Gameplay

As we’re currently in a pandemic, playing online multiplayer games can be a great way to stay sociable while in isolation. Bowling Crew has the same format as Golf Clash where you’re matched with someone random and you take it in turns to hit the pins. With the same rules as regular bowling, it should keep you entertained for some time. It costs chips to enter the matches, but you win them back and more if you win.

If you happen to have a Facebook account, you can play with friends instead of strangers.

Graphics

The graphics when I first entered the game reminded me of Fastlane: Road to Revenge due to what the characters looked like and the vibe of the menu screen. However, the actual gameplay graphics were nothing like Fastlane. In fact, they were great and even better! Each stage is themed with a different bowling alley so things don’t get boring.

Music & Sounds

The music and sounds are very in line with the whole theme of the game with the background noises in the alley and the music before you start a match. There’s no music during the actual gameplay which is a good thing as I feel like too much would be going on at once.

Controls

It took a while to get used to the controls if I’m honest. They weren’t necessarily hard to use but they were very different from any other bowling game I’ve played before. To build up speed with your ball, drag it back and pull it up to release it. I kept getting confused and thought you had to release your finger, but after a while, you get used to having to pull it back up.

The Verdict

As you may or may not know, I absolutely love Golf Clash so this is also a winner for me. I love the competitiveness of playing with Facebook friends or random strangers and the amazing graphics they present. Bowling Crew will definitely be one game I’m keeping on my phone, just like how I still have Golf Clash.
