Not quite there….
Okay, I’ve been bowling for over 30 years and can say this game has potential but isn’t quite there as far as pin action or physics.
The ball weight feels like an 8lb ball. Getting it to drive is a chore. It feels like it’s still spinning when it gets to the pins. Then again this game suffers from a lot of “same shot, different result.” Who knows where your release point will actually be or if you gave it enough power. Who knows whether the ball will carry, break early or even start to roll by the time it gets to the pins.
Speaking of the pins. I could throw the same shot and get the same ball motion every time and the ball will seem to hit them different every time. Leaving weird splits that only a super light ball that can’t drive really well will leave. I’ve had pins hit a single standing pin multiple times for it not to even fall, and pins barely tap other pins to make them fall. It’s very inconsistent.
Simply put, the game needs work. The devs need to hit a real bowling alley and talk with some club pros.
Not a good game but an okay one at best.

Letters too big
Please can you make the letters a bit smaller please if you do!
Good, but a slight problem
Everyone loves Strike!, right? When I opened the game, I saw your usual TouchMechanics loading screen. Then all of a sudden, an ad pops up and my game crashed and I had to wait for what feels like FOREVER for it to load. TouchMechanics, whatever you do, PLEASE FIX THIS IN YOUR NEXT UPDATE! I can’t take this anymore.

Ads
Annoying Ads appearing on top of screens. I hate Ads.
Not compatible with most recent Apple TV remotes
As far as I can work out you’ll need an older Apple TV remote with 3 axis gyroscope to get this to work. It used to be great fun for parties but sadly, since I upgraded my Apple TV box it’s just a waste of storage space.
Works again on Apple TV
Yes! Works once again on Apple TV 3rd Gen. Just a brilliant game. Love it.
The Best
This is THE BEST Tenpin Bowling game. Easy to play yet still challenging. I’ve tried all the other Bowling games available and then deleted them all. I’ve been playing for a couple of years now and have only bowled 7 perfect games. But I keep trying. Very Highly recommend 👍🏻❤️😁
Strike! Ten Pin Bowling
Amazingly realistic (and frustrating) recreation of true Atlantic Canada / New England candlepin bowlpin. Tenpin, duckpin (10) and rubber duckpin (10) games and drills also included. Hours of fun. To the creators, please investigate bringing the 5 pin 'point value pins' duckpin variant into the package.

Strike!
I can’t select a ball when i change to candlepins, rubberband duckpins and duckpins. Do you please added this ball selection for candlepins, rubberband duckpins and duckpins in the next update with all the balls getting free to unlock. Thank You!
Great
Great game. I bought it for a quick fix, but it’s hard not to want to play another frame. So addictive. I paid to remove the ads and for a couple of ball packs to support the devs as they’ve done a terrific job with this.
