### 2/5 — Bring back the old version and keep it at the first version

*2026-04-16, version 2.51*

I like it, but I want the real old 1st version back with the bowling balls with the most beautiful skins than these ones the classic bowling pins the classic locations and for the second row of the three balls make sure they’re the normal ones and not the ones that have sparks coming out and since the other locations had the same position as the ball except for the beach location, make sure the beach location has the ball in a different position, please

### 2/5 — No spin

*2026-03-27, version 2.51*

Cannot get no spin button to work

### 3/5 — Wish some of the original stuff was in there

*2025-10-10, version 2.51*

I like this game but I kind of wish and want the original balls and pins back like from the 1st version oh especially the shape of the pins.

### 2/5 — Controls a Problem

*2024-05-28, version 2.51*

For each frame, controls have to be reset. I like using the none feature, but it has to be continually reset. Can this be fixed?

### 4/5 — Game operation

*2024-01-29, version 2.51*

LOVE, LOVE this game. 
My one complaint is that in between throwing one ball and getting in to throw the next ball is too long. It’s annoying or frustrating that it takes so much time before I can throw the next ball; as I’m ready. 
My opinion is, this could be solved by finding another way to indicate to the player the pin counts and especially flashing the frame number. It flashes right in the middle of the screen and you can’t throw the next ball until it’s gone. 
That whole business really isn’t that necessary especially when your just playing against yourself…..for fun.
Really hope you can improve that timing. I’d like to stay with your game, graphics and everything else are great, etc.

### 4/5 — Suggestion

*2023-01-09, version 2.50*

I have been playing for a couple of years now enjoy the game of bowling.. I was wondering if you could add a winter scene to the game, would be awesome?

### 4/5 — Good but…

*2022-05-25, version 2.47*

The bowling pins look wired. In bowling Paradise 3 the bowling pins look a lot better.

### 3/5 — Need sound controls in settings

*2022-01-24, version 2.47*

### 3/5 — I love the game, but ....

*2019-04-19, version 2.29*

### 1/5 — Play Belmonte’s bowling game

*2019-12-08, version 2.32*

Bad mechanics, not fun

### 1/5 — Can’t turn off screeching fireworks noises!

*2018-03-26, version 2.25*

Can’t turn down or off fireworks explosions sounds at the end of each game.  If you are wearing earplugs to be quiet for those around you it’s so loud it hurts. There are controls for all other sounds for this game. Why not for this totally obnoxious one?

### 1/5 — Need updates

*2017-12-13, version 2.25*

Please add the bowling indicator red line to help with lining up for the strike. The old bowling app had it and it was very helpful. 
Thank you.

### 1/5 — BOO

*2016-10-23, version 2.17*

WOW you guys really need to take this game off of the App Store or fix it. This game keeps glitching every time you get two strikes and your going for a turkey. Please fix this glitch this is why I deleted it in the first place and redownloading and I really like this game so please fix this problem and I read some of the other comments and I realized there were complaints about this problem so please fix this proble.

### 1/5 — Paradise bowling

*2015-12-23, version 2.17*

Don't waste your time on this. Really frustrating. Crashes every time you get two strikes!! Why bother!

I just love this game! It’s fair, and fun!

### 5/5 — Miss the old version.

I miss the old Version

### 5/5 — Bowling Paradise

*2024-12-08, version 2.51*

I love this bowling game! It’s so much fun💯👍🏽💞

### 5/5 — Amazing Bowling paradise

*2023-03-13, version 2.51*

I especially like the dolphins in the beach scene.  Hmm how about a road runner or a prairie dog in the canyon and camping. Maybe the dolphins could occasionally knock  some pins down or instead of monkey island one where you play a round of bowlng with the road runner or prairie dogs. Think fun and you will have the top game and its fun as it is

### 5/5 — Great,But I have some suggestions

*2022-04-13, version 2.47*

I have played bowling paradise for 7 years. It’s a good game.At first ,there’s a map called slope, but the creators removed it since bp2. I wonder whether you can make this map back because I really like to bowl in the nature. Look forward to hearing you all

### 5/5 — So good but a problem

*2021-06-01, version 2.46*

In 2019 I had so much fun but it soon updated and it is the same way that ultimate bowling paradise is and my favorite aqua pin is gone and I just want it back so if you guys can fix it back to the way it used to be I will like it so much more

### 5/5 — Ads

*2020-02-07, version 2.32*

I have purchased this app before and never had the annoying ads. I think I upgraded to get rid of those stupid ads. I'd rather delete the app because it a not what I wanted and or had previously.

### 5/5 — Versatile - you’ll love it

*2019-09-11, version 2.32*

You have power over the direction of the ball, can choose pins and ball design, and space or paradise backgrounds!  Love it.  Don’t even mind the celebratory fireworks at the end, however must change their screechy sound effects.  Great game - best bowling app ever.

### 5/5 — Bowling Paradise

*2019-04-05, version 2.28*

I have enjoyed playing this game for about 4 or 5. years now and I have never had any problems with it.I really enjoy playing it and now the addition of the disk to bowl with just makes it better!!!!

### 5/5 — Super

*2018-05-27, version 2.25*

I love it
