Let's Bowl VR - Bowling Game

I really really wish I could sit down with the devs of this game and help them understand the ins and outs of bowling. As the game stands right now I would not call it real bowling. The game feels really good and looks really good however as of right now that is all it has. The cons of this games are -The physics of "hooking" the ball are completely off. A bowling ball does not hook as soon as it hits the lane as this game portrays, instead the ball hits the lane and slides beacuase there is oil on the lane which this games calls "reflection" in the graphics settings. Oil on the lane is very important to the sport of bowling. -This just might be me but the teleport function feels a litte wonky and seems to get me all turned around even when i try to make it face a certain way. Other than that this game is fun to me and since I love the sport of bowling so much I really want to see this game improve and become a more realistic bowling game. Hopefully the devs are working hard on ...

No ability to change the orientation of the room. "Oil" physics on the lane are non existant and as a result it makes it pointless to attempt any curve on the ball. It looks pretty I suppose but unless you enjoy taking one step and throwing a straight ball, not realistic at all. As it stands, I can't recommend this, especially for the price. Edit - Forgot to mention the permanently glued to your hand tablet. Most bowlers like to start the run approach by placing 2 hands on the ball, so this is not great.... Edit Edit - VR Chat has a bowling room that provides a very similar experience to this, without a lot of the flaws and with multiplayer (for better or worse)..... for free. Just sayin.......

Not a single review so I had to find out for myself. 7 locations avilable now. 18 locations in total. They all look awesome and unique. Whether you wanna play in an old school 70's style bowling alley or relax inside a mansion under a chandelier. There's so many. I'm looking forward to the garage looking one with the Lamborghini parked next to you. No multiplayer YET. I was looking through for Left handed option. I couldn't find it! I said, oh no... I bowled maybe 4 times in my life. But holding the ball it feels a little small. Am I wrong? I wanna know what you people think! Maybe they can slightly upscale everything. I don't know. I tried to make the ball curve/spin but hit gutters. I think I can see it slightly curve. When I got 2 strikes in a row I was questioning myself. 8 mins into a solo game and it crashed. I just restart because there is almost no loading times. Everything looks really good. I just couldn't believe the left-hand option was missing. It will def...

Looks great and has potential to be great. Currently EA here's a few things that would make it better: - Environments look great, but wish I could teleport around in them. - Needs a simple view reset (teleport would solve this) hitting my couch on my follow through. - Annoying tablet is always attached to left hand, need a way to hide. - Wish I could make a fist, be able to pick up bottles ala Sportsbar. - Needs in-game SS adjustments - Music is terrible, doesn't fit its great visual sytle. - Wish the score was kept on those cool-looking scoreboards in the environment. - Also tried on Rift but no luck, can't get past first menu. Touch controls feel more natural for bowling. Lots of great potential here, excited to see it finished.

The game itself looks great. In saying this, the game play removes the immersion that the environment is creating. I will play again once another update comes through. Until then, Here are some issues/Suggestions. My experience is related through RIFT gameplay... -Ball Spin still does not simulate a true hook release -Though I get the concept of the off hand pinned tablet, it has to go. The off hand should still be in the game, however it should remain a hand. I would also add some sort of collision property to it as in most cases the starting position for a bowler has both hands involved in some fashion. The 2 hand hook is also becoming very popular and this would allow possible addition for this in the future. * Replace the tablet with an overhead score screen. Stikes and spares should also include various cycled animations. This could also then show the remaining pins as the tablet does currently. -Teleportation is bad. There needs to be a way to set forward view as well as a ...

BUY THIS GAME so they can quit their job as Nuclear Scientists and do this full time. Id loved to see this finished and future games made by these guys You truly feel as if your in a bowling alley. Game is alot of fun and alot of different achievements and rewards. I haven't bowled in years but this brings back the excitement that I remember when getting a string of strikes or a good game. (As of 12/23/17) After every update more features and or more realism is added to the game. Not perfect yet. Practice and technique will improve your scores. Have more time on this game than any other vr game I own. 980ti Oculus

No WMR support yet, so you get a weird double vision thing happening. Once that is added I will TOTALLY buy this game and update my review... That said, it looks really well designed, lots of different environments, and one of those games that you can keep coming back and playing. Keep up the good work, devs!

This isn’t what I expected. The game play is ok... and the graphics are not as good as I’d have expected. I do enjoy bowling and was looking forward to it. The teleport system isn’t the best and I don’t think the gameplay is accurate. If it was cheaper I’d say yep def buy it but for the price as it stands I don’t think it’s a must have game.

Overall I recommend this game however, they need to add free movement (forward, backward, turn) or at least a centering button as this is what keeps me from playing this game more often. It's way too hard to turn using the current system of "teleport movement". If there was a rating scale I would rate this 4 out of 10 but just with better movement, it would be 9 out of 10. That's how dramatic the lack of movement is. If I am mistaken and there is something I can do in settings, please tell me as the lack of ability to move or center really makes this otherwise awesome game hard to play. I saw this game on a YouTube review and was pissed that it wasn't available for the only VR headset I had, PSVR. Naturally when I bought a HTC Vive headset this was one of the first games I bought. I loved the idea of bowling in my own home and was able to get a few strikes, however, I was sad to see that the game was so underdeveloped and with so many bugs but I understood as it was in EARLY ACCESS. I...

Nope. Had potential. Great graphics, plenty of options, but the dev is moving slowly and the physics and lack of multiplayer ruin this game. I used to bowl (near pro level tournaments) and can't stand the fact that I can throw the ball down the lane overhand and get better results than actually trying. There's a better option now. I will update this if things change.
