Good game

This is a good game, I like it, while it may not be the same game as it was years ago, I still have a good time playing it and it works great on my iPhone 17 Pro Max, highly recommend if you’re looking for a bowing game

iOS 26 issues

Game quits frequently and iPhone 16 heats up big time. Processor is stressing!

I give this version of action bowling a three out of five stars.

This version will not let me customize bowling balls or music. Can someone fix that?

Needs work

Couldn’t bowl the ball half the time, random direction changes. Ended up deleting it as it was so annoying
