Simple, but fun. The physics seem fairly realistic and the bottles of rum are a nice touch.

About This Game
Minimum Requirements
HTC Vive, Oculus Rift, or Windows Mixed Reality system with a reasonable room configuration for swinging your arm in a bowling motion (probably 4'x6' minimum, but larger is better).
Playing Instructions
Use the controller's triggers to pick up and let go of the cannon balls. Bowl underhand or throw them overhand - it's your dream, nobody is going to stop you!
Trailer for those without Flash support (iOS, etc.) available in the Community page.
Developer's Note: This is not a "bowling simulator" and was never intended to be...there are plenty of those with spin physics and scoring out there. The intention of this game was to give my Mom a way to bowl again. She is retired now and her shoulder and wrist injuries prevent her from lifting and throwing a real bowling ball. Through this game, I was able to let her bowl again (on a tropical island no less) and she really enjoys it. If you are an experienced VR gamer, this game is probably not for you...but if you have some people in your life who have never tried VR before or, like my Mom, love recreational bowling but can't do it anymore, have them give it a shot. There are no complicated menu systems, you only need to use one trigger on one controller, and it won't cause simulator sickness since all movements are 1:1 with your own physical movements. I hope you (and/or they) enjoy it!

So horrible. No frame by frame play. No score keeping. No way to put spin on the ball. You hit the pins down and then what? About 2 minutes of gameplay, no wait I found the captain's booty make that three minutes. I knew this title might be a gamble but this is such utter garbage anyone involved should be pushed down a well and I'm being nice about it. DO NOT BUY!!!
this does not work in VR HTC headset at all, will not even appear. How do i return and get my money back?
Reproducibility as a bowling game is very high. The ball feels light bowling. It is a good game with cheap price setting.
Dude, there is literally no way Pirates have not invented bowling just like that. I mean, have you ever played a game so janky and horrible that you have some what fun because it's so hilariously stupid? Well that's exactly what this game is. Besides that, Pirates didn't have any electronics or modern point-counting system back then when they stranded on a lonely island, so what are you guys even talking about, this is perfect.
love bowl :))))
Other than the fact that you can get 6 easy achievements by playing this game, this game is not worth it. Its a simple "bowling" game that looks as if it took maybe an hour to make. I put bowling in quotes simply because there's no real elements to bowling other than throwing balls down a lane at glass bottles. There's no frames, there's no score keeping. There's one level on an island, and that's it.
