerups to you help knock down all of the pins in as few throws as possible.
Rush Play Mode:
Speed is the key in this mode. Knock down all of the pins as quickly as possible! You get unlimited throws in this mode so fire away!
Normal Bowling Mode:
Feel like changing it up and playing a regular game of bowling? You can! Play with or without Powerups, try Active Spin mode (you change the spin on the ball as it goes down the lane) and even change the oil pattern on the lane!

User Reviews
A very casual, laid back and fun game to play! Simple yet novel idea, would be a great party game, except now with social distancing it def could use an online multiplayer mode! Simple yet novel and creative idea, well executed and performs/handles well.
Really enjoyable and I like the creativity of the courses. The only thing I wish is that they would add custom courses or a steam workshop as that would add so much extra playtime to the game.
Good game, maps loads fast, has good scenery. Would recommend
I like the concept of this game and it can be quite fun, but it has a game breaking bug: > If you press the button to pick up the bowling ball too early, the game will not let you pick it up at all. Thus forcing you to restart. If it happened rarely I could ignore it, but it happens fairly constantly; Even when I tried to avoid it by waiting for the bowling ball to fully reload to attempt to pick it up.
